Animal welfare NGOs · Social media
Make each rescue post end in a clear next step, not only a sigh.
Social media marketing for an animal welfare NGO is the use of Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp channels to show the work and gather people who act. GullySales works on what each post asks the viewer to do and on how the replies are recorded.
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 animal welfare NGOs
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A touching reel with no ask raises feeling and nothing else”
The viewer watches, shares and moves on. Without a line that says send help here, adopt here or sponsor here, the post gives the group reach and no supporters.
“Distressing images can lose the post as well as the viewer”
Graphic injuries upset followers and may break platform rules. The animal after treatment, the vet's table and the name of the case carry the story without pushing the viewer away. Check the platform's current rules for sensitive content.
“Every post needs the same three facts”
Where the animal is, what it needs and how to give or help. Posts written in the rush of a rescue skip one of these, and the comments fill with people asking where to send money.
“The audience is split between locals and well-wishers”
Followers in the same city can volunteer, foster and adopt. Followers elsewhere can only give. Posts that say which kind of help is wanted spare locals from sending money and distant followers from asking to visit.
What we do
What we deliver for animal welfare NGOs.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A post plan built around cases, programmes and adoptions
A rotation of rescue updates, recoveries, adoption features and programme explainers, each with a defined ask.
Result: Every post has a purpose and a single next step.
A caption pattern for rescue posts
Where, what happened, what the animal needs and how to help, in the language of your followers.
Result: A volunteer can write a complete caption in a few minutes.
A consent and image guide for volunteers
What to photograph, what to leave out, and permission to note from any person shown or any adopter named.
Result: Posts avoid graphic images and people appear only with consent.
A way to catch replies and messages
Comments and direct messages copied into the lead sheet with what each person wanted.
Result: Nobody who offered to foster or give is lost in the notifications.
A donate path from post to payment
A pinned link, a story highlight and a short code that open the payment page on a phone.
Result: From post to payment is a handful of taps, which you can test yourself.
How the result is measured

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
Understand your audience and platforms
We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.
- 2
Audit current presence
We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.
- 3
Build the content calendar
A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.
- 4
Implement and post
Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.
- 5
Measure and optimise
We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.
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.
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.
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.
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.
