Mohammed Rizvi, MuscatSocial media management in Oman costs OMR 20 per platform per month in 2026, plus the posts and reels you actually want: OMR 2 to 8 per post and OMR 7 to 16 per reel. A typical Instagram plan of twelve custom-designed posts a month comes to OMR 74. Most agency packages in Oman are quoted at OMR 200 to 1,000 a month, usually without saying how many posts are inside. This guide lists every unit price and three worked plans so you can check any quote against them.
The short answer, in OMR
These are the prices I publish on the price list, excluding 5% VAT. The cost estimator lets you choose platforms, posts and reels and shows the exact monthly figure.
| Item | Price (OMR) | Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Platform management: scheduling, publishing, monitoring, monthly report | 20 | per platform, per month |
| AI-generated poster | 2 | per post |
| Custom-designed post | 4.5 | per post |
| Premium art-directed post | 8 | per post |
| Basic reel (your footage, captions, trending audio) | 7 | per reel |
| Advanced edited reel (scripted, motion graphics, subtitles) | 16 | per reel |
| Community management (comments and DMs, five days a week) | 25 | per month |
| Monthly strategy and reporting call | 40 | per month |
| Creator and UGC sourcing | 55 | per month |
If you want the ideas, hooks and captions written for you rather than sending your own topics, that adds 25% of the content cost.
Three worked plans
Starter: OMR 74 a month. One platform (20) and twelve custom-designed posts (54). Three posts a week on Instagram, which is enough to look current when a customer checks you out.
Standard: OMR 127 a month. One platform (20), twelve designed posts (54), four basic reels (28) and community management (25). This is what most restaurants, salons, clinics and shops in Muscat need.
Two platforms with video: OMR 215 a month. Instagram and TikTok (40), twelve designed posts (54), eight basic reels (56), community management (25) and a monthly strategy call (40). The same content is adapted for both platforms.
For comparison, published guides for Oman say most agencies charge OMR 200 to 1,000 a month for social media management, depending on the number of platforms, how often they post and how much video is included.
Why per post instead of a package
A package hides the unit price. "Gold package, OMR 350" could be twelve posts or thirty, hand-designed or templates. When each post and reel has a price:
- you can see what you are paying for and compare it with any other quote;
- you can start small and add reels or a second platform when the first one is working;
- you can mix quality, using cheap AI posters for volume and designed posts for the ones that carry your reputation.
What changes the price
- Number of platforms. Each one adds OMR 20 a month. Instagram first for most consumer businesses, then TikTok or Snapchat, and LinkedIn for B2B.
- Video. Reels cost more than posts and reach further. Four basic reels a month is a sensible start.
- Who writes the ideas. Sending your own topics keeps the cost down; having the plan written for you adds 25% of the content cost.
- Replies. If nobody on your team will answer comments and DMs the same day, add community management. Unanswered messages waste everything else.
- Arabic. Captions in Arabic and English are standard, not an extra.
What is not included
Ads. Organic posting and paid advertising are different jobs. Meta or TikTok ads management starts at OMR 120 a month per channel, and the media spend goes to the platform at cost. See digital marketing in Oman.
Photo and video shoots. Posts are designed from the material you have. A half-day product or location shoot is OMR 130 and usually covers a month or two of content.
Red flags in a social media quote
- No number of posts or reels stated.
- Followers promised. Followers can be bought; enquiries cannot.
- The agency owns the accounts. You should add them as a partner through Meta Business Suite or TikTok Business Center and be able to remove them.
- A report with reach and impressions but no enquiries.
