Scrap recycling companies · Social media

Show the weighbridge, the sorting and the trucks so sellers trust the yard.

Social media for a scrap yard is the set of posts, photographs and short videos that show how the yard works to people who have not visited. GullySales works on what to post, where purchase and stores people actually look, and how a post leads to a call.

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.

Sales and marketing for scrap recycling companies, the overview.

For scrap recycling companies

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

  • “Trust is built by showing the weighing”

    Sellers worry about short weight. A short video of a truck on the weighbridge, the slip printed and the reading shown does more for that worry than a sentence saying we are honest.

  • “Purchase people use LinkedIn, workshop owners use WhatsApp and Facebook”

    A purchase head at a mill may read LinkedIn. A fabricator is likelier to see a forwarded WhatsApp status. One post cannot fit both audiences, so each platform gets its own use.

  • “Posting the day's rate invites a comparison you cannot win every day”

    Rates swing, and a posted figure is judged by the next yard's figure. Showing sorted material, loaded trucks and tidy stacks earns attention that does not depend on the market.

What we do

What we deliver for scrap recycling companies.

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

  1. A photograph and video routine at the yard

    A short list of what to capture at the weighbridge, the sorting floor and the loading bay, with consent from staff who appear.

    Result: A folder of real yard photographs ready to use.

  2. A LinkedIn page for mill and foundry buyers

    Company page content showing grades handled, quality checks and delivery arrangements for purchase teams.

    Result: A page a purchase head can review before a first call.

  3. WhatsApp status and broadcast content

    Short updates for regular sellers about pickup slots and what you are buying now.

    Result: Content ready for the contacts who already know you.

  4. A post-to-call path

    Every post carries one clear way to call or message, with a note of which post prompted it.

    Result: Enquiries that name the post that prompted them.

  5. A guide to what not to post

    Customer names, vehicle numbers, plant gates and weighbridge slips need permission before they appear online.

    Result: A short checklist your staff can use before posting.

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
Which platform should a scrap yard start with?
Start where your sellers already are. For a yard like yours that is WhatsApp for existing contacts and Google for new ones. Add LinkedIn if mills and foundries are a key buyer group for you.
Can we post photographs of a client's plant?
Only with their permission. A plant's name, gate and goods can be sensitive. Ask first, and stay with photographs of your own yard, vehicles and sorted material.
Will social media bring in factories?
It supports other work. A stores head who gets a call from you may look at your page to see if the yard is real. Photographs of an organised yard make that check go your way.
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.
