Management consulting firms · Social media

Make each partner's LinkedIn profile read like the start of a conversation.

Social media marketing for a consulting firm is mostly LinkedIn, and mostly the partners' own profiles rather than the firm's page. GullySales works on profile wording, a stock of post ideas from real client questions and a review step so the partner approves every line.

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 management consulting firms

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

  • “The buyer reads the partner before the call”

    A promoter given a partner's name opens LinkedIn that evening. A profile that lists a job history and nothing else leaves the buyer guessing. A profile that says which problems the partner works on and for which kind of company gives the buyer something to say on the call.

  • “A firm page gets little attention beside a partner”

    People follow people. A partner's note on a sector problem is read by the partner's contacts, and the firm's page then shows the same note to those who want to look further. The firm page supports the partners, not the other way round.

  • “Posts that sound like a brochure are skipped”

    A post announcing a new offering is scrolled past. A post that starts from a question a CEO asked this week, with the partner's view in plain words, gets a reply from someone who has the same question.

  • “Confidential work limits what can be posted”

    A partner cannot describe the client or the figures. They can describe the situation in general, the mistake they see repeatedly and what they would look at first, and that is the post worth writing.

What we do

What we deliver for management consulting firms.

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

  1. Partner profile rewrites

    Headline, summary and featured items rewritten around the problems the partner solves and the company types served.

    Result: A visitor can say in a sentence what the partner is hired for.

  2. A bank of post ideas drawn from client questions

    A running list of questions, mistakes and observations that each partner supplies in a short conversation, turned into drafts.

    Result: A partner opens a list of ready drafts instead of a blank page.

  3. A partner review step

    Every post goes to the partner as a draft, and nothing is published without approval.

    Result: The voice on each profile is the partner's own.

  4. An engagement list

    The referrers, former clients and target promoters whose posts the partner reads and comments on.

    Result: Each partner has a short named list of people to engage with.

  5. A conversation log from LinkedIn

    Messages and meeting requests that came from the platform, entered in the lead sheet with the post that prompted them.

    Result: The partners see which posts started conversations.

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 to plan

Each post should open a question a promoter has asked a partner.

Why the second plant lost money
A partner's reflection on a pattern seen across engagements, with no client named, ending in the questions to ask before expanding.
What a CEO should ask a consultant before signing
A checklist post covering scope, team, exit and who does the work. It shows the partner's confidence to be questioned.
Notes from a sector roundtable
A summary of themes heard at an event the partner attended, credited to the host and with no attributed remarks.
Comment on a policy or budget change
A short partner view on how a rule affects mid-sized companies in one sector, written in plain words after the partner reviews it.
Why partners should post at all
A candid post from a partner explaining why they write, which helps colleagues and referrers see the firm's way of thinking.

Who it is for

This is written for these management consulting firms.

  • Independent practices run by one or two senior partners
  • Small firms of ten to thirty consultants serving mid-sized companies
  • Operations and performance improvement firms
  • Organisation and people transformation firms
  • Public sector and government advisory practices
  • Industry-specialist firms for pharma, auto components or textiles
  • Family business and promoter group advisory firms
  • Offshoots of chartered accountancy firms that added management consulting

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your partners will not review drafts, and a post sent without their approval would put their name on words they did not write.
  • You have no engagement list or contact route for the people who respond to a post.
  • Most of your work is government advisory, where a public body buys through rulebooks and not through a LinkedIn post.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

Social media marketing for management consulting firms: 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 partners are uncomfortable posting. Is that a problem?
It is common among senior people. We start from a short conversation and write drafts from what the partner says, and the partner decides what goes out. A partner who posts rarely but well is better than one who posts to a schedule.
Should the firm run LinkedIn ads?
Consider it only for a specific event or note aimed at a defined group of roles. Check the platform's current rules and costs before you decide, and judge it by conversations in the lead sheet.
What about other platforms?
For this trade, LinkedIn carries the weight because the buyers are company heads and their advisers. We would add another platform only if your buyers are demonstrably there.
How do we handle a post that mentions a client's industry too closely?
Remove any detail that could identify the client, even indirectly, such as a town, a product or a year. If a reader could guess who it is, it is too close. When in doubt, ask the client in writing before publishing.
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.
