I’m about to sign my first SMM client but I have no idea if $300/mo is fair or if I'm getting robbed.

I’ve been building my portfolio for months and finally landed a solid lead a local boutique that wants me to handle their Instagram and Facebook.

They asked for my monthly rate, and I panicked and said $300 a month. They agreed immediately. Like, too fast. Now I’m second-guessing everything. They want 3 posts a week, stories, and some community management.

When I do the math, between content creation, caption writing, and engagement, I feel like I might be making about $5 an hour. But I’m also scared that if I ask for $800, they’ll just walk away and find someone on Fiverr.
