Residential construction contractors · Social media
Show the house rising floor by floor so a family can watch before they sign.
Social media marketing for a residential contractor means using Instagram, Facebook and YouTube to show houses as they are built and finished, so a family sees the work before the first call. GullySales works on what to post, who approves it and how a viewer reaches the office.
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 residential construction contractors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A finished house is a single photograph, a build is a story”
A family gains more confidence from the footing, the slab, the plaster and the handover in order than from one glossy picture. The sequence shows how the site is run.
“Owners' faces and addresses are not yours to post”
Families are protective of a house they have just built. Without clear permission, even a harmless photograph causes a quarrel. Agree what may be shown before the first brick.
“Followers are not plot owners”
A page followed by masons and suppliers looks busy and produces no enquiries. Posts have to speak to the family deciding, in their words, with a plain way to ask a question.
“The crew has the best material and no time”
The site supervisor takes good pictures all day, but nobody collects them. A shared folder and one person who picks three each time makes the page regular without extra work.
What we do
What we deliver for residential construction contractors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A shot list for each stage of a build
Footing, columns, slab, plaster, flooring and handover, so the site supervisor knows what to photograph.
Result: Every project gives usable pictures.
A permission note signed with the agreement
A short clause on what may be posted and what stays private.
Result: No post causes a dispute with an owner.
Posts written for the deciding family
Captions that name the plot size, floors and town and explain one step of the build in plain words.
Result: A viewer learns something from each post.
A video walk-through format
A short walk through a finished house with the owner's consent, shot upright for the phone.
Result: You have a repeatable video to post.
A reply routine for messages
A named person who answers direct messages and moves serious ones to a phone call.
Result: No message from a family sits unanswered.
How the result is measured

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
Understand your audience and platforms
We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.
- 2
Audit current presence
We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.
- 3
Build the content calendar
A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.
- 4
Implement and post
Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.
- 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.
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.
