Cold-chain logistics providers · Social media

Show the vehicle, the logger and the loading bay, because shippers judge process by sight.

Social media marketing for a cold-chain provider is a record of how your trips are run, shown to the shippers and trade contacts who follow it. GullySales plans what to post from the yard, the road and the delivery, and sets the rules for what stays private.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

Cold chain companies: show a real physical business scene illustrating Chamber readings on one screen. Show the current temperature, and humidity where it is measured, for every chamber, freezer and anteroom fitted with a sensor, with the time each one last reported.

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 cold-chain logistics providers

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

  • “Logistics heads follow on LinkedIn, drivers and small shippers on WhatsApp and Instagram”

    A pharma distributor's supply chain manager reads LinkedIn. A fruit packer or sweet maker is more likely to see a video forwarded on a chat. The same loading clip needs a different caption for each, and not every platform is worth the effort.

  • “A photo of a full truck shows nothing about temperature”

    A reefer on the road looks the same as a dry van. The posts that tell a buyer something show the pre-cooling in progress, the logger being placed, the display reading and the door being sealed.

  • “Cargo and shipper names are not yours to post”

    A carton with a brand on it or a plant gate in the background identifies a client. Without the shipper's agreement the post can damage the relationship it is meant to win, so check before anything goes up.

  • “A breakdown handled well is better content than a clean month”

    A cooling unit fault, the backup vehicle arriving and the cargo transferred is the story a quality head wants to read. Written without blame and without client detail, it shows the plan working.

What we do

What we deliver for cold-chain logistics providers.

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

  1. A post plan built on trip stages

    Pre-cool, load, seal, monitor, hand over, each a repeatable post type with a short caption format.

    Result: A set of post types your yard staff can photograph.

  2. A rule sheet for what may be shown

    Which photos need a shipper's agreement, what to crop out, and who approves a post before it goes live.

    Result: A single page every driver and supervisor can follow.

  3. LinkedIn profile for the company

    Company page, headline and featured posts written for supply chain and quality managers.

    Result: A page that reads as a provider with a process.

  4. A short video routine for the yard

    A simple way to record a loading check on a phone, with the angle and the caption format fixed.

    Result: Usable clips from ordinary loading, without a studio.

  5. Platform check before each campaign

    A note of what each platform currently allows for business promotion, to be checked against its current rules.

    Result: Posts and adverts that match the platform's present rules.

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

What a reefer operator can show that a logistics or quality head will trust.

Pre-cooling before loading
A short clip of the unit running with the display visible and the empty body, posted without the shipper's name.
A logger read at delivery
A photo of the printed or digital record handed over, with the cargo and shipper details blurred.
The yard at night
A video of vehicles being checked before a night departure, with a plain caption naming the checks made.
A breakdown handled
Describe a fault, the backup vehicle sent and the handover, once the shipper has agreed to the post.
Insulated box packing
A clip for small shippers showing how a box is packed, with the coolant used and the cargo it suits.

Who it is for

This is written for these cold-chain logistics providers.

  • Reefer truck operators for dairy, ice cream and frozen foods
  • Temperature-controlled transport for pharma and healthcare distributors
  • Seafood and meat transport from ports and processing units
  • Fruit, vegetable and flower carriers on long routes
  • Multi-temperature vehicle and shared reefer load operators
  • Insulated box and last-mile cold delivery services
  • Cold chain providers serving retail and QSR chains
  • Reefer container haulage near ports and inland depots

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your drivers are not allowed to take photos at the shipper's site, so the content would come from stock images.
  • You have not asked shippers whether their cargo or name may appear, and a post without consent would damage the relationship.
  • No one can answer a comment or message on the same day, so interest would go cold in public.

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
Should we post on every platform?
No. Choose the one where your shippers already look, which for pharma and large food accounts is LinkedIn, and add a chat broadcast for small shippers. A thin presence on six platforms helps nobody.
Can drivers post from the road?
Only under a rule you set. Drivers can send photos to a supervisor, who checks for client details and posts. A live post from a cab can show a plate, a gate or a carton label.
Do posts bring loads?
A post rarely brings a load by itself. It gives a shipper who has already heard of you a reason to trust the first call, and it gives your sales head something to forward.
Can we post a client's cargo or logo?
Not without their written permission. Some shippers, pharma ones especially, ban any mention of their loads. Show your own vehicle, unit and logger, and blur the labels. Ask the quality or logistics head before each post that includes their product.
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.
