How to use this calculator

What the result means

Sponsorship value depends on reach, engagement quality, brand fit, and expected results. A fee is easier to defend when it is tied to expected engagement and effective CPM.

Expected Engagements = Reach × Engagement Rate. Recommended Fee = Expected Engagements × $0.80 × Posts. Effective CPM = Brand Budget ÷ Reach × 1000.

Use the suggested fee as a negotiation estimate, not a guaranteed market price. Audience niche and buyer intent can justify higher or lower rates.

Example calculation

With 45,000 average reach, 5% engagement, 2 sponsored posts, and a $3,000 brand budget, expected engagements are 2,250 per post and recommended campaign fee is about $3,600.

Tips for better results

  • Price sponsorships from reach and engagement, not followers alone.
  • Offer minimum, recommended, and premium ranges.
  • Show expected engagement to support negotiation.
  • Improve audience quality before raising rates.
  • Use brand ROI to justify premium pricing.
