💻 How Much Should a Freelance Social Media Manager Charge? 💸 One of the biggest questions in the freelance world: What’s the right rate for my services? If you’re a social media manager—or hiring one—here’s the scoop on current rates: Hourly Rates: 💼 Beginners: $20–$50/hour 🎯 Mid-level: $50–$100/hour 🌟 Experts: $100–$200/hour+ Monthly Retainers (1–3 platforms): 💡 Entry-level: $500–$1,500/month 🚀 Mid-tier: $1,500–$3,500/month 💎 Expert-level: $3,500–$7,500+ Project Rates: 📝 Strategy Development: $1,000–$5,000+ 📱 Content Creation: $50–$500/post 🎯 Ad Campaigns: $500–$5,000/month (plus ad spend) But rates aren’t just about numbers—they’re about VALUE. A skilled social media manager doesn’t just post—they drive engagement, boost brand visibility, and generate leads. ⚡ Whether you're a freelancer or a client, remember: cheap doesn’t equal effective, and premium isn’t just a price tag—it’s expertise, strategy, and ROI. #freelancerates #socialmediamanager #pricingtips #freelancebusiness

To be found you need to be findable. And that’s how we help our clients as digital marketing professionals. We know how to make that happen. The client needs to understand their numbers (their customer LTV etc) so we can help forecast their CPL/CPA etc (if they don’t already know). Once we know for every £1 invested = £X in return we can effectively communicate our value in a factual and profitable way through the eyes of our clients. It’s not just about “why” you need what we do, it’s about the ROI. We have to help those with a limited understanding of digital marketing (not their fault!) see the true value and return of their investment when they hire us and our teams.

This is an issue everywhere if the positioning and lead quality are off. "Social media manager" is a commodity, so the prices are commoditised. And no, it's not a dig at them. "Web development" is a commodity, too. I learned it the hard way. You can get a website for free, for a tenner, for hundred quid. But there's a market where you *need* to get it for low or mid-five digits. "Web development/design" is a useless term because it describes everything from Wix, through freelancers, all the way to the top 0.01% of companies in the industry. Can you succeed as a "social media manager" or a "web developer" and get those "commoditised" prospects to pay more? Yeah. But that's a game of education, not selling your services. And it's a longer, harder, and imo much less exciting game. Niche down. Specialise. Escape commoditised services and you stop talking about prices like that. There's a big enough market to do that. And specialisation is always better than an all-in-one approach. We need to see more of that. It's scary, especially for freelancers/solopreneurs, but you gotta do it at some point. It was scary for us, too - and NerdCow is still too many things for too many people, after several iterations. Working hard to tweak it further. Making the first step is the most important thing. PS Sometimes, your positioning will be spot on and people will still get in touch with you for the wrong reasons. 🤷♀️ Such is life. But if you're tired of hearing the same thing, it might be a sign to change things up.

“I only have a budget of £100 for full-service social media management, sorry” The gut-wrenching words of a potential client as a freelancer. I don't think it's ALWAYS the case that clients don't want to pay us more 👀 It's often that they don't understand what Social Media Managers even do, or the ROl of hiring one & that's the tea ☕️ By hiring a social media manager, your business can: 📸 post consistently online 🚀 boost brand awareness 👋 drive customer engagement 📈 increase website traffic 👀 stay ahead of the competition & SO MUCH MORE Social Media Managers often wear many, many, many hats 🧢, but are often under-appreciated. It's 100% worth investing in the RIGHT Social Media Manager for your business. Has a conversation ever went like this between you & a potential client? Did you manage to convince them that it’s worth the investment? I’d love to know! 👇 ——— If you’re looking for a freelance Social Media Manager, I have 5 years+ experience in the social space.

Why I decided AGAINST having a niche as a freelance Social Media Manager… Despite it being one of the most common tips for becoming a SMM, I don’t think it’s necessary, and here’s why: 👉 My expertise is in social media, NOT the client's industry - the fundamentals of the strategy can be applied to a variety of businesses. 👉 I enjoy working in different industries; it means no day is the same, which is one of my favourite parts of the job. 👉 It broadens my overall skill set, giving me a range of experience that helps me keep up with the ever-changing digital landscape. 👉 It opens up healthy opportunities as my clients trust me for my social media experience, not just because I specialise in their field. I work with clients in many different industries, and for me, it works perfectly. But I would love to know others' thoughts on this. #socialmediamanager #socialmediamarketing #marketingfreelance #freelancer #freelancrjourney #marketing #digitalmarketing #marketingtips
