Lighting designers · Social media
Show how a room feels when the light is designed, in a short clip a designer will save.
Social media marketing for a lighting designer means showing finished and in-progress schemes on the platforms where architects, interior designers and homeowners already look. GullySales plans the posts, the captions and the posting routine so the studio's feed explains the work and not only the result.
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 lighting designers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A lit room looks flat in a still image”
The effect of dimming, colour temperature and layers of light shows only when the view moves or changes. A short clip that goes from one scene to another says more than a perfect photograph, and costs a phone and a steady hand.
“The audience is professional and visual”
Architects and interior designers follow studios whose work they might recommend. They save posts that teach something: how a cove was detailed, why a fitting was hidden. A post that teaches earns a place in their reference folders.
“Posting stops when the project gets busy”
A studio's feed goes quiet exactly when work is plentiful. A small stock of captured material from each site visit lets posts continue without starting from nothing each time.
“Showing a client's home needs permission”
A residential scheme is private. Before any image appears, the client's consent should be written down, and some details, such as the address, are best left out entirely.
What we do
What we deliver for lighting designers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Content plan built on site material
A plan that turns site visits, mock-ups and finished views into posts, with a note of what to capture at each stage.
Result: The studio knows what to photograph on the next site visit.
Short clips of scene changes
Edited clips showing one space moving through its lighting scenes, with a plain caption naming the idea behind each.
Result: Each clip makes one design point a viewer can repeat.
Caption and hashtag guide
Wording for captions that name the space, the design idea and the studio, in the studio's own voice.
Result: Captions are consistent and read as the studio's, not a template.
Client permission note
A one-page consent form for showing a project, kept with the project record.
Result: Every published project has a consent on file.
Post record
A simple list of what was posted, where, and which enquiries followed.
Result: The studio can see which posts brought a conversation.
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.

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

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.
