Home improvement stores · Social media

Show the finished room and the shelf it came from, on the feed a family scrolls.

Social media marketing for a home improvement store means posting the rooms, the fixes and the products that make a household want to start the job, and tying each post back to the project desk. GullySales works on the post formats, the product tagging and the reply routine, not on follower counts.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

Home improvement companies: show a real physical business scene illustrating Lead and sales pipeline. Record the enquiry source, book the site survey, and chase until the householder signs or turns the quote down.

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 home improvement stores

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

  • “A finished room sells the whole basket”

    A photograph of a painted wall tells a viewer nothing about the cost. A finished kitchen with the paint, tiles, handles and light fitting named underneath sends a family to the project desk with a list in hand.

  • “The counter staff are the best explainers”

    Someone who spends the day telling customers which plug fits which socket makes a clear short video. A recording of that explanation, shot at the shelf, shows the store knows its goods better than a polished advertisement does.

  • “Contractors share what other contractors saved”

    Handymen and painters pass useful posts around their own groups. A clear guide to a common fix or a new product, made for them, travels further than a festive offer and brings the store to a decision-maker.

  • “Saved posts are the quiet measure”

    A family planning a renovation saves the posts they will return to. How-to and checklist posts get saved for later, while a sale poster gets a glance and is gone. Plan more of the first kind.

What we do

What we deliver for home improvement stores.

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

  1. A room-reveal post format

    A repeatable layout showing the finished room with each product, brand and department named underneath.

    Result: Each post sends a viewer to the project desk with a ready list.

  2. Fix-it videos shot at the shelf

    Short clips of counter staff showing one fix, with the products used shown on screen.

    Result: The store has a library of clips built from real counter questions.

  3. Posts made for contractors

    Guides on products and methods written in the language of the trade and shared in contractor groups.

    Result: Contractors recognise the store as one that knows the job.

  4. A reply routine for messages and comments

    A short written rule for who answers, what is asked in return and when a chat moves to a call.

    Result: A message about a room is picked up by the project desk, not left.

  5. A season-led posting plan

    Posts matched to waterproofing, summer fittings and festive lighting, prepared ahead of each season.

    Result: The posts reach the audience before the need, not after.

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

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which platform should the store use first?
Choose the one your customers already use to ask you things. That means Instagram for rooms and a Facebook page for local reach, with YouTube for longer guides. Look at where your enquiries come from before opening anything new.
Should staff appear in the videos?
Yes, with their agreement. A familiar face at the counter builds trust before the visit. Agree in writing who may appear, and what happens to a clip if the person leaves the store.
Can we post customers' finished rooms?
Only with the owner's clear consent, and without showing the address or the family. Check the platform's current rules on tagging and photographs of homes before publishing anyone's room.
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.
