Tourist guide services · Social media

Show the pillar, the story and your pace before the traveller books.

Social media marketing for a tourist guide is a record of real tours that lets a traveller judge your style before booking. GullySales plans the posts, the short videos and the replies around the sites and the guests you serve.

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 tourist guide services

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “A traveller is choosing a person, not a monument”

    The monument is the same whoever stands beside it. A short clip of you explaining one carved pillar, at the pace you walk, tells a family whether the day will suit grandparents or restless children.

  • “Photographs of the group raise a privacy question”

    Guests are happy to be photographed, but children and some visitors are not. A short permission note, asked at the start of the tour, protects the guest and lets you post the best pictures without worry.

  • “The audience is spread across languages and places”

    Domestic visitors follow different accounts from foreign ones. A post in the language you specialise in, tagged with the site, reaches that traveller where they plan, while a general post for everyone reaches few.

  • “Posting without a plan wastes the tour season”

    A guide on tour all day has no time to post. Gathering clips during the tour and scheduling a few posts around the site calendar keeps the account useful with little effort on the day.

What we do

What we deliver for tourist guide services.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A plan for the clips you already take

    A short list of shots to capture on tour, such as the gate, a stop, a story and a guest reaction, with permission.

    Result: You finish a tour with material ready to use.

  2. A set of post formats for guides

    Formats such as a stop explained, a question answered, a festival walk and a guest day, so you do not start from a blank page.

    Result: Posts follow a pattern you can repeat.

  3. A permission note for guests

    A short message or card asking guests whether you may post pictures from the tour, with a clear option to say no.

    Result: You post only pictures the guest has agreed to.

  4. Captions with the details a traveller needs

    Each caption names the site, the language, the meeting point and how to book on WhatsApp.

    Result: A viewer who likes a post can book without searching for you.

  5. Replies to comments and messages

    A short set of replies for common questions about fees, timing and languages, written in your voice.

    Result: Comments and direct messages get an answer in your own style.

How the result is measured

  • Posts published
  • Engagement rate
  • Enquiries from social profiles

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

How the social media work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Understand your audience and platforms

    We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.

  2. 2

    Audit current presence

    We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.

  3. 3

    Build the content calendar

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

  4. 4

    Implement and post

    Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.

  5. 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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which platform should a guide use?
Instagram suits short clips from tours, and Facebook still reaches older travellers and groups. Start with the one your travellers use, and check the platform's current rules before running paid posts.
Do we need to pay for ads?
Not to begin. A steady record of real tours and a profile that books are the base. Paid promotion can follow once you know which posts bring enquiries.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
