Industrial construction contractors · Social media

Use LinkedIn and WhatsApp to be remembered by the people who place plant work.

Social media marketing for an industrial construction contractor means showing consultants, suppliers and plant heads that you build well, using what clients allow. It is not a feed of festival greetings. GullySales plans a few posts around real work and a LinkedIn presence for the owner and the project head.

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 industrial construction contractors

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

  • “The audience is small and professional”

    The people who place industrial work are a few hundred consultants, supplier engineers and plant heads in your region. LinkedIn reaches them better than a public Instagram page, and a small steady presence beats a loud one.

  • “Photographs from running plants are restricted”

    Safety and secrecy limit what you can post. Use drawings, shell photographs, equipment-free views and written notes on what the job demanded, after the client has agreed.

  • “People follow people in this trade”

    A plant head trusts the project engineer who explains a floor joint more than a company logo. Posts from the owner and project head, in their own words, carry more weight than a faceless page.

  • “Festival posts add nothing for this buyer”

    A greeting graphic tells a consultant nothing about your crew or your method. A short note on how you protected a running line during a slab pour tells them a great deal.

What we do

What we deliver for industrial construction contractors.

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

  1. A LinkedIn profile for the company and owner

    Company page and personal profile set up with a clear description of the industrial work you do.

    Result: A consultant who looks you up sees plant work, not general building.

  2. A bank of postable work notes

    A list of short notes drawn from real jobs, such as a drainage detail or a night-shift concrete pour, cleared with the client first.

    Result: You hold a list of posts that can be published after client approval.

  3. A client permission routine

    A one-line permission form asked at the start of each job about photographs, drawings and naming.

    Result: Every job has a recorded answer on what may be shown.

  4. A supplier and consultant connection list

    A list of people at machine makers, shed suppliers and consultancies to connect with and follow.

    Result: You know who you are trying to be remembered by.

  5. A simple posting plan

    A short plan of what to post, who writes it and who approves it, kept light enough to keep going.

    Result: Your team knows the plan and who owns each post.

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.

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

    Understand your audience and platforms

    We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.

  2. 2

    Audit current presence

    We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.

  3. 3

    Build the content calendar

    A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

  4. 4

    Implement and post

    Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.

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.

Do industrial buyers really use LinkedIn?
Consultants, procurement heads and supplier engineers do. Plant owners of smaller units may not. Check where your own clients come from before spending effort. We start with the platform your enquiry sheet points to.
Should we run paid social posts?
Not first. The audience is narrow and the cost of reaching the wrong people is high. Organic posts to a connected list come first, and paid promotion is considered only if the numbers support it.
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.
