Security services companies · Social media

Use LinkedIn for facility heads and keep hiring posts somewhere else.

Social media for a security agency does two unrelated jobs: reaching the managers and property heads who buy, and reaching guards who want work. GullySales writes the buyer-facing posts for LinkedIn, moves recruitment to where applicants look, and keeps every client's premises out of the pictures.

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 security services companies

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

“A photograph of a client's gate is a security problem”
Camera positions, entry routes and staffing patterns should not be published by the agency guarding them. Your contract probably forbids it anyway.
“The recruitment feed and the sales feed cannot share a page”
A manager scrolling twenty vacancy posts learns one thing, which is that you are short of guards. That is not the impression you were paying for.
“Facility managers change buildings and take vendors with them”
The man who ran the office park last year now runs a mall. Staying visible to that manager is worth more than reaching a thousand strangers.
“Never post about an incident”
A foiled theft feels like proof and reads as a breach of trust. The client has to hear it from you, not read it.

What we do

What we deliver for security services companies.

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

A LinkedIn plan aimed at property and facility heads
A rhythm on the account of whoever handles business development, written about site problems rather than about the agency.
Result: The buyers who move between buildings keep seeing you.
Posts built from site types, never from clients
What a three-shift factory gate needs, what changes when a society hands over, written generally with nothing identifying a building.
Result: You show experience without naming a single site.
An image rule for guards and premises
Written consent from any officer photographed, no client premises, no camera positions, and a named person who approves each picture.
Result: Nothing posted puts a site or a guard at risk.
Recruitment moved to where guards look
Vacancies posted on the job groups and local pages applicants actually use, with the careers number, off the buyer-facing account.
Result: Hiring continues without spoiling the sales feed.
A routine for staying in touch with past contacts
A short list of managers you have worked with, checked for job changes, with a note sent when somebody moves to a new site.
Result: A change of building becomes an enquiry.
Enquiries traced back to the channel
Connection requests, messages and quote requests that mention a post, reported against the baseline recorded before work starts.
Result: You can stop posting where nothing comes back.

Platform for this buyer

Where guard buyers and guards each look, and what goes up for them.

LinkedIn for property and facility heads: Post how a site type is handled: visitor log, gate checks, shift handover, escalation. Show the process, never the client. The action is a message asking for a site assessment.
Residents' association WhatsApp groups: Society secretaries ask each other for agencies here. Give the committee a one-page checklist on guard deployment and verification that they can forward. The action is a call to the office.
Facebook and WhatsApp for guard hiring: Post the site area, shift pattern, whether PF and ESI apply, and a walk-in time at the supervisor's desk. Keep this away from the buyer-facing page so each audience sees its own message.
YouTube or reels on training: Film a morning briefing or a visitor-log drill at your own training room, with no client premises or number plates visible. The action is to request an assessment.
What not to post: Client premises, gate layouts, shift rosters, post numbers, guard names, CCTV screens, and anything that reveals a weakness at a named site. Show your PSARA licence if you hold one.

Who it is for

This is written for these security services companies.

Manned guarding for corporate offices
Residential society and gated community security
Industrial and factory security
Retail and mall security
Event and venue security
CCTV and control room monitoring services
Cash and valuables escort services

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

You have no photographs you may show without a client's consent, and no safe way to take them.
Nobody can reply to messages from property managers, and an unread inbox on LinkedIn is read by those who look.
You plan to use the same feed for hiring and for selling, which weakens both.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need

Can we post photographs of our guards on duty?

Only with the officer's written consent and nothing identifying the client's premises in the frame. A portrait at your own office or a training session is safer and does the same job. Ask your client before anything taken at their site goes anywhere.

Is Instagram worth anything for us?

For hiring, sometimes. For winning contracts, no. A facility manager is not choosing a guarding vendor from a feed, and your effort is better spent on the proposal and the renewal calendar.

A resident tags us in a group post complaining about a guard. Do we reply in public?

Reply once, briefly and politely, say you have noted it and are looking into it, and take the details by phone with the committee. Do not argue the facts or name the guard in public. Record the complaint and what you did.

Should the director's personal profile carry the company's posts?

Yes for LinkedIn, because buyers check the person who signs the contract. Keep it to site types, process and licensing, and do not mention clients. Use the company page for hiring and notices. Add a note on who may speak for the company.

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.
