Footwear stores · Social media

Show the pair on a foot, in the shop, with a size and a way to ask.

Social media marketing for a footwear store is the steady showing of real pairs, new arrivals and trial-bench moments to people who live near the shop. GullySales works on what is posted, what each post asks the viewer to do, and who sees it.

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 footwear stores

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

  • “A catalogue post gets scrolled past”

    A flat photograph of a pair on a white background looks like every online listing. A pair on a foot, in a hand, on the shelf beside the price tag looks like a shop that is open.

  • “The viewer wants the size before the style”

    A post that shows a pair but hides which sizes are in stock sends the viewer to a message thread. Naming the sizes that are on the shelf today saves a question and fills the trial bench.

  • “Local reach matters more than follower counts”

    A thousand followers across the country buy nothing from a shop in one town. A smaller group of people within a short ride of the door matters more than a large one far away.

  • “Staff are the best presenters”

    A salesperson who knows the fit of each pair can speak for thirty seconds into a phone. That clip is more trusted than a polished advertisement because it shows the person the buyer will meet.

What we do

What we deliver for footwear stores.

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

  1. A plan of post types

    Four repeatable post types, such as new arrival, size in stock, fit advice and festival pairs, with a note on what each one asks the viewer to do.

    Result: A fixed set of posts so the feed is never a blank page.

  2. Photograph and clip guidance for staff

    A short sheet on how to shoot a pair on a foot, a shelf and a trial, using the phone already in the shop.

    Result: Staff can make a usable post without an outside photographer.

  3. Posts for school, monsoon and wedding seasons

    Season posts drafted before the buying starts, showing the pairs and the sizes held.

    Result: The season feed is ready before the rush.

  4. Local audience set-up for paid posts

    Paid reach aimed at the streets and schools around the shop, with a message button.

    Result: Paid posts reach people who can visit, not the whole country.

  5. A reply routine for comments and messages

    Saved answers on price, size and stock, with a rule for when to move to WhatsApp.

    Result: Comments are answered in the same words by every staff member.

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

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 should a shoe shop use first?
Pick the one where your buyers already message you. For a family shoe shop in India that is Instagram for showing pairs and WhatsApp for answering, and Facebook for the older local audience.
Do we need to post every day?
No. A feed that posts steadily with real pairs is better than a burst followed by silence. Decide a rhythm the shop can keep during the busy season and write it down.
Can we use brand photographs?
Check the brand's own guidelines before reusing its images or claims. A franchise shop is bound by them, and your own photographs of your shelves are safer and more convincing.
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.
