Supermarkets · Social media
Show the shelf and the counter on the day, because a supermarket sells today's stock.
Social media marketing for a supermarket is the use of Instagram, Facebook and local groups to show what is on the shelf today and to keep nearby households in mind. GullySales works on the posts, the groups and the replies that connect to a visit.
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 supermarkets
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A post is useful only if the family can reach the store”
A reel about a bakery shelf reaches people across the city who will never drive there. The audience that matters lives within the delivery radius and the residents' groups, so the posts are set up and shared for those streets.
“Fresh arrivals are the content”
The day's vegetables, the fish or meat counter where it exists and the bakery tray change every day, and a buyer wants to know what came in. A photograph taken at the shelf does more than a designed festival poster.
“The comments are enquiries”
Families ask whether an item is in stock, what the price is and whether it can be delivered. A comment left for a day sends the buyer to the next store, so someone at the store owns the replies.
“Residents' groups carry more weight than a store page”
A recommendation from a neighbour in the apartment group outweighs the store's own post. The store earns that by a good basket and a reachable manager, and by sharing offers in a form the secretary can forward.
What we do
What we deliver for supermarkets.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A posting plan built around the shop floor
A set of recurring post types, such as the day's arrivals, a section tour and a festival list, each with a person at the store who takes the photograph.
Result: The store manager knows what to photograph and when.
Photographs and short videos from the shelf
Guidance on framing the fresh section, the bakery and the new arrivals in daylight on an ordinary phone.
Result: Posts show the real shelf and not a stock image.
A reply guide for comments and messages
Short, polite answers for price, stock, timings and delivery, with the point at which a query moves to WhatsApp.
Result: A comment about a price gets a consistent answer.
Group-ready offer cards
A simple, legible offer image with dates and the delivery slot that an association secretary can forward in a group.
Result: The offer travels in the groups with the store name on it.
A festival calendar of posts
Ugadi, Diwali, Eid, Christmas and local festivals planned with the hamper list and the booking date.
Result: Hamper bookings are planned from orders and not from guesswork.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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

Build the content calendar
A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

- 5

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.
