Social Media Management Agreement
A social media management agreement is a services contract in which a provider plans, publishes, and monitors branded content on specified social platforms for a client. Use this when a marketing agency runs a client's LinkedIn, Instagram, or X presence on retainer. It defines approval workflow, ad-boost authorization, and credential ownership on exit.
