Industrial suppliers and distributors · Social media
Your audience is forty maintenance managers inside a fifty mile drive.
Social media for a distributor is a small, named audience: the maintenance and reliability people at plants your trucks already reach. GullySales builds the posting around work from your own shop floor, sets your outside reps up properly, and counts the enquiries it produced rather than the followers.
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 industrial suppliers and distributors, the overview.
For industrial suppliers and distributors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Reach is the wrong measure when the market is fifty plants”
Ten of the right people seeing a hose crimp is a better month than four thousand views from three states away.
“A rep's own profile outperforms the company page”
Plant people connect with the person who visits them, while the company account posts to an audience of manufacturers' reps.
“The only content that travels here is the bench”
A gearbox stripped down, a belt drive corrected, a sixty-foot hose made up while a truck waited. Nobody scrolls past that.
What we do
What we deliver for industrial suppliers and distributors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Footage captured off the fabrication bench and the yard
A routine for filming the hose, belt and repair work already happening, with a note of what failed and what went back on.
Result: Posting stops waiting for somebody to have an idea.
Outside reps set up on LinkedIn properly
Profiles, a connection routine and a weekly post each rep can send in two minutes from a plant car park, with what not to post written down.
Result: Your reps reach people the company page never will.
A named list of local plants and their maintenance leads
The plants inside your delivery radius, the maintenance and reliability contacts at each, and an approach that does not read as a pitch.
Result: You are a known name before the first call.
Manufacturer material reworked for your territory
Brand campaign assets from the lines you carry rewritten around plants near you, using the co-operative funds most branches leave unclaimed.
Result: Supplier money pays for content about your branch.
A short answer series taken from the counter
The questions your will-call desk fields all week, answered in a minute each, posted where local maintenance people already sit.
Result: Your branch becomes the one people ask.
Enquiries traced back rather than followers counted
A monthly note of which enquiries, quotes and orders came through a profile or a post, compared with the position before any of it started.
Result: You can stop if it is not earning.
How the result is measured
- Posts published
- Engagement rate
- Enquiries from social profiles
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.
Who it is for
This is written for these industrial suppliers and distributors.
- MRO and general industrial supply houses
- Bearing, power transmission and motion distributors
- Hydraulic and pneumatic distributors with a fabrication shop

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 monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
45 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · Within a few working days
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope and fee come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
06 · Month 3 to 6
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. No twelve-month lock.
How the work runs for industrial suppliers and distributors
- 1
Read the sales history
In the free audit we look at where enquiries come from and what your ERP already shows: which accounts slowed, which lines went quiet, which quotes never closed.
- 2
Fix the enquiry path
Counter, web and email enquiries logged in one place, a follow-up date on every quote, and agreed overlap hours so nothing waits until the next morning.
- 3
Make the catalogue findable
Real data on the lines that matter, brand and application pages, and branch pages built for a search made in a hurry.
- 4
Work the accounts nobody calls
The lost-line report and the neglected tail of the territory handled as inside sales, with a written record of every conversation.
- 5
Report by line, not by lump
A monthly report showing enquiries, quotes, orders and recovered categories against the baseline recorded before anything changed.
Proof
What happened when owners fixed this.
Real clients, the work we did, and the result as it was recorded. Where no number was recorded, none is claimed.
SB Engineering
- Situation
- Buyers searching for laser cutting and sheet metal work in Bengaluru were finding other suppliers first, because the company did not rank for the terms its own customers type.
- What we did
- The site redesigned for mobile
- Search work on the buyer's terms
- Content that shows the work
- Social channels managed
- Result
- Website traffic rose 60% within six months, against a target of 50%.
- High-quality leads rose 45%, with a rise in conversion rates alongside them.
- Fifteen target keywords moved up the rankings, five of them into the top three positions.
HOPO Hardware
- Situation
- There was no website or online platform of any kind, so nothing showed the products, their features or their technical specifications. A dealer who wanted a specification had to ask for it every time.
- What we did
- Website and product catalogue
- Logo and colour palette
- Printed stationery
- Social accounts opened
- Result
- No numbers were recorded for this engagement. The work is described in full in the case study.

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 monthly 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 lock-in, no guarantees we cannot keep
Three to six months at a time. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
Hours that fit your day, agreed up front
Which hours we overlap with yours is settled before any work starts, so you know when a reply is coming and when it is not.
