Paying guest accommodations · Social media

Show the room, the food and the neighbourhood before a stranger has to ask.

Social media marketing for a PG means posting real room tours, mess menus and neighbourhood walks where new arrivals actually browse before choosing, rather than stock interior photos. GullySales plans this content around admission and hiring seasons and answers enquiries where they land, on Instagram and WhatsApp.

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 paying guest accommodations

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

  • “Room tours over staged photography”

    A short video walking through an actual room, the shared bathroom and the common area answers more questions than a wide-angle staged photo ever could.

  • “The weekly mess menu posted like clockwork”

    Food is one of the first questions a new tenant asks, and a property that posts its actual weekly menu removes the doubt before the call even happens.

  • “Comments and DMs answered same day”

    A prospective tenant commenting to ask about a vacancy who gets no reply for two days has usually already booked elsewhere by the time someone responds.

What we do

What we deliver for paying guest accommodations.

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

  1. Real room tour video series

    Short videos walking through an actual room, shared bathroom and common area, replacing staged wide-angle photos.

    Result: A viewer gets honest answers a staged photo cannot give.

  2. A weekly mess menu post

    The actual weekly food menu posted on a fixed schedule.

    Result: A prospective tenant's first question about food is answered before they ask.

  3. Same-day comment and DM reply routine

    A routine so a vacancy question in the comments or DMs gets a same-day reply.

    Result: A prospective tenant hears back before booking elsewhere.

  4. Admission and hiring season content push

    A content schedule concentrated around the seasons when new arrivals are actively searching.

    Result: Posts reach the audience exactly when they are deciding.

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.

Platform for this buyer

Where students and new joiners look for a room, and what a PG should post.

Instagram reels of the room and the street
Walk from the gate to the room, showing the cot, cupboard, bathroom and the spot where Wi-Fi works, then the walk to the college or office. Close with one action: message for a visit.
WhatsApp Status and college groups
Post a vacant bed with the room type and the date it is free, and remove the post once it fills. Ask a current resident to share it with their batch.
Google Business Profile photographs
Add photographs of the room, the mess and the common area, and a post summarising the house rules. Parents searching for a PG near a college look at the photographs before the rent.
YouTube for parents
Show the warden or owner explaining visitor rules, gate time, the mess and security arrangements. A parent in another city watches this before agreeing to pay an advance.
What not to post
Do not show a resident's face, name or room without consent, and do not post a girls' PG's bed layout or camera positions. Safety details belong in a call with the parent.

Who it is for

This is written for these paying guest accommodations.

  • Boys' and girls' PG accommodations near colleges
  • Co-living spaces for working professionals
  • PGs near tech parks and business hubs
  • PGs near hospitals for patients and attendants
  • Furnished single and shared-room PGs
  • Multi-property PG chains

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the social media work runs

  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.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Which platform works best for PGs?
Instagram for room tours and reels that reach students, and Google Business Profile posts for the search-driven enquiries that convert faster.
Do we need a big following?
No. A small, locally relevant following that sees your posts when searching the area matters more than broad reach.
Can we use a resident's video as a testimonial?
Yes, with written consent from the resident, or the parent if the resident is a minor. Ask after they have settled in, not as they leave over a dispute. Keep room numbers and routines out of frame, and take it down if they ask later.
Who should reply to messages when the owner is busy?
Name one person, such as a warden or manager, and give them the room availability sheet so they can answer without asking you. A student who gets no answer moves to the next listing. Agree what they may promise: price, deposit and move-in date stay the owner's call.
How is marketing for a PG different from a hotel?
A PG tenant is choosing a home for months near a specific college or office, not a night's stay. Location relative to that address and honest room photos matter more than star ratings or amenities.
Do we need to advertise or just list on platforms?
Listing platforms and local search usually bring enough enquiries if the reply is fast and the reviews are good. Ads help before admission season when demand near a college spikes.
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.
