    How much does social media management cost for a small service business?

    Reviewed by Taylor Moses, Co-Founder, Strategy & Web·

    Direct Answer

    Social media management for a U.S. service business costs $500 to $5,000+ per month depending on platforms, content type, and engagement scope. Leads to Sales charges $16 per hour for 24 hours per week ($1,536 per month) on the standard social program — covering content, posting, community engagement, and monthly reporting.

    Social media management costs five hundred to five thousand dollars a month. Leads to Sales runs twenty-four hours a week at sixteen dollars an hour.

    Cheaper offers (~$200/month) are usually scheduling-only services — no original creative, no engagement, minimal reporting.

    Mid-tier ($1,000–$2,500) is the right fit for most service businesses: 12–20 posts per platform per month plus engagement.
