Plywood and timber dealers · Social media
The carpenter group is the channel, and Instagram reaches the designer.
Social media for a depot is two audiences with nothing in common: carpenters in WhatsApp groups wanting stock and rates, and designers on Instagram wanting to see a veneer matched. GullySales sets the routine for both and writes the rule on posting rates in a public group.
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 plywood and timber dealers, the overview.
For plywood and timber dealers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A rate posted in a group reaches your competitor first”
Every depot on the road sits in that same group, and a rate put up on Monday is being undercut by Tuesday afternoon.
“A veneer being matched is the post designers watch”
Two leaves opened out on the cutting table, grain lined up. That is the one thing in this trade worth filming.
“A carpenter checks the group before he checks the shop”
Stock and new arrivals posted on a fixed day save him a trip, and a depot that posts nothing is the one he stops visiting.
What we do
What we deliver for plywood and timber dealers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Carpenter and designer groups run on a schedule
Separate lists with a fixed posting day, one for stock and rates to the trade, one for ranges and finishes to designers.
Result: The trade knows when to look.
A rule on which rates go out in public
Which prices may be posted to a group, which go only in a direct message, and who is allowed to post at all.
Result: You stop handing your rates to the road.
Short videos from the cutting table
Veneer matching, a laminate being pressed, seasoned timber being sized, filmed in under a minute on a working day.
Result: Designers see craft instead of a price list.
New arrival posts for laminates and veneers
A routine for photographing and posting every new range the day it lands, with the catalogue code written into the caption.
Result: Designers know your ranges before the showroom's.
Finished interiors posted with the designer named
Photographs of completed kitchens and wardrobes, shared with credit to the designer and the carpenter who did the work.
Result: Your referrers get something they want to share.
Enquiries traced back to the group or the feed
A monthly note of which enquiries came from a group message or a post, set against the position before the routine started.
Result: You can tell whether the posting earns.
How the result is measured
- Posts published
- Engagement rate
- Enquiries from social profiles
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.

- You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
- You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.
How it works
From your first message to the first monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
45 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · Within a few working days
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope and fee come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
06 · Month 3 to 6
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. No twelve-month lock.
How the work runs for plywood and timber dealers
- 1
Assess

A single log for quotes and a credit routine for trade accounts, so orders are followed up and dues are collected.
- 3
Build the trust material
A grade explainer, depot photographs, a brand list and a review routine that answers a homeowner's fear of paying for a fake sheet.
- 4
Reach the people who send buyers
A carpenter programme, interior designer visits, builder outreach and local search for homeowners buying directly.
- 5
Keep the referrers active
Monthly contact with every active carpenter and designer, a thank-you for each client referred, and a call to anyone who stops.
Proof
What happened when owners fixed this.
Real clients, the work we did, and the result as it was recorded. Where no number was recorded, none is claimed.

- Print for the launch
- One tone at every touchpoint
- Result
- No numbers were recorded for this engagement. The work is described in full in the case study.

- Search visibility
- Social media on a schedule
- Review management

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.
Marketing and sales, as one job
Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.
A baseline before anything starts
Your numbers are written down on day one, so every monthly report compares against something honest.
The fee in writing, split three ways
Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.
No lock-in, no guarantees we cannot keep
Three to six months at a time. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
