- Captions, hashtags, scheduling
- Creative direction (if included)
- Monthly management/retainer fee

- Community management (hours)
- Analytics/reporting
- Optional ad support (creative + management)

Social Media Pricing Models (Retainers, Packages, and Hourly)
Social media work is typically billed in one of these ways:
1) Monthly retainer
A fixed fee billed monthly for a defined scope (platforms + deliverables). Most common for ongoing management.
2) Packages
Bundle deliverables like “12 posts + 4 reels + reporting.” Great for clear expectations.
3) Per deliverable
Price per post, reel, or story set. Useful for one-off campaigns.
4) Hourly
Common for consulting, audits, or community management support.
Your invoice template should reflect the model you use and show deliverables clearly so clients can verify value.
Deliverables, Approvals, and Revision Limits
Social media projects can slow down when approvals are unclear. Use invoice fields to set expectations.
Best practices- Include a deliverables field (posts/reels/stories)
- Include an approval deadline or review cadence
- Include revision limits (for example, 1–2 rounds)
- Extra revision rounds
- Additional cut-downs or versions of content
- Additional platforms or extra posting frequency
Paid Ads Support vs Ad Spend (Avoid Confusion)
Clients often confuse ad management fees with ad spend.
Ad spend- Money paid directly to platforms (Meta, TikTok, etc.)
- Not revenue to the manager/agency
- Creative, setup, optimization, reporting
- Billed as a service fee on the invoice
