The Hidden Cost of DIY Social Media: A Hedgehog's Guide to Time Management

Ever wondered how much your DIY social media efforts are really costing you? Grab a cup of coffee (or some hedgehog treats) while I break down the true price of managing your own social media presence.

Hello there, busy business owner! Junixy here, and today we're going to do some interesting math that might make your spikes tingle. You see, while DIY social media might seem free, it's actually eating up your most valuable resource - time!

The Real Cost of "Free" Social Media Management

Let's crunch some numbers (don't worry, I'll make it painless):

• Average time spent per post: 45 minutes
• Posts needed per week (minimum): 5
• Weekly time investment: 3.75 hours
• Monthly time commitment: 15 hours
• Your hourly rate as a business owner: £100 (being conservative here!)

Monthly DIY Cost: £1,500 worth of your time

And that's not counting:

• Time spent searching for perfect images
• Writer's block moments (we all have them!)
• Platform-specific formatting
• Engagement monitoring
• Analytics review

What Could You Do With 15 Extra Hours?

Think about it - that's nearly two full workdays you could spend:

• Meeting with potential clients
• Developing new products or services
• Growing your business strategy
• Actually running your business
• Or (gasp!) taking a well-deserved break

The "But I Can't Afford Help" Myth

Here's where it gets interesting:

• DIY Approach: £1,500 worth of your time
• Agency Solution: £500-1000/month with long contracts
• Junixy Solution: From £45 for 80 unique posts and images
