How much does a social media agency in South Yarra charge?

Social media agency pricing in South Yarra 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 South Yarra and the broader Melbourne metro area at these published rates — ad spend is never marked up at any tier.

What should a South Yarra business look for in a social media agency?

A South Yarra 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.

social media agency South Yarra: content and paid for the Chapel Street corridor

South Yarra, Prahran, Windsor, Malvern. Stonnington LGA is Melbourne's fashion, hospitality, and luxury retail corridor — one of the country's highest-spending inner-city markets. Social media for businesses here needs to meet a content standard that matches the market. Here's the approach.

Stonnington LGA — South Yarra, Prahran, Windsor, Malvern, Malvern East — is one of Melbourne's highest household income and highest consumer spending areas. The Chapel Street and Toorak Road precincts attract national and international brands. For independent businesses competing in this market, social media quality is a competitive requirement: the customer who walks Chapel Street or Toorak Road has a high aesthetic bar and will notice the difference between premium and generic content.

the Stonnington market

The South Yarra and Prahran demographic is young, professional, and high-spending — the 25–40 cohort that spends significantly on hospitality, fashion, wellness, and lifestyle. The Malvern and Armadale demographic skews older and wealthier — the 40–60 professional and business-owner household that generates high transactions per visit.

The social media implication: production quality is non-negotiable. Canva graphics and iPhone photos underperform in a feed populated with premium brand content. An independent South Yarra restaurant competing for the same Friday-night reservation as the national hospitality groups on Chapel Street needs production quality that matches. Original production — shot on cinema equipment, delivered at the quality those brands use — is what makes independent businesses competitive in this market.

what we do for Stonnington businesses

production on location

South Yarra and Prahran are approximately 30 minutes from our Ringwood base. We shoot the South Yarra and Chapel Street precinct regularly — restaurants, boutiques, wellness studios, beauty businesses, and professional services. The travel is straightforward; no premium applies within the Melbourne metro boundary.

For inner-Melbourne hospitality, shoot timing follows service — dinner service Reels require evening shoots when the room is at its best. For retail and lifestyle businesses, shoot timing captures the product and space at the right time of day.

content that meets the Stonnington aesthetic

Inner-Melbourne audiences engage differently from outer-suburban audiences. The South Yarra Instagram user who sees a restaurant Reel has seen hundreds of high-quality food videos from Melbourne's best hospitality brands. The standard for stopping the scroll is higher, the expectations around production and presentation are higher, and the content that performs is more sophisticated than generic food photography.

Our production approach for inner-Melbourne clients: cinema camera equipment, two-camera documentary coverage, precise colour grading that matches the brand aesthetic. The content competes at the same level as the national brands.

geo-targeted paid campaigns for Stonnington

A South Yarra restaurant or boutique's target audience extends beyond the immediate postcode — the high-spending 25–40 demographic lives across Melbourne's inner suburbs (Richmond, Fitzroy, Albert Park, Hawthorn, Brighton) and travels for premium hospitality and retail experiences. Meta campaigns targeting this demographic across Melbourne's inner suburbs, filtered by income and lifestyle signals, reach the customer who will make the trip.

For luxury and high-end businesses in Malvern and Armadale, the paid targeting shifts: the 40–60, high homeownership, high disposable income demographic across Melbourne's inner-east and inner-south.

by vertical: South Yarra and Stonnington specifics

hospitality — Chapel Street and surrounds

The South Yarra and Prahran dining and bar scene is one of Melbourne's most competitive. The venue that builds a credible Instagram presence — consistent production quality, specific dish and cocktail content, atmosphere Reels that show the room at peak service — competes for the discretionary dining decision against well-resourced national competitors. The ones that don't invest in this are effectively invisible to the decision-making audience.

fashion, retail and lifestyle

Independent fashion and lifestyle retailers on Chapel Street and the surrounding precinct compete for a digitally sophisticated audience that researches brands on Instagram before visiting in person. Product content that shows the actual clothing in context — worn, styled, in the space — rather than flat-lay photography reaches this audience with content they engage with.

wellness, beauty and aesthetic medicine

South Yarra and Malvern have a high concentration of wellness, beauty, and aesthetic medicine businesses serving an affluent clientele. Content that introduces the practitioner, explains the treatment philosophy, and shows the space builds the pre-appointment trust that drives bookings for high-ticket treatments.
