B2C app startups · Social media
Show the app doing one useful thing in a clip a stranger watches to the end.
Social media marketing for a B2C app is the use of Instagram, YouTube, Facebook and community groups to show the app being used and send viewers to the install. GullySales works on the content, the creators and the link that connects a view to a download.
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 B2C app startups
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The feature list does not stop a scroll”
A founder explains the app by its features. The viewer wants to see a problem they recognise being solved in a few seconds. A clip that opens on the moment the task is done earns more attention than one that opens on a logo.
“Creators bring borrowed trust, and borrowed audience mismatch”
A creator whose followers are not your users sends installs that vanish. The match is between the creator's audience, language and the task the app solves. Follower count says little about whether those people will use it.
“The platform decides the shape of the clip”
A vertical short clip, a longer YouTube explainer and a community post each carry a different message. Re-posting one video everywhere wastes the strengths of each. Check the platform's current rules for ads and for how links can be placed.
“Comments are a source of product insight”
Users write what confused them, what they wished the app did and which competitor they prefer. A page that deletes or ignores these loses the cheapest research available, and a slow reply to a payment complaint becomes public.
What we do
What we deliver for B2C app startups.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Content plan by platform
A plan for what each platform carries, such as short clips on Instagram Reels, how-to videos on YouTube and discussion in community groups.
Result: Each platform has a stated job.
Screen-recording clip library
Clips built from real use of the app, each showing one task done from start to finish, with captions in the user's language.
Result: A set of clips your team can post and reuse.
Creator shortlist and brief
A shortlist of creators checked for audience fit and language, and a written brief on what to show, the link to use and the claims to avoid.
Result: A shortlist chosen on fit, with briefs ready.
Tracked links for every post
A separate link for each post and creator so installs can be matched to the post that caused them.
Result: You can tell which post drove which installs.
Comment and review reply routine
Reply wording for questions, bugs and complaints, and a route for passing product feedback to the team.
Result: Public questions answered and feedback logged.
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.
Posts and pieces to plan
The clips and posts that show one task in the app being finished.
- Screen recording of the first task
- A vertical clip of a new user completing the app's main task, captioned in their language. It needs a real device recording, not a mock-up.
- Creator trying the app for a day
- A creator whose audience has the problem uses the app on camera. It needs a written brief on claims to avoid and a tracked link for the creator.
- Answer to a one-star review
- A short reply video or post that addresses a common complaint, such as a failed payment. It needs the fix to be real before it is shown.
- Student or community group post
- A post in a college, hobby or neighbourhood group that explains the app in a line and invites questions. The group admin's permission comes first.
- Before and after the app
- A comparison of the old way of doing the task and the app's way, shown on screen. The old way must be one the audience really uses.
- Feature request answered
- A post crediting a user suggestion that shipped. It needs the user's consent to be named and proves that comments reach the team.
Who it is for
This is written for these B2C app startups.
- Consumer finance and payments apps
- Health, fitness and habit apps
- Food, grocery and quick-delivery apps
- Learning and exam-prep apps for students

- Gaming and entertainment apps
- Social and community apps built around a language or a hobby
- Utility apps for transport, bills or government services
- Subscription apps with a free tier and a paid upgrade
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- Your app has a payment or sign-up bug that is still open, so more social traffic would only collect angry comments.
- No one on the team can reply to comments and reviews, and unanswered public questions would count against the app.
- Your store listing is unfinished, and a clip would send curious viewers to a page that does not convince them.
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
Confirm audience, platforms and access
We note which platforms your buyers use and check that the pages sit under your own business accounts, with you as owner and us as added roles.
- 2
Review the current presence
We read the existing pages, the posts that drew replies and the gaps in posting.
- 3
Build the calendar
Themes, formats and dates are set out for your approval, with space for offers and news.
- 4
Create, approve and publish
Posts are made, approved by you and scheduled. Replies to the public are handled in your voice.
- 5
Record enquiries and adjust
Enquiries are logged against the post or platform where they began, and the mix changes to follow what brings them.
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.
