For automobile spare parts distributors

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

  • “The follower is a mechanic, not a car owner”

    A page that posts car care tips for owners reaches the wrong person. Your audience is the garage owner, the counter staff and the fleet workshop head, who want new stock, brand arrivals and part availability.

  • “A post of a stock photo says nothing about you”

    A picture of a shelf of boxes, a delivery van leaving or a new brand carton on the counter shows you hold the parts. A downloaded image of an engine shows only that you have a feed.

  • “The comment is a question about price or stock”

    A mechanic who comments on a brake pad post wants the price and whether it fits. If the reply takes a day, the order goes elsewhere. The reply needs a named person and a route to the order line.

  • “Groups carry the conversation, pages carry the proof”

    Mechanics talk in WhatsApp and Facebook groups for a trade or locality. The page holds your catalogue and arrivals, and you take part in groups only where the rules allow business posts.

What we do

What we deliver for automobile spare parts distributors.

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

  1. A page set-up for the trade

    Profile, cover, description and pinned post that say who you supply, which brands you carry and how to place an order.

    Result: A visitor sees within a glance that this is a trade supplier.

  2. A post plan from your stock

    Posts built from new arrivals, brand cartons, slow-moving offers and delivery runs, using your own photos.

    Result: Each post comes from something on your shelf, not a template.

  3. A comment-to-order route

    A short script and a named person for stock and price questions, moving the buyer to the order line.

    Result: Comments are answered by a person with the stock list in hand.

  4. Short video of the counter and van

    Simple clips of a new arrival, a packed order or a part being matched to a vehicle.

    Result: The clips show real stock and real handling.

  5. A group posting note

    A list of trade groups and the rule for each on business posts, so posting never breaks a group's norms.

    Result: You know which groups allow trade posts and which do not.

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.

Posts and pieces to plan

Plan posts a mechanic will stop for.

New stock arrived on the shelf
A photo of the carton with the part name and the vehicle fit, posted when the stock is on hand.
Part comparison on the counter
A picture of two parts side by side with the fit difference noted, which a head mechanic values.
Van loaded for the route
A short clip of the van leaving for the day's counters, showing coverage without naming any garage.
Question from the counter, answered
A post answering a part question heard at the counter, with the part name and the fit, in plain trade words.
Scheme on a brand line
A post stating a brand scheme with its terms as the brand set them, shown only to trade buyers.

Who it is for

This is written for these automobile spare parts distributors.

  • Two-wheeler spare parts distributors serving counters and small garages
  • Car and light vehicle spare parts distributors
  • Commercial vehicle parts distributors for truck and bus operators
  • Tyre, tube and battery distributors
  • Lubricant, filter and consumables distributors
  • Multi-brand aftermarket distributors with a wide part list
  • Authorised distributors for a single maker's genuine parts
  • Tractor and agricultural vehicle parts distributors

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Nobody can reply to comments about price or stock, so every post would leave a mechanic waiting.
  • Your customers are a small fixed set of counters you visit on a fixed route, so a public page would reach few new buyers.

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

    Confirm audience, platforms and access

    We note which platforms your buyers use and check that the pages sit under your own business accounts, with you as owner and us as added roles.

  2. 2

    Review the current presence

    We read the existing pages, the posts that drew replies and the gaps in posting.

  3. 3

    Build the calendar

    Themes, formats and dates are set out for your approval, with space for offers and news.

  4. 4

    Create, approve and publish

    Posts are made, approved by you and scheduled. Replies to the public are handled in your voice.

  5. 5

    Record enquiries and adjust

    Enquiries are logged against the post or platform where they began, and the mix changes to follow what brings them.

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.

Tell us what you need
Which platform should a parts distributor use?
Use the one your garages and counters already use. In a typical territory that is WhatsApp for orders and Facebook or Instagram for showing stock. Ask five regular customers before choosing.
Do we need to run ads?
Not at first. Posting and replying build a record of what interests the trade. Ads can follow if there is a clear offer, such as a new brand, and a person ready to answer the response.
Can we post prices?
Trade prices differ by counter and credit terms, so posting one price can cause arguments. Post that rates are available on request, and give them on the order line to the registered buyer.
Why does a stock photo from the brand not work?
Because it says nothing about you. A mechanic wants to see parts on your shelf and in your van. A photo from your own godown shows the stock is real and near, which the brand's catalogue image cannot show for any distributor.
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.
