Denting and painting shops · Social media
Let finished panels do the talking on Instagram and Facebook.
Social media marketing for a denting and painting shop is the use of Instagram, Facebook and YouTube to show repairs, panels and the paint booth to car owners and the people who recommend garages. GullySales works on what to show, how to ask owners for permission and how to answer messages.
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.

For denting and painting shops
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A repair is a story with a before and an after”
Social media suits bodyshops because the result is visible: a crushed door, then a straight one in the right shade. A post that holds both in the same light shows the work without a claim attached.
“Number plates and owners are not content”
A car on a feed carries a plate, a locality and sometimes a face. Without the owner's consent, and with the plate covered, a post can embarrass a customer. A consent line at delivery settles the question once.
“The audience is local and mixed”
Followers include car owners, insurance agents, tow operators and cab operators. A page that shows the booth, the process and the finish speaks to each of them, while a page full of festival greetings speaks to nobody.
“Messages arrive on the platform, not on the phone”
Owners send a photo of the damage on Instagram or Facebook and wait. A page with no one answering loses the enquiry to a shop that replies, so the inbox needs an owner, not just a feed.
What we do
What we deliver for denting and painting shops.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A content frame for repairs
A simple pattern: damaged panel, process step, finished panel, in the same lighting.
Result: Each repair post follows one pattern the team can repeat.
A consent and number plate routine
A consent line on the delivery note and a step that covers the plate before posting.
Result: No post goes up without the owner's permission.
Short videos of the process
The dent pulled, the primer, the booth, the colour check, shot on a phone.
Result: Process clips that explain the work to an owner.
An inbox handling guide
Who replies to messages, what to ask for first and when to move to a call.
Result: Messages are answered by a named person.
A page set-up for insurers and fleets
Bio, highlights and links that show the booth, the cashless insurers and the contact.
Result: A surveyor or a fleet manager finds the facts on the profile.
How the result is measured

- Engagement rate

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.
