Specifically what should it cost to hire somebody to run an Instagram account? I'm going to need one for my new undertaking within a few months and I just can't stand it so I have to hire someone and I'm wondering what I should expect to pay. Thanks

All I can say in general is unless you are a major brand forget an agency. They want all the content from you and then just post it. You basically do all the work and pay them ridiculous sums of money for hardly anything.

How much are we talking about though?
So for someone to "manage" your Instagram, do they do more than just the post it up? Like interaction, researching key hashtags, auto-follow/drop similar genre of user etc? Lots have contacted me on Instagram promising more followers which yields higher engagement overall.
Social Media marketing gets pricey from what I've seen so I'm curious what 'the going rate' is for someone competent vs. a big marketing firm.

I heard a quote from my friend who was looking for one and a company quoted them around $2000/month. They suggest content but you still need to provide it and post once a week I believe. I thought that was insane.
You need an employee that is passionate about the job/product.
Best social media manager you can get.
I'll do it for $1000/mo. SAVE HALF!!! CONTACT ME TODAY!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I get spammed by these people all the time be very careful. Most of them will just get a bot and you will gain followers but they are just fake accounts. Id hire someone that can prove that 1# they have multiple business's under them 2# can prove the followers are legit and actually gonna help your business. In my industry tons of people with 40k plus followers and they are broke.

There are lots of different packages for this, gain followers, post content, create content, paid traffic, seo... most of their rates are very negotiable... seen local firms drop their prices by 1/3rd in the span of their phone pitch
That's exactly what I want to avoid. I'm about a week away from being certified as a personal trainer and I'd rather have 1000 followers following relevant content and gain 10 or so clients from that than have 40k irrelevant bought followers jerking off to steroid physiques posing in front of a rented C63 and all the fakeness usually found on most "fitness" pages hahaThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

If you think you can start a fitness page without somehow engaging the latter crowd, I think you're about to be disappointed.
Clearly you can't tell the difference between a fitness page and an "I'm here to project that my life is awesome when in reality it sucks" pageThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
My target audience are people looking to lose weight, get fit and build a body they can keep, (like I did for myself) so I have absolutely no use for some jacked up steroid user and his douchey vacation/"my life is so awesome" pics a la Dan Bilzerian or Rich Piana, to me all of that is a fucking joke and I'll do plenty fine without any of it in my midst
But hey thanks for your input, tells me more than you know.

You should hire someone to post on here for you as well.

How much do you charge? You seem so original and on point.
Hey Vince, in my experience, the best social media managers are hired internally. I have tried multiple outsourced agencies and never been anything other than underwhelmed.
That's the thing bro, you are gonna be dealing with remarks that are subtle and then in your face. You gotta take comments in stride.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

Shit, there's only 49 users here, I doubt we'll even break 100
Lol that's exactly why I need to hire somebody! I can't deal with passive aggressive losers that hide behind screens!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Then how will you deal with them in person? Learning to take things at face value and not be affected by people who act/speak differently than you is going to be key to any kind of real success. You CAN deal with them if you decide to, you're the only one who can choose how to handle/respond to people or situations. You decide how you feel. It's all your choice.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Once you understand that and begin to learn how to practice it life will become exponentially easier by the day. Dealing with those people isn't the hard part, learning how to deal with yourself is where the difficulty lies.

I mean tbh you won't really sell in person training off social media to a random. What it's really good for is holding clients you already have accountable and having a real time business card. Most of your clients are gonna come from your natural market or from prospecting. My advice worry about getting as much experience as possible, educate yourself and the rest will take care of itself. I've been in the industry for 8 years and just started making bank the last 3.
800 followers but my business is easily over 100k
