Turn followers on Instagram and YouTube into an audience a sponsor can buy.

Social media marketing for an entertainment portal covers the Instagram pages, YouTube channel and other social accounts that carry trailers, reaction clips and news to fans. GullySales plans those accounts around the release calendar and works out how a sponsor can buy them together with the site.

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 entertainment portals

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

  • “Followers on a page are not yet a product”

    A channel with a large following earns nothing until a sponsor can see what is on offer. Without a format, a price and a sample, the social pages stay a marketing cost instead of a line on the rate card.

  • “Fans share what makes them look informed”

    A first look, a clean cast list or a correct release date gets passed around. A hurried post with an error gets corrected in the comments in public. Accuracy is part of the content plan, not an afterthought.

  • “Each platform asks for a different clip”

    A vertical reel, a long review video and a quick poll carry the same story differently. Cutting one piece of footage into three shapes is cheaper than shooting three times, and it keeps the posting tied to one release.

  • “Comment sections carry the brand-safety risk”

    A sponsor placed beside a celebrity row inherits the tone of the replies. A moderation rule that is written down lets a planner see what the sponsor is joining.

What we do

What we deliver for entertainment portals.

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

  1. A release-linked social calendar

    Posts and videos placed against the titles on your release calendar, with the format for each platform.

    Result: The team knows what goes out for each title and where.

  2. A sponsor-ready social format sheet

    Descriptions of the sponsored reels, video features and giveaways you sell, with a sample of each.

    Result: A planner can see what a social buy looks like.

  3. A correction and moderation rule

    A short note on how errors are fixed in public and how comments are handled.

    Result: An advertiser can read how the pages are kept in order.

  4. A bundled offer across site, video and social

    One description of the combined buy, replacing three separate asks.

    Result: A sponsor receives one offer, not three.

  5. A platform check of current rules

    A note of what each platform currently allows for sponsored posts and giveaways, to be rechecked before each campaign.

    Result: The team checks the platform's current rules before a sponsored post goes live.

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.

Will social media posts bring sponsors by themselves?
No. Posts build an audience, and a sponsor still needs a format and a rate. GullySales connects the social pages to the offer so the audience can be sold.
Which platform should a portal put effort into?
The one where your readers already are, checked against your own analytics. A music portal and a film-news portal rarely share the same answer.
Can you run our accounts?
GullySales can plan the calendar and formats, and work with your team on the accounts. Your editors keep control of what is said about stars and films.
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.
