The short answer

What do social media design services cover?

Social media design services produce the visual content brands post and advertise with: feed posts, carousels, stories, reel covers, YouTube thumbnails and ad creatives, all built on one set of templates so every post looks like the same brand. The work is delivered as finished files in each platform size and, where agreed, as editable templates.

It is for businesses that post regularly but have no designer, in-house teams that need a consistent template system, and agencies or marketers who run the channels themselves and want the creative handled. The usual problem is a feed where every post looks different because it was made by a different person in a different hurry.

We start with a social brand kit built on your identity, then design the month's posts or a campaign's creatives from it. Posting, scheduling, community management and paid campaigns are a separate service under social media marketing, so you can keep your own marketing team and still use us for design.

Social Media Design is one of our design and creative services, so your logo, print, packaging, website and social posts can come from one team and share one look.

  • Consistent look across platforms
  • Templates your team can edit
  • Sizes ready for every placement
  • Still and animated versions match

Jaipur

Social Media Design in Jaipur

For Jaipur restaurants, fashion labels, salons and coaching institutes, social media is often the first place customers see the brand. Our designers work from our studio in Jaipur, Rajasthan 302019, where Light Animation has been since 2010, and can meet you in person to set up a social brand kit and plan a month of posts, carousels, stories and reel covers at a time. Festive and wedding-season creatives can be prepared well ahead of the rush. We design social media content the same way for brands across India and in the USA.

How it runs

How we produce social media creatives

The kit is set up once; after that each batch follows the same short cycle.

  1. 01

    Channel review

    We look at your current profiles, the platforms you use, your brand guidelines and the kinds of posts you publish most.

  2. 02

    Social brand kit

    Templates for each format are designed and approved, with rules for type sizes, image treatment and color use.

  3. 03

    Content calendar

    You send the month's topics, offers, images and dates, or we work from a calendar your marketing team prepares.

  4. 04

    Batch design

    The full set of posts, stories, covers and ads for the period is designed from the kit.

  5. 05

    One review round

    You review the whole batch at once and send consolidated changes, which keeps the schedule predictable.

  6. 06

    Export and delivery

    Approved files are exported in every size you post, with clear file names so scheduling is quick.

Cost factors

What decides the cost of social media design?

Design is priced per kit, per batch or per month. These are the inputs that change it.

Number of creatives

How many posts, stories, carousels and covers you need each month or per campaign.

Formats and sizes

Each extra platform or ad placement adds exports and sometimes a separate layout.

Animated versions

Motion posts, countdowns and animated ads take longer than static designs.

Carousel length and detail

A ten-slide explainer carousel with icons and charts is more work than a single offer post.

Brand kit starting point

Building on existing guidelines is quicker than defining a social style from scratch.

Turnaround

Urgent same-week requests on top of a planned batch are quoted as add-ons.

The estimate is free and fixed per kit, batch or month after a short call. Posting and paid campaigns are separate services, and any ad spend is billed under our ads management service.

Stock templates are a reasonable start. This is what changes with a designed kit.

Projects and pricing

Fit, timelines, cost and formats

01

How is social media design priced?

A social brand kit is quoted after a short brief. Ongoing design is priced per batch or as a monthly pack, based on how many posts, stories, carousels and covers you need, the platforms and sizes, and how many animated versions are included. The proposal usually arrives within 2 hours during studio hours. Posting and channel management are quoted separately.
02

What comes in a social media brand kit?

Templates for feed posts, stories, carousels, reel covers and highlight icons, built on your logo, colors and typography, with a short note on how to use them. The kit is delivered as editable Canva or Figma files, so your team can swap text and images while keeping the layout. YouTube thumbnail and ad templates can be added on request.
03

How do monthly social media creative packs work?

You send the content calendar, offers and images for the coming month. We design the full set of posts, stories and covers from your kit, you review the whole batch in one round, and the approved files arrive in every platform size with clear names so scheduling is quick. Urgent additions during the month are handled as small add-ons.
04

Can you make animated social posts and reel covers?

Yes. We design animated stories, reel covers, countdowns and short ad animations in After Effects, delivered as MP4 or GIF at the right dimensions. Editing recorded footage into full reels or longer videos is a video production job, and we will tell you which kind of work fits once we see the brief.

05

Which sizes do you export social media designs in?

Each creative is exported for the placements you use: square and portrait feed sizes, vertical story and reel sizes, LinkedIn and Facebook post formats, YouTube thumbnails and the ad placement sizes Meta and Google ask for. Stills come as PNG or JPG and animations as MP4, plus the editable source when templates are part of the scope.
06

Will the social media templates follow our brand guidelines?

Yes. Send your guidelines and logo files and we build the templates within them. Many guidelines say little about social media, so we may propose a small extension covering post layouts, text sizes on images and photo treatment. That keeps the feed consistent without needing a rebrand, and you approve it before any posts are designed.
07

Does social media design include posting and running ads?

No. This service covers the creative only. Posting, scheduling, replying to comments and running paid campaigns are handled by our social media marketing and ads teams, who can work from the same files if you want both. Keeping them separate means your own marketing team or agency can use our designs without changing how you work.
08

What do you need from us to design social media posts?

Your logo and brand files, access to or screenshots of your current profiles, the platforms you post on, the topics and offers for the period, and any product or team photos you want used. If you have no photos, we can work with licensed stock images or illustrations, chosen to fit the look of the kit.

Still have a question?

Tell us what you need designed and we will answer with a recommended approach and next steps.
