Commercial vehicle repair workshops · Social media
Show the truck on the lift, the part replaced and the invoice explained.
Social media marketing for a commercial vehicle workshop is the use of Facebook, YouTube and Instagram to show fleet owners and drivers the real work of the yard. GullySales works on what to post, how to caption it and how to turn a comment into an enquiry.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What social media means
Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.

Sales and marketing for commercial vehicle repair workshops, the overview.

For commercial vehicle repair workshops
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Drivers watch videos and share them”
A long-haul driver spends hours on a phone, and a video of a gearbox repair gets passed around the cabin. A workshop whose work is on that phone is remembered when the truck stops.
“Owners want proof of method, not a picture of a clean floor”
A fleet owner wants to see the fault found, the part removed and the work tested. Posts that show the sequence answer the suspicion of padding that every owner carries.
“Facebook and YouTube reach the older owner”
Transport owners are on Facebook and YouTube more than on Instagram. A plan that picks the platform where the buyer already sits wastes less effort.
“A customer's truck and number plate are private”
Posting a transporter's truck can reveal their routes and loads. Ask before posting, cover the number plate and keep drivers out of frame unless they agree.
What we do
What we deliver for commercial vehicle repair workshops.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A content plan from the yard
Post ideas drawn from real jobs: a clutch change, a brake overhaul, a fleet service day.
Result: Posts come from the work, not from stock.
A caption pattern with truck, fault and fix
A repeatable format that names the make, the fault, the part and the booking route.
Result: Searchers on the platform find posts by make.
A reply guide for comments and messages
Prepared replies to price and availability questions that move the person to a message or a call.
Result: Comments become estimate requests.
A consent note for customer vehicles
A short routine for asking before posting a customer's truck and covering plates.
Result: Posts respect the transporter's privacy.
A short video routine for the mechanics
A simple way for the team to film a repair with a phone, with a checklist for light and sound.
Result: The yard can produce its own videos.
How the result is measured

A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

- 5
Measure and optimise
We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
