Community development NGOs · Social media

Share the work of each place with consent, context and a named local voice.

Social media marketing for a community NGO is the habit of posting what happened in a village or ward, with context, to funders, partners and neighbours. GullySales works on a posting plan, a consent routine and a shared library so field staff can contribute from their phones.

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 community development NGOs

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

  • “The audience is split across platforms”

    Funders look at a professional network, local residents at a messaging app and young volunteers at a photo platform. One post pasted everywhere reads wrong on each of them.

  • “A photograph without a caption proves nothing”

    A picture of a meeting means little to a stranger. A caption naming the place, the activity and the partner turns the same picture into evidence a funder can ask about.

  • “Consent is easily forgotten in the rush”

    A field worker photographs a distribution day and posts it that evening. Faces of children and vulnerable adults need written consent given in advance, and a post cannot be recalled once it is shared.

  • “Posting stops when the field is busy”

    The season of harvest, floods or exams takes the team away from phones. A plan that depends on one enthusiastic person stops the day that person is posted elsewhere.

What we do

What we deliver for community development NGOs.

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

  1. A posting plan by audience

    A short plan stating which platform serves which audience, what is posted there and who writes it.

    Result: A one-page plan that field staff and the director both understand.

  2. A consent and caption routine

    A standard form and caption format used on every field visit, kept with the photograph.

    Result: No photograph reaches a post without its consent note and place name.

  3. A field-contributor guide

    A simple guide for field workers on taking usable photographs and writing a short update from a phone.

    Result: Field staff can contribute without help from the office.

  4. A content bank of area stories

    A stock of short posts per area, drawn from your records, ready for quiet weeks.

    Result: The page does not go silent when the team is busy.

  5. Comment and message handling rules

    A plan for who answers a question, a complaint or an offer from a post.

    Result: Every message has an owner and a reply route.

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

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

    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.

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 boost posts with money?
Only for a clear purpose, such as a volunteer drive or a local appeal, and only after the organic posts show what the audience responds to. Check the platform's current rules for the cause.
Can we post beneficiary stories?
Only with written consent, in the person's own words where possible, and within your safeguarding policy. Children and vulnerable people are shown only as that policy allows.
Do we need an account on every platform?
No. Choose the platforms where your funders and neighbours actually are, and keep those up. A few active accounts serve better than a crowd of abandoned ones.
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.
