Hiring an agency
Doing it yourself
Monthly cost
From free (5 credits, no card), then ₹999/mo for 100 credits or ₹1,999/mo for 250
Typically the ₹10K–50K/month range a marketing agency charges
No cash cost, but hours of your own time every week
Speed
Posts, Reels, and ads in minutes from your phone
Days of back-and-forth per campaign round
As fast as you can design and write it yourself
Consistency
Brand kit and calendar keep every post on-brand
Consistent while you pay; drifts if you pause
Slips first when the business gets busy
Effort from you
Upload a photo or offer, pick a format, publish
Briefs, reviews, and approval rounds
You plan, design, write, and post everything
