October 1 launch includes a $4,000+ social media management giveaway for one local business

DAVENPORT, IOWA, September 21, 2026 — With customers harder to reach and teams already stretched thin, businesses are looking for better ways to grow their audience without adding more work.

On Thursday, October 1, McFarlane Marketing will launch Social Studio OS™, a human-led, AI-assisted social media operating system created to help businesses grow their social media presence strategically, consistently, and efficiently.

The free launch event will take place from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at Eastern Iowa Community College, Community Room 133, 101 W. 3rd Street in Davenport.

One established business attending the event will receive a three-month Social Media Management Package valued at more than $4,000. The package includes strategic guidance, content development, social media management through the platform, and more. The selected business must be present to win.

Social Studio OS™ was built to address a challenge many businesses face: knowing they need to maintain an active social presence, but not always having the time, staff, or structure to do it well.

The platform brings strategy, content creation, approvals, publishing, engagement, growth planning, lead generation, collaboration, and performance measurement into one connected system. Its approach is intentionally human led, AI assisted, and human approved, with AI driving strategy and growth planning, while humans shape the voice and approve every piece of content before it goes out.

McFarlane Marketing developed the platform through hands-on work with real client accounts, campaigns, and performance data. Businesses managed through the system have recorded results including a 980% increase in views and a 759% increase in engagement over a 3 month period.

“Most businesses know they need to do more with social media, but they don’t always have the time, the team, or the strategy to do it well,” said Sharon Cumberbatch, CEO and Founder of McFarlane Marketing. “Social Studio OS™ was created to give businesses a smarter way to handle the work, using AI to drive strategy and growth decisions so results doesn't depend on guesswork."

Attendees will join the official ribbon cutting, see a live demonstration of Social Studio OS™, explore early access, and enjoy light bites, networking, a mobile photoboth, and more. Learn more: https://socialstudio.agency

The first five businesses that sign up at the event will also receive special launch pricing and a complimentary social media audit.
