Theatre and performing arts companies · Content marketing
Write about the work so a first-time audience knows what to expect.
Content marketing for a theatre company is the writing, photography and video that tell a stranger what a production feels like and why to book it. GullySales works on the topics, the writing and the pages that carry the company's story.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What content marketing means
Content marketing is writing articles, guides and pages that answer the questions buyers search before they are ready to enquire. This makes your business visible and trusted before the first call. GullySales plans this content from the first conversation onward, choosing topics that match real search demand rather than guesses.

For theatre and performing arts companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A first-time theatre-goer has questions”
What will the play be about, will I follow the language, how long will it run, is it suitable for children. A short guide for each production answers them and removes the hesitation.
“The process is the story”
The making of a play, from the script reading to the set painting, is interesting to people who have never seen one. Writing about it earns attention that the poster does not.
“Institutions want to see the thinking”
A school reading about a workshop wants the aims, the age group and an example session. A sponsor reading about the company wants its history and values. Each reader needs a different piece.
“A director's note is not enough”
A note that speaks to other theatre people does little for a new audience. Plain writing about the story and the experience brings the wider town in.
What we do
What we deliver for theatre and performing arts companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A guide for each production
A page covering story, language, running time, age advice and what to expect.
Result: A new audience member knows what they are booking.
Behind-the-scenes articles
Short pieces on rehearsals, costumes, music and set building, with photographs.
Result: The company has material to share between openings.
A workshop description for schools
A page setting out aims, age groups, activities and requirements, with sample outlines.
Result: A teacher can judge fit without a meeting.
A company story and values page
A clear account of who the company is, what it stages and how it works with partners.
Result: A sponsor or festival can read the company in one sitting.
A video and photograph library
Clips and images organised by production, with captions and credits.
Result: Media is ready when a buyer or festival asks.

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.
