Electrical panel manufacturers · Social media

Show the shop floor to the consultants and engineers who never visit it.

Social media marketing for a panel manufacturer means using LinkedIn and a few other channels to let specifiers and plant buyers see your work before they ask for a quote. GullySales works on what your team photographs, what is posted and which people see it.

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 electrical panel manufacturers

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

  • “LinkedIn is where specifiers and EPC engineers look”

    Consultants and project engineers keep their professional profiles there. A post of a finished MCC with its wiring open reaches the people who write make lists, which a broad post to a general audience never does.

  • “Wiring neatness is a selling point you hide”

    Buyers judge a panel shop by the back of the panel, the labelling and the cable dressing. Your team sees this daily and posts nothing, while a smaller rival posts a tidy photograph and is remembered.

  • “Customer permission decides what you can show”

    A panel for a named plant is the customer's work. Show it with written permission from the customer, and otherwise show the panel without the name. A careless post can cost you the next order from the same buyer.

  • “Founders posting beats a company page nobody follows”

    A page with few followers reaches nobody. The owner or the drawing office head, writing plainly about a site problem solved, reaches the buyers who already know their name.

What we do

What we deliver for electrical panel manufacturers.

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

  1. A shop-floor photo routine

    A short guide for your supervisors on what to photograph during assembly and testing, and how to keep names and drawings out of frame.

    Result: New photographs reach the marketing desk without a special shoot.

  2. A posting plan for LinkedIn

    A list of post types, such as a finished panel, a factory test or a site fix, with a plain caption for each.

    Result: Each post has a type, a photograph and an owner.

  3. Permission wording for customer work

    A one-line message to ask a customer if a panel may be shown, and a record of the answer.

    Result: Nothing is posted without a written yes on file.

  4. Profiles for the owner and key engineers

    LinkedIn profiles set up with the company, panel types and a clear introduction for buyers.

    Result: A specifier who looks you up finds a complete profile.

  5. Reading what each post brought

    A note against each post of the comments, messages and profile visits it drew from buyers.

    Result: You see which posts reached the right people.

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 shop-floor posts that a consultant would stop to read.

Neat wiring inside a finished panel
A close photograph of dressed cables and labelled terminals, taken before dispatch, with the panel type and rating in the caption.
Busbar fabrication stage
A shot of the busbar work with a line on the material and the testing that follows, shown without any customer drawing visible.
Routine test on a finished panel
A short clip or photograph of the insulation or functional test, with the engineer who carried it out named by role.
Dispatch day
A panel loaded and wrapped, with the project type and city named only if the customer has agreed in writing.
Founder note on a panel type
A short LinkedIn post by the owner on a design choice, such as the form of separation, written in their own voice.

Who it is for

This is written for these electrical panel manufacturers.

  • LT panel, PCC and MCC builders for industrial plants
  • Distribution board and feeder pillar makers for housing and commercial projects
  • APFC and capacitor panel makers
  • Panel shops working as a vendor to switchgear brand channel partners
  • Fabricators of busbar trunking and rising mains
  • Panel builders for water and sewage pumping stations
  • Solar and DG synchronising panel makers
  • Panel shops serving elevator and HVAC contractors

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • No customer has agreed to be shown, and posting a panel with a nameplate or drawing visible risks a breach of trust.
  • The shop floor is untidy and nobody will clear it before a photograph, which would harm the firm's name.
  • You expect Instagram to bring consultant-specified orders, though consultants look at LinkedIn.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

Social media marketing for electrical panel 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.

Is Instagram worth the effort for a panel shop?
It is rarely where specifiers look. Start with LinkedIn, then add a channel only when a buyer type is seen using it. We check where your enquiries come from before spreading the effort.
What if a customer objects to a photograph?
Remove it at once and apologise. Ask permission before posting, keep a written record and avoid showing names, drawings or site layouts. That protects the relationship that brings the repeat order.
Whose permission do we need to show a panel?
The customer's, in writing, before anything with their name, drawing or site detail goes live. Their panel, nameplate or layout may be confidential. A photograph taken with the label covered, and a caption with no client, avoids most disputes.
Should the owner or the company post?
The owner or a senior engineer, because a person's post is read more than a company page nobody follows. Keep the company page for the facts and have the owner write about design choices. Agree who reviews each post for confidentiality before it goes out.
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.
