If you've ever wondered "how much does it actually cost to have my social media managed?", this blog has your answer. At Social Hippo we understand better than anyone that as an entrepreneur you're not just looking for a price tag, but for a partner who adds real value to your brand with dedication and expertise. In this blog we zoom in on what social media management involves, what it costs, and above all why Social Hippo is the perfect choice for your digital strategy.
Social media management prices
Before you scroll on in search of actual numbers, it's worth knowing what's actually included in social media management. There's far more behind every post preview you receive. In other words: we want you to know what you're paying for. It's also worth knowing that the price you see on our website is the price you pay. So what exactly is included in social media management?
Optimising your profiles
A strong social media profile is the foundation of your success. We make sure your profiles are optimised down to the last detail, from how the page is filled in to the profile picture and banner. Don't have a business profile yet? No worries, we take care of the design, complete your page with the right information and keep your profile up to date.
Content planning
Our Hippos build a strategic content plan with a structured approach, where every post is carefully planned and timed. We also make sure there's a balanced content mix that alternates between different pillars.
Creating posts from A to Z
From coming up with the concept to the creation, and from revision to publication — every post is created with care by our Hippos to represent your brand online in the best possible way. Got input of your own? Then we'll build a nice proposal around it with a creative twist.
Fast communication through WhatsApp
Your time is valuable, we know that. That's why we communicate with our clients in a fast, efficient and low-threshold way through WhatsApp. You also get a dedicated contact person for all your questions and content, who you can always turn to. New photo or video material is easy to send through WhatsApp too, straight from your own smartphone.
Approving posts in advance
Outsourcing your social media can feel daunting — handing over control isn't easy. Fortunately that's not the case at Social Hippo, where you keep full control over your channels. More than that: before anything is published, you get the chance to approve or request changes to every post.
Publishing at the right moment
Timing is crucial in social media. Based on your statistics and the algorithm, we choose the best moment to post each week. That way your posts generate optimal visibility and perform as well as possible.
Social media management: the work behind the scenes
Behind every post there's a world of work: from market research to competitor analysis, the actual content creation and several rounds of revision. At Social Hippo we understand more than ever that quality takes time, and we make sure every minute counts.

Social media management for extra growth
Alongside our social media packages, which you put together entirely yourself, you can also opt for extra options to give your channels a boost: paid campaigns or our Instagram Growth Service. With paid campaigns we advertise in your name on Facebook and Instagram and target your specific audience. Our Instagram Growth Service boosts your follower count and expands your community with real followers who also interact with your posts.
