SMM has no fixed price: it depends on how many photos, reels, posters and ad campaigns you need per month. At Foster the minimum order is 500 ₼ per month, and the calculator works out the exact amount in a minute.
What drives the price
Content volume matters most. Between 10 and 30 photos a month, or one and eight reels, there is shooting, editing and design time — and that is where the price difference comes from.
The second factor is account management: scheduled posts, stories, replies to comments and direct messages. The third is targeted advertising.
- Photo shoot (with a minimum monthly volume)
- Reels and video: script, shooting, editing
- Design and motion: posters, stories, animation
- Account management: posts, stories, replies
- Targeting: setting up and running Meta campaigns
The ad budget does not go to the agency
Many clients mix up two different amounts: the agency's work and the ad budget. You pay the budget to Meta directly and see all of it. You pay the agency only for setting up and running the campaign.
At Foster the targeting work costs 300 ₼, and the ad budget is not added to it. A proposal should list both amounts separately — that protects you from hidden costs.
4 rules so you don't overpay
When you receive a proposal, check that:
- The package is itemised: how many photos, reels, posters
- The contract is monthly, with no forced long lock-in
- There is a report with numbers at the end of each month
- There are no promises of results: a serious agency doesn't guarantee “x clients” and agrees up front on what is measured
Work it out yourself
In Foster's calculator you choose the number of photos, reels and posters, build your own package and see the total at once. The discount for a longer term is shown there too.
