The short version: Votel includes social posting and a content calendar, and its AI Assistant can draft the posts. Package that as a monthly service for local businesses, somewhere between $99 and $399 a month depending on volume, and every client you sign adds to a recurring number instead of a one-off invoice.
A handful of old posts. A customer checking them out wonders if they're still open.
Fresh tips, recent jobs and a monthly offer. The business looks busy and trustworthy.
What the owner is buying
Not "social media." The feeling of a business that looks alive online without them touching it.
Ask any plumber, dentist or gym owner if they should be more active on social media and they'll say yes. Ask when they last posted and you'll get a shrug. It isn't that they don't care. Thinking up content, writing it, finding an image and remembering to hit publish is a job, and it's never the most urgent job of the day.
"You'll show up three times a week with tips and recent jobs, and you won't have to write a thing. You approve the month, we handle the rest."
What Votel gives you
Two parts of Votel do most of the work: one drafts, one publishes.
Describe the business, the offer and the tone, and it drafts the posts. Votel's homepage describes it building a 30-day social plan across your channels, images and videos included, that you review before anything is published.
Connect the client's accounts, schedule the month, and handle comments and replies from the same place where the platform allows it.

A prompt to start every client's month
Create a 30-day social media plan for [Business name], a [type of business] in [city]. Audience: [who they serve]. Goal: stay visible and bring in more [calls / bookings / visits]. Post 3 times a week on [platforms]. Mix: practical tips, recent jobs or results, behind the scenes, one offer this month, and one local community post. Tone: [friendly / professional], plain language, no jargon. For each post, give the date, platform, caption, 3 to 5 hashtags and an image idea. Don't invent prices, promotions or reviews. Flag anything I need to confirm with the owner.

For clients who want you to own the whole channel.
You have two or three packages, a price for each, and you can explain the difference in one sentence.
Run the numbers
What happens when you stop selling one-off projects. Here's just the $149 package:
Move a few of those clients up to $249 or $399 and the number climbs fast. Try your own mix:
"Left after the plan" is before Votel usage (AI credits and the like, billed separately), your own time, and any help you hire. It's a planning number, not a promise. But notice how small the software line is next to the revenue line.
Stack more services
The business that pays you for social is the same one that needs a website, a phone answered and more reviews.
Instead of always hunting for the next new customer, you grow by selling the next useful thing to customers who already trust you. For the prospecting side, Your Website Report finds local businesses and shows them what they're missing.
Launch this week
Five steps from "I could sell this" to your first paying client.
1. Pick one kind of business
Posts for a dentist and posts for a roofer are different jobs. Choosing a niche makes your prompts, your examples and your pitch sharper. The Votel for businesses pages and the niche finder can help you choose.
2. Build a sample month
Use the AI Assistant and the prompt above to draft a month of posts for a real business in that niche (your own works). That sample is your portfolio.
3. Offer it to people you already know
Existing clients, friends who run businesses, your local chamber. The first three clients rarely come from cold outreach.
4. Set up an approval step
Share the month's plan, get a thumbs up, then schedule. AI drafts fast, but the client should see what goes out under their name.
5. Send a short monthly recap
What went out, what got engagement, what's planned next. That one email is what keeps clients renewing.
Get these right
Four habits that keep clients happy and keep you out of trouble.
Keep each client in their own sub-account and connect the profiles they control. If they leave, they keep their pages.
Sell consistency and a professional presence. Results vary, and overpromising is how you lose good clients.
Comment and reply handling isn't the same everywhere. Only sell it where you've confirmed it works.
The $97 Pro plan covers five sub-accounts. Past that you'll want the $297 Unlimited Agency Pro plan, which the calculator already assumes.
The bigger idea
Don't look at Votel as just software. Go through every feature and ask one question: "How could I turn this into a result a business would pay me for every month?" Social media is one answer. The rest of this series works through the others.
Common questions
Do I need to be a designer or copywriter to sell social media management with Votel?
No. Votel's AI Assistant drafts posts and plans for you. Your job is to give it good direction about the business, review what it produces, and get the client's approval before anything goes live.
Which social platforms can Votel post to?
The fourteen listed above, from Instagram and Facebook to Google Business and WordPress. Posting, comment and reply features vary by platform, so check what each connection supports before you promise it to a client.
How much should I charge for social media management?
The example packages on this page run from $99 to $399 a month, based on post volume, the number of platforms, and how much engagement work is included. Treat them as a starting point and price for your market.
Which Votel plan do I need to offer this service?
Each client should live in their own sub-account. Votel's $97 Pro plan includes five, which is enough for your first few clients. Past five, the $297 Unlimited Agency Pro plan adds unlimited sub-accounts and white labelling, and the white-label setup checklist walks through the branding side. Usage items such as AI credits are billed separately.
