Social Media Marketing NJ FAQ's

How Much Do Social Media Videos Cost In New Jersey?
 +

Professional social media videos in New Jersey usually range from $1,500 to $15,000 per finished video, depending on the scope. A single-day shoot with a videographer falls at the lower end, while multi-location shoots with a larger crew, advanced editing, graphics, and licensed music run more.

Businesses often maximize their budget by creating multiple short edits from a single shoot, which can provide weeks of content. At Awakened Films, our New Jersey Social Media Marketing clients see the most value when we capture a large amount of material during an anchor filming session and then repurpose it into platform-ready social media videos.

How Much Does Monthly Social Media Management Cost?
 +

Monthly social media management in New Jersey typically ranges from $2,500 to $10,000 depending on the number of platforms, type of content creation, frequency of posting, and whether original video content is included. Most businesses choose packages that cover content planning, filming & editing scheduling, analytics, and optimization to keep channels active without adding strain to internal teams.

At Awakened Films, we offer our local New Jersey clients an affordable social media marketing plan starting at under $1,200 per month. This includes both strategy and video-driven content creation, giving small and mid-sized businesses a cost-effective way to stay consistent, professional, and competitive online.

How Much Does It Cost To Hire Someone For Social Media Marketing?
 +

Hiring a freelancer for basic social media management in NJ will cost between $45 and $150 per hour, but the level of strategy and quality can vary widely. Hiring an agency in New Jersey usually means a monthly retainer starting around $2,500, with full-service video-driven marketing campaigns reaching $5,000 or more. Agencies bring proven systems, creative teams, and measurable results, which often makes them more cost-effective than piecemeal freelancers.

Our standard social media plan costs $1,195 per month. That’s the same as paying a full-time employee less than $7 per hour (which is well below minimum wage in New Jersey). Instead of getting one untrained staffer, you get a full professional team creating strategy, filming, editing, and managing your content.

What Is Included In A Social Media Video Package VS A Management Package? +

A social media video package focuses on content creation that’s perfect for online engagement. It includes planning, filming, editing, captions, graphics, and platform-specific formatting. A management package goes a step further, adding additional options such as strategy sessions, scheduling, posting, community engagement, and analytics reporting.

Many New Jersey businesses don’t have the internal staff or bandwidth to handle both content creation and ongoing social media management. That’s why they turn to a production company like Awakened Films to deliver professional videos, consistent posting, and measurable growth.

How Long Should A Social Media Video Be For Best Engagement?
 +

Short videos perform best. Clips under 60 seconds are a must for social media engagement. But sub 20 second clips tend to generate the strongest engagement on TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Longer videos, two to three minutes, are effective for LinkedIn thought leadership or more complex brand stories. The right length depends on the platform, the goal of the campaign, and the audience’s attention span.

How Often Should My NJ Business Post On Social Media, And When?
 +

Most businesses see strong results by posting three to five times per week on their primary platforms. Timing matters too. Instagram and TikTok often perform best in late afternoon and evening hours, while LinkedIn posts see more engagement during weekday mornings.

The exact cadence is best refined through testing and analytics, since every industry and audience has unique habits. But the bottom line is to simply stay active on your social media channels.

How Do You Leverage Videos For Social Media Growth? +

Videos drive growth by grabbing attention quickly and encouraging shares. Short, vertical clips for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok perform especially well. Storytelling makes the biggest impact; showcase your brand values, highlight customer wins, or take viewers behind the scenes to see how you solve unique problems.

Longer corporate videos can be repurposed into bite-sized social clips with captions and strong hooks, ensuring content works even when the sound is off. The most important factor is consistency. Posting regularly builds momentum, strengthens brand visibility, and keeps your business top of mind.

Why Is Social Media Marketing Important? +

Social media marketing matters because it puts your brand where your audience is already spending hours every day. More than 250 million people in the U.S. are active on platforms like Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube — and they’re not just scrolling for entertainment. They’re discovering products, researching services, and deciding which businesses to trust.

For New Jersey companies, a strong social media presence is often the difference between blending in and standing out. Done right, it builds loyalty, drives leads, and keeps you ahead of local competitors.

 

Which Platforms Make Sense For My Industry In New Jersey?
 +

The best social media platforms for your business depend on your industry, your goals, the attributes of your ideal customer, and the type of content you can consistently produce. Retail and hospitality businesses thrive on Instagram and TikTok for visual storytelling. B2B companies often see more success on LinkedIn and YouTube. Local service providers can use Facebook for community visibility and paid targeting. The right mix is usually two to three platforms where your customers are most active.

How Do You Measure ROI From Social Media Video And Content? +

Return on investment means different things to different businesses. Typically, ROI is measured by tracking both engagement and business outcomes. Key metrics include watch-through rate, likes, comments, shares, and click-through rates. For lead-driven campaigns, conversion tracking is tied to form fills, sales inquiries, or purchases.

Your NJ social media agency should provide quarterly reports that show how video content directly contributes to your KPIs.

Do I Have To Sign A Long Contract, Or Can We Go Month-To-Month? +

Most agencies lock clients into twelve-month recurring contracts.

At Awakened Films, we believe in proving value without forcing long commitments. Our New Jersey social media plans include a straightforward six-month minimum agreement, which gives us enough time to build traction and deliver measurable results.

For organizations that prefer project-based engagements, we do offer custom options, though these fall outside our standard and plus pricing tiers.

Who Owns The Footage And Edited Content You Produce For Us? +

Ownership varies by agency, so it is smart to ask upfront.

At Awakened Films, our clients own the final edited videos and and can purchase any raw footage we produce for them. This means you can use the content across your website, social platforms, paid ads, and future campaigns without restriction.

Clear rights give peace of mind and maximize the value of your investment.

Why Are We The Best Social Media Marketing Agency In NJ?
 +

Our Madison, NJ studio includes a professional cyclorama wall, sets, and edit suites. We have nearly 200 five-star Google reviews and a track record working with brands like Orajel, Lion Brand, and the National Kidney Foundation.

Most importantly, we treat ourselves as an extension of your team, focused on creative visual storytelling™ that stands out.

How Many Pieces Of Content Do We Get Per Filming Day?
 +

A single filming day can generate anywhere from 10 to 50 social media video shorts depending on the script, locations, and goals.

We offer two of the best social media video marketing packages to New Jersey businesses:

– Standard: $1195/mo gets you (1) video and (1) static post per week

– Plus: $2695/mo gets you (3) videos and (1) static post per week

And we are happy to pull together a custom quote for those brands with unique needs.

Can You Film In Our NJ Location And Also Repurpose Existing Footage? +

Absolutely! We frequently film social media content, corporate films and commercials on-site at businesses across New Jersey. Our team is at home in every conceivable kind of organization, from offices and hospitals to restaurants and schools.

We can also repurpose existing footage, adding new edits, captions, graphics, and music to refresh it for today’s platforms. Combining new production with existing assets is a cost-efficient way to keep your social channels active and professional.
