What does social media management cost in Ireland?

Quick answer: Social media management in Ireland is priced on volume and production, not on posting alone. The cost drivers are how many posts, how many platforms, whether photography or video is produced, whether replies and messages are handled, and whether paid promotion is managed.

Scheduling tools handle the posting, not the deciding. What you are actually paying for, what changes the figure, and where a tool is genuinely enough.

What drives the cost

  • Number of posts per month and number of platforms
  • Whether content is produced or supplied by you
  • Photography or video versus graphics and text
  • Whether comments and direct messages are handled
  • Whether paid promotion is planned and managed
  • Reporting depth and how often strategy is revisited

Can a scheduling tool replace a manager?

A scheduling tool publishes what you already decided to post. It does not decide what is worth saying, write it, shoot it or answer the person who replies. For a business with someone willing to plan and write, a tool plus a simple monthly plan is genuinely enough. For a business where nobody has the time, a tool just makes the silence tidier.

What we do and do not recommend

We recommend fewer, better posts tied to real work and real customers over daily filler. For most Irish SMEs a steady monthly rhythm with proof of actual jobs outperforms volume. We do not push email marketing or extra channels unless you ask or the business genuinely needs them.

How we quote it

No prices are published. We agree the number of posts, who produces the content and whether messages are handled, then give you a fixed monthly figure in writing. See [social content and scheduling](/services/social-content-scheduling).

How many posts a month do I actually need?

Consistency beats volume. A steady weekly post tied to real work usually outperforms daily filler for a small Irish business.

Do you shoot photos and video?

It can be included in scope. Many clients supply photos from real jobs, which tend to perform better than stock anyway.

Do you run paid ads too?

Paid promotion can be managed alongside the content. It is scoped separately so you can see what is content and what is spend.

Can I cancel?

Yes. Monthly work is agreed in writing with notice, not locked into a long contract.
