Ceramic tile manufacturers · Social media

Show your tiles on real walls, then send the viewer to a dealer who stocks them.

Social media marketing for a tile maker means showing finished rooms to homeowners and designers, then pointing them to the nearest dealer. GullySales plans the room images and posts around your series and manages the link back to the dealer list.

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 ceramic tile manufacturers

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

  • “A tile is judged on the wall, not on the tile”

    A flat photograph of a single piece tells a viewer little. A bathroom or kitchen wall finished in the series shows scale, colour and grout, and that is the image people save.

  • “Designers follow, homeowners save”

    Instagram and Pinterest are where a designer collects references and a family planning a renovation collects ideas. A saved room image is a quiet lead that needs a dealer name beside it.

  • “Dealers share what is easy to share”

    A dealer who receives a ready poster or a room image for their own WhatsApp status or page will post it. A dealer given nothing posts a rival's material instead.

  • “Posting without a destination wastes the effort”

    A viewer who likes a room image and cannot find where to buy it moves on. Every post needs a path to a dealer locator or a sample request.

What we do

What we deliver for ceramic tile manufacturers.

The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.

  1. A room-image library

    Photographs and rendered room scenes for each series, in formats suited to each platform.

    Result: Each series has room images ready for posts, dealers and the website.

  2. A content plan by series

    A plan that gives each new and core series its turn, with captions that name the series, the rooms and the dealer link.

    Result: Posts follow the sales plan, not whatever image is nearest.

  3. A dealer share pack

    Posters, short videos and caption text for dealers to post on their own pages and status.

    Result: Dealers hold material they can post in one tap.

  4. A designer-facing page

    A profile or board that groups the series by style for designers who browse and specify.

    Result: A designer finds the series by look and requests a sample box.

  5. A reply routine

    A named person who answers comments and messages and passes dealer questions to your sales team.

    Result: Every message on your page has an owner.

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.

Who it is for

This is written for these ceramic tile manufacturers.

  • Wall tile manufacturers for bathrooms and kitchens
  • Floor tile manufacturers for homes and offices
  • Parking and outdoor tile makers
  • Digital print ceramic tile producers
  • Regional makers selling through dealers in a few states
  • Makers focused on export buyers
  • Producers supplying builders and developers directly
  • Plants in tile clusters selling to traders and exporters

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your room images are made on screen and not from real fitted rooms, and a designer who visits would see the difference.
  • There is no dealer in the towns where you want to post, so a viewer would have nowhere to go.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

Social media marketing for ceramic tile manufacturers: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Review the posts that produced useful conversations, not only the ones with the most views. Gather buyer questions and decide which team member can contribute credible material.

Make the scope clear

Choose the audience and channel before setting a posting volume. Agree who supplies material, approves posts, and handles messages, including complaints or questions the agency cannot answer.

Check the work in use

Follow a post through to the profile, website, and response. A useful report explains the quality of conversations and enquiries, alongside reach and engagement.

Know when to change course

If publishing takes time away from unanswered buyer messages, fix the response routine first. Do not expand to another channel without a clear reason for being there.

These are discussion points, not a fixed package. GullySales confirms the deliverables, responsibilities, fee, and term in writing after reading your brief and speaking with you.

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

    Platform and access agreement

    We confirm the audience and platforms covered, then check account ownership. You retain control of the pages and grant the access needed for the agreed work.

  2. 2

    Content input handover

    Your team supplies approved product information and usable images or footage. We review existing posts and agree who will answer factual questions during drafting.

  3. 3

    Calendar approval

    You review the proposed themes and response routes. Missing information is identified before posts enter production, rather than holding up a finished calendar.

  4. 4

    Draft approval and publication

    The named approver checks captions and creative files before scheduling. We also agree which replies can be sent directly and which need your team's decision.

  5. 5

    Sales handover and content decisions

    Buying questions go to the agreed sales contact with the conversation attached. Reported enquiries and sales feedback guide changes to the next calendar.

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.

Which platform matters most for tiles?
Instagram and Pinterest suit room images that designers and families save. Facebook reaches dealers and contractors. We start where your buyers already look.
Do we need to post every day?
No fixed rhythm is needed. A steady plan of good room images beats a rush of weak ones, and the plan is set against what your team can answer.
Can social media replace dealer visits?
No. It makes the dealer's job easier by sending interested people to the wall. The visit still decides what is displayed.
Can we post a dealer's customer's home?
Only with the homeowner's written agreement, and without the address. Some people agree to a photograph but not to being identified, so ask for the permission you need and keep the record.
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.
