Bicycle stores · Social media

A cycle looks best in a short clip of a child riding it for the first time.

Social media marketing for a bicycle store means posting the cycles, the workshop and the riders on the platforms where parents and riding groups already look. GullySales works on what to show, how to plan it around the buying seasons and who answers the messages that follow.

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 bicycle stores

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

  • “A cycle is sold by being ridden”

    A flat photo of a cycle on a white floor tells a parent nothing. A short clip of the cycle in the street, the seat being adjusted and the child's first wobble shows the thing they are buying and is easy to share.

  • “The workshop is content you already have”

    A mechanic truing a wheel, a chain being cleaned and a before and after of a neglected cycle need no studio. They show care, answer the worry about repair quality and bring in people who only want service.

  • “Riding groups follow a shop that shows up”

    A club posts its ride route and tags the shop that gave a service camp. Appearing in their photos is worth more than a paid post, and it needs the shop to turn up at events, not just post about them.

  • “Posts without a next step waste the attention”

    A reel that ends with nothing leaves the viewer admiring and doing nothing. Each post needs a clear action: ask for a size, book a service or visit on a named day, with a person ready to answer.

What we do

What we deliver for bicycle stores.

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

  1. A content plan around the cycle year

    A calendar tied to school holidays, birthdays, festivals and the riding season, with post ideas for each.

    Result: The team knows what to shoot before the stock arrives.

  2. A shot list for the shop floor

    A short list of clips to film on a phone: a test ride, a seat adjustment, a gear change and a tyre repair.

    Result: Anyone in the shop can film something that works.

  3. A workshop series

    A simple repeating post format showing one repair, what was wrong and what was done.

    Result: Repair customers see the work before they bring in a cycle.

  4. Event and group posts

    Posts that tag the clubs, schools and associations you work with, with their permission.

    Result: Group audiences see the shop beside people they know.

  5. A message reply routine

    Saved replies and a named person for comments and direct messages, with size questions answered first.

    Result: Every comment or message about a cycle gets a person's reply.

  6. A post review

    A look at which posts brought messages, visits or service bookings, not only taps.

    Result: You see what actually brings buyers into the shop.

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.

Who it is for

This is written for these bicycle stores.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the social media work runs

  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.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

Your brief

Tell us what you need, and we will read it before we call.

Eight short steps about your business, what you want and who decides. Most questions are a tap, and you can skip any you would rather answer on the call.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which platform matters most for a cycle shop?
The one where your buyers already are. Parents and commuters are on Instagram and Facebook, and WhatsApp carries the conversation. We look at where your own enquiries come from before choosing.
Do we need to show children in our posts?
Not necessarily. Show cycles, hands and handlebars if you prefer. If a child appears, get the parent's clear permission first, and check the platform's current rules on posts that include minors.
Will posting more bring more customers?
Not by itself. Posts that show a cycle being ridden or a repair being done, with a clear next step and someone to reply, bring more than extra posts without those.
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.
