Questions
How much does a social media agency cost?
Most small businesses pay an agency about $500 to $5,000 a month, and more for big brands or many channels, according to Expert Market's 2025 pricing guide. Ask two or three agencies for quotes to compare.
Is Bold Beluga as good as an agency?
Bold Beluga does the everyday part an agency does: it learns your business, writes and designs the posts and publishes them on Instagram and Facebook, and can run your ads. It doesn't come to your shop for a photo shoot or join strategy calls. Try 3 posts free and judge for yourself.
