Questions
Social Media Marketing — common questions
- What does social media cost for a UK business?
- An indicative planning budget for social media is £400–£1,500 per month. The amount depends on scope, complexity and the level of delivery or management required. We confirm assumptions and exclusions before quoting, so this band is not a fixed CodeCue price or a guarantee. Advertising spend is separate.
- How long does social media take?
- Allow approximately 2–3 weeks to prepare the first content cycle for the initial social media scope described above. We agree a schedule after reviewing dependencies and approval steps. Access delays, changes to requirements or third-party checks can extend delivery, so milestones are confirmed during scoping rather than promised before we understand the work.
- What is included in your social media service?
- A defined social media engagement can include channel selection, a content calendar, agreed post production, scheduling and reporting. We document which activities belong in your scope and what is excluded. Acceptance criteria, review points and handover responsibilities are agreed before delivery, keeping the work focused on your business needs rather than an open-ended feature list.
- What do you need from us for social media?
- To scope social media, we need brand guidelines, approved photos, account access and an agreed process for content approval. Nominate someone who can answer questions and approve the work. We then confirm any missing information, access permissions and review dates, avoiding unnecessary collection of sensitive data and keeping decisions visible to everyone involved in the project.
- Do you provide ongoing social media support?
- Ongoing social media support can refine the content plan, review audience responses and manage agreed community-response work. We agree the support scope, response arrangements and review frequency separately, so you know what is covered after the initial engagement. New functionality or extra management work is estimated explicitly rather than assumed to be included in the original fee.
