Metal finishing companies · Social media

Let a polished lid, a brushed panel and a clean edge do the talking on social media.

Social media for a metal finisher is a place to show finished work to the makers who judge by eye. GullySales plans what to photograph and post, and keeps the focus on the buyers who send parts rather than on followers.

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 metal finishing companies

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

  • “The finish is the post”

    A before-and-after of a weld seam blended into a satin surface says more than any caption. Short clips of a buffing wheel at work hold attention on a phone because the change is visible in seconds.

  • “Fabricators watch what other fabricators share”

    Makers follow suppliers and each other. A finished batch tagged with the maker's permission puts your work in front of that maker's contacts, which is where a referral starts.

  • “The audience is narrow and that is fine”

    Only the buyers of finishing matter here: utensil makers, machine shops, exporters. A modest audience of those buyers is worth more than a large audience of general viewers.

  • “Customer parts need permission”

    A maker may not want a new product shown before launch. Ask before posting any customer part, and show your own test pieces or approved work when permission is not given.

What we do

What we deliver for metal finishing companies.

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

  1. A photo and clip routine at the bench

    A simple way for your team to capture raw, in-process and finished pieces on a plain background.

    Result: The shop produces usable images as a by-product of ordinary work.

  2. A post plan by finish

    Posts built around mirror, satin, deburring, tumbling and blasting, each with a call to send a sample.

    Result: Each post shows one finish and ends in one request.

  3. A permission note for customer work

    A short message asking a customer before their parts are shown, kept with the job record.

    Result: You know which jobs you may show.

  4. Profile set up for buyers

    A bio, a pinned post and links that lead to your sample route and WhatsApp number.

    Result: A buyer who finds you can ask for a sample in one tap.

  5. Enquiry tagging

    A note on every enquiry that says whether it came from social media.

    Result: You see whether social posts bring any sample requests.

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

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

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, 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 a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which platform suits a finishing shop?
Start where makers already are in your region, such as Instagram, Facebook and YouTube for short clips, and LinkedIn for exporters and larger buyers. Pick one or two and keep them alive instead of opening all four.
Is paid promotion worth it?
Yes, for a specific offer aimed at makers in your area, such as deburring in lots. We compare any spend against sample requests received, and we do not promise a result.
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.
