Our price, as a reference point
Our Instagram plan is a custom quote based on your goals (start with a $299 one-month pilot; ongoing plans are indicatively $450–$850 a month) for 30 content assets: 15 Reels and 15 posts (feed posts or carousels), with research, a monthly calendar, captions, hashtags and a monthly review. It is the same price as our Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube plans, or part of the Instagram + Facebook + YouTube bundle at $1,200 per month.
We do not quote "average Instagram management prices" because published averages tend to come from small or self-reported samples. Compare specific deliverables instead.

What drives an Instagram quote
- Reels versus static posts. Editing a Reel (hook, cuts, captions, cover, audio) takes far longer than a single graphic.
- Who supplies footage. Editing your clips is cheaper than a provider filming on location.
- Stories. Daily Stories are a separate workload; ask whether they are included.
- Community management. Replies to comments and DMs, and during which hours.
- Ads. Organic management and ad management are different jobs, and ad spend is always extra.
- Reporting. A screenshot of follower numbers is not the same as a review of reach, saves, shares and profile actions.
Questions to ask before you sign
- How many Reels, carousels, single posts and Stories will I get each month?
- Who writes captions, and who approves them?
- Do you edit my footage, or do I need to hire a photographer?
- Are replies to comments and messages included? Within what hours?
- What does the monthly report contain?
- Is there a minimum term or notice period?
- Do you promise follower numbers? (An honest answer is no.)
Red flags
- Guaranteed follower or view numbers, which usually means bought engagement. Buying fake indicators of social media influence is prohibited in the US under the FTC rule on reviews and testimonials (The Consumer Reviews and Testimonials Rule: Questions and Answers).
- No asset count, only "regular posting".
- Asking for your password instead of using proper access tools.
- Creator collaborations without ad disclosure (Disclosures 101 for Social Media Influencers; Influencers' guide to making clear that ads are ads).
Which businesses need more than one platform?
Instagram on its own works well for visual local businesses such as cafes, salons and fashion brands. If you also rely on events, older customers or local groups, Facebook is often worth adding. See Instagram management and our pricing.
