Business coaches and corporate trainers · Social media

Post for the HR head who approves the budget, not for other trainers.

Social media for a coach or trainer is where a buyer watches you for months before enquiring: LinkedIn for corporate work, Instagram for individual clients. GullySales writes for the buyer instead of for peers, and reports who is actually reading 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 business coaches and corporate trainers

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

  • “Likes from other coaches feel like progress and are not”

    An L and D head reads without reacting. Forty likes from fellow trainers can be worth less than four from people who run teams.

  • “Thirty seconds from a real session beats a quote card”

    A clip of you handling a difficult question shows a buyer what a day with you is like. A motivational graphic shows nothing, and the client's permission comes first.

  • “The individual buyer follows one channel for months”

    Someone who eventually pays for a coaching package has watched you for half a year in one place. Spreading across four resets that clock.

What we do

What we deliver for business coaches and corporate trainers.

The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.

  1. A posting plan written for HR heads and founders

    Posts built from the questions participants ask in the room, aimed at the people who own the problem and sign the purchase order.

    Result: The reading comes from buyers rather than from competitors.

  2. Session clips, with permission agreed in the proposal

    Short clips from your own programmes and talks, with the recording and publishing permission written into the agreement before the session.

    Result: You can show the room instead of describing it.

  3. One channel chosen for the individual buyer

    A single platform for life and career coaching work, picked on where your clients already spend time, with a posting rhythm you can hold.

    Result: A follower gets a continuous story rather than four half-finished ones.

  4. Outreach to the companies you want to work with

    A named list of HR and business heads at target companies, with connection requests and messages that reference their problem, not your brochure.

    Result: Your posts reach people who can actually book you.

  5. A count of profile visits and enquiries

    Reporting on who viewed the profile, which roles they hold and how many enquiries followed, rather than a likes total.

    Result: You can tell an engaged post from a useful one.

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.

Platform for this buyer

Where an HR head or a client looks at a trainer, and what to post in each place.

LinkedIn, for HR heads and founders
Post one question from the room and your answer, from your own profile. The reader who signs the purchase order is your audience, not other coaches. The action wanted is a connection request.
YouTube, for a recorded talk
Keep one talk or workshop excerpt a buyer can watch before a discovery call. It shows how you hold a room. The action is to send the link with the proposal.
Instagram, for individual clients
Use short reels on one habit or question, in the language your clients speak. The action is to book a discovery call. Pick this only if your individual clients really spend time there.
WhatsApp for past participants
Send a short follow-up note to people who attended a programme and agreed to hear from you, with one idea to try. The action is to forward it to the HR head who booked you.
What not to post
A participant's name or comment about an employer, photographs of a client's training room, a client's logo without permission, or a coaching client's personal story. Never use therapy or diagnosis words.

Who it is for

This is written for these business coaches and corporate trainers.

  • Independent corporate trainers for soft skills and leadership
  • Sales training and sales coaching specialists
  • Executive coaches for senior managers and CXOs
  • Business coaches for founders, family businesses and SMEs
  • Training companies with a panel of facilitators
  • Life coaches for career, relationships and wellbeing
  • Outbound, team-building and offsite facilitators
  • Communication, public speaking and presentation trainers
  • Behavioural assessment and psychometric practitioners

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You have no client permission to show session clips, and the only posts left would be quote cards.
  • You cannot reply to comments and messages from buyers the same working day, so interest would go cold.
  • Your buyers are individuals who find you by referral, and a corporate posting plan would reach the wrong audience.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

Social media marketing for business coaches and corporate trainers: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Review the posts that produced useful conversations, not only the ones with the most views. Gather buyer questions and decide which team member can contribute credible material.

Make the scope clear

Choose the audience and channel before setting a posting volume. Agree who supplies material, approves posts, and handles messages, including complaints or questions the agency cannot answer.

Check the work in use

Follow a post through to the profile, website, and response. A useful report explains the quality of conversations and enquiries, alongside reach and engagement.

Know when to change course

If publishing takes time away from unanswered buyer messages, fix the response routine first. Do not expand to another channel without a clear reason for being there.

These are discussion points, not a fixed package. GullySales confirms the deliverables, responsibilities, fee, and term in writing after reading your brief and speaking with you.

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. 1

    Platform and access agreement

    We confirm the audience and platforms covered, then check account ownership. You retain control of the pages and grant the access needed for the agreed work.

  2. 2

    Content input handover

    Your team supplies approved product information and usable images or footage. We review existing posts and agree who will answer factual questions during drafting.

  3. 3

    Calendar approval

    You review the proposed themes and response routes. Missing information is identified before posts enter production, rather than holding up a finished calendar.

  4. 4

    Draft approval and publication

    The named approver checks captions and creative files before scheduling. We also agree which replies can be sent directly and which need your team's decision.

  5. 5

    Sales handover and content decisions

    Buying questions go to the agreed sales contact with the conversation attached. Reported enquiries and sales feedback guide changes to the next calendar.

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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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
Our LinkedIn posts get likes but no enquiries. Why?
Because the audience is other trainers. Write about the problem a manager has on Monday morning, comment where HR heads gather, and keep the programme page one click away.
Can we post photographs from a client's training room?
Only with written permission, and plenty of companies refuse. Ask at the proposal stage, when it is a line in the agreement rather than a favour afterwards.
Can we show the logos of companies we have trained?
Only with each company's permission, and some contracts forbid it outright. Certificates and your own credentials are safe to show. A line saying you have worked with companies in a sector, without names, is a fair way to show range.
Is a free webinar a good way to find corporate buyers?
It can be, if you ask each registrant for their role and company and have a named follow-up for the people who fit. Without that, you collect an audience of students and other trainers. Keep the pitch short, and call the HR heads who attended.
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.
