How Much Does Social Media Management Cost in Boston?

Social media management can mean scheduling supplied images or handling strategy, content production, video, community replies, reporting, and paid campaigns. Compare the work included before comparing a monthly total.

Published Boston-area examples

Pricing pages reviewed on October 26, 2026 showed Blue Seven Studio listing social media management from $1,500 per month and Launch Social Media listing packages at $1,700 and $2,100 per month. Those are providers' own prices, not a citywide average. Package details differ, so confirm current offers directly.

What changes the monthly fee

Scope changes with the number of platforms, original posts, short-form video, photography, copywriting, approvals, community management, and reporting. A one-time audit or setup may be separate. Paid-media budget should be shown separately from the management fee.

Match the package to a goal

Choose a measurable business outcome before choosing post volume. A restaurant may need current menu and booking information; a contractor may need project stories and inquiry handling. These are examples only; your plan should match your actual services and capacity.

Questions before signing

Ask for a sample calendar, monthly deliverables, response hours, reporting, and how weak results are handled. Confirm who owns the accounts and creative if the contract ends. Keep ad spend separate and avoid promises of fixed follower counts or viral reach.
