Television production houses · Social media
Post the work that a commissioning editor and a casting agent would share onward.
Social media marketing for a television production house is the steady posting of sets, scenes, crew and credits where the trade, talent and agencies are already looking. GullySales plans the posts around the people in the industry who follow and forward them.
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 television production houses
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The audience is the trade, not the viewer”
The channel owns the viewer relationship. Your followers who matter are programming people, agencies, writers, directors and actors. A post that only repeats the channel's promotion adds nothing for them.
“Behind-the-scenes posts show the engine”
A commissioner worried about delivery of a daily show wants to see a working unit: sets, a writers' room, a post suite. Short clips and photographs of how an episode comes together answer that worry without a word of pitch.
“Talent and crew posts need permission”
Photographs of actors, child artists and crew on set involve consent and contracts with the channel. Posting a still before the channel has promoted the show can annoy the buyer and damage the relationship.
“Platforms suit different material”
LinkedIn suits credits, hires and trade news. Instagram suits sets and short clips. YouTube suits showreels and trailers once public. Posting identical material everywhere makes each platform feel like an afterthought.
What we do
What we deliver for television production houses.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Platform plan for the trade
A choice of the platforms where programming people, agencies and talent are present, and what each is used for.
Result: A short document stating what goes on each platform and why.
Post formats for production work
Repeatable formats such as a set walk-through, a crew introduction, a premiere announcement and a writers' room note.
Result: A set of templates the team can fill without starting from a blank page.
Permissions checklist
A checklist covering channel approval, artist consent, music and location clearance before a post goes live.
Result: Nothing is posted before the permissions listed are confirmed.
A posting calendar tied to your shows
Posts planned around a show's shoot, its release and its renewal, so social activity follows the production.
Result: A calendar that matches the production schedule rather than random days.
Profile set-up
Names, descriptions, links and pinned posts on each profile, pointing channels and agencies to the right enquiry page.
Result: A visitor to any profile can reach the correct contact in one step.
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
Post what a programming head would forward to a colleague, not what a viewer would like.
- A set built for a show
- A short walk through a finished set with the art director named. Show only what the channel has released, and add the show title only once it is cleared.
- A writers' room day
- A photo or short clip of the team breaking an episode, with the head writer credited by permission. It shows the engine behind a serial, which buyers cannot see in a reel.
- A crew credit after a wrap
- A thank-you post naming the unit that finished a schedule. It signals a stable crew, which matters to a channel that has seen houses lose their teams mid-season.
- A format teaser without the reveal
- One still and a line from a new concept, held back from a full pitch. It tells the trade what you are developing while keeping the idea protected.
- A festival or award mention
- A post when a show is selected or recognised, using the announcement the festival itself made. Only report what is on the festival's own list.
Who it is for
This is written for these television production houses.
- Fiction serial and daily soap production houses
- Reality and game-show format producers
- News and current-affairs programme producers
- Non-fiction and documentary series producers
- Regional-language channel suppliers
- Branded-content and corporate-programme producers
- Format adaptation houses that localise international shows
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- No one on the team has the cast, crew or channel permission to post stills, so posts would sit in a draft folder.
- You want viewer followers for a show, which is the channel's promotion job and not yours.
- The house has made no new work lately, and the feed would only show old material as if it were current.
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.
