How much does a social media agency in Melbourne Cbd charge?

Social media agency pricing in Melbourne Cbd follows the Melbourne market: $500–$1,500/mo for scheduling and content management without production; $2,500/mo for an entry-level full-service retainer with a monthly shoot day, organic posting, and $500 bundled ad spend; $5,000/mo for a growth retainer with Meta and Google Ads management and $1,500 bundled ad spend. Konquer Media serves Melbourne Cbd and the broader Melbourne metro area at these published rates — ad spend is never marked up at any tier.

What should a Melbourne Cbd business look for in a social media agency?

A Melbourne Cbd business choosing a social media agency should check four things: whether the retainer includes a shoot day or only scheduling; whether paid advertising (Meta and Google) is included or charged separately; whether the ad accounts are owned by the client or the agency; and whether there's a follow-up system (CRM, missed-call text-back) or just the campaign. A production-led agency that shoots on-site, runs the campaigns, and wires up the CRM is a different product from a scheduling service — and the distinction determines whether the retainer generates revenue or just a busy feed.

The agency's current client roster includes hospitality venues, finance brokers, automotive dealers, and real estate agents across Melbourne's inner suburbs, eastern corridor, and growth suburbs. Travel is quoted separately for locations outside 50km of the Melbourne CBD. Contact info@konquermediaagency.com or call 0412 836 512 for a brief.

social media agency Melbourne CBD: content and paid for the city's hospitality, professional services and retail market

The Melbourne CBD is Australia's most concentrated professional services and hospitality market — 500,000 people working within or transiting the city grid daily, with significant lunch and after-work spending, combined with Melbourne's visitor economy from domestic and international tourism. Social media for CBD businesses operates in Australia's most competitive urban marketing environment.

The Melbourne CBD business faces a specific social media challenge: a physically concentrated market where the competition is high and the audience is sophisticated, but where the potential reach extends to the entire Melbourne metropolitan area and beyond. The CBD restaurant that builds a strong Instagram presence is not just competing for the nearby office worker's lunch — it's reaching the Melbourne diner from Doncaster or Sandringham who makes the trip to the city specifically for dinner.

the CBD audience and its layers

The Melbourne CBD's audience is multi-layered: the 300,000+ office workers who commute in daily and drive the lunch, coffee, and after-work spending; the domestic visitor from Melbourne's suburbs who comes to the city for shopping, dining, and events; and the international visitor who is discovering Melbourne and whose spending patterns are significantly higher than the resident.

The post-2020 return to office has created a new dynamic: CBD hospitality now competes more directly with suburban alternatives for the hybrid worker who is in the city 3 days a week and makes deliberate choices about where to spend their in-office lunch and after-work time.

what we do for CBD businesses

CBD production

The Melbourne CBD's laneways, arcades, and architectural diversity create one of Australia's strongest urban production environments. The laneways that are unique to Melbourne — the café culture in Degraves and Centre Place, the street art in Hosier Lane, the heritage arcade shopfronts — provide an immediately recognisable Melbourne context that resonates with both local and visitor audiences.

city-worker targeting

Meta's workplace and location targeting allows CBD campaigns to specifically reach the office-worker demographic: employed adults who are physically present in the CBD on weekdays, with income levels that support premium hospitality and professional services spending. This is a highly efficient targeting layer for CBD lunch, coffee, and weekday hospitality businesses.

visitor targeting

For CBD hospitality and retail that serves the visitor economy: campaigns targeting Melbourne metro residents aged 25–55 with travel and dining interest reach the suburban Melbourne audience that makes city trips. Campaigns targeting interstate visitors in Melbourne can be run with geo-fencing to recently arrived visitors staying in CBD hotels.

by vertical: CBD specifics

laneway hospitality

Melbourne's laneway café and restaurant scene is globally recognised. Content that shows the laneway environment — the morning coffee crowd, the lunch service, the specific quality that distinguishes this venue from the 400 alternatives within walking distance — is the content that builds the CBD regulars who choose deliberately rather than by proximity.

professional services in the city

The CBD's concentration of legal, financial, accounting, and consulting firms creates a strong B2B professional services market. LinkedIn content targeting the CBD professional is among the most efficient B2B social media advertising available — the city-based lawyer or accountant who sees thought leadership content from a professional services firm on LinkedIn is in the precise context where they're open to professional relationships.
