Managed IT service providers · Social media

Show up where office heads and founders talk about the IT trouble they have.

Social media for a managed IT service provider means a steady, plain-spoken presence on LinkedIn and in the groups where office heads, finance controllers and founders swap vendor names. GullySales works on the posts, the profile and the routine that turns a comment or a message into an assessment conversation.

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 managed IT service providers

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

“The buyer is rarely the person scrolling”
The finance head who signs the agreement seldom follows IT accounts. A founder or administration manager sees a post about a leaver whose mailbox stayed open, forwards it, and the conversation starts in someone else's inbox.
“Jargon posts only reach other IT firms”
Posts about patch cycles and endpoint tooling collect likes from competitors. A prospect responds to the situation they recognise: the laptop that froze before a board call, the ex-employee who still has the files.
“A page full of vendor logos says nothing about you”
Partner badges and product announcements are copied from the vendor. The buyer wants to see how your engineers handle a takeover from an old vendor, a missing admin password or an audit questionnaire.
“Engineers hold the proof, and nobody asks them”
The resident engineer who fixed the problem on site knows the story. Without a routine for turning it into a short, client-approved post, the page goes quiet and the profile looks abandoned.

What we do

What we deliver for managed IT service providers.

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

Founder and company profile rewrite
The profiles say who you support, which office sizes and which stack, in the words a finance head searches for.
Result: A stranger can tell in one read whether you serve their kind of office.
A bank of situation-led post ideas
Short posts built on leaver offboarding, audit questionnaires, vendor takeovers and licence reviews, each with a plain scope note.
Result: The owner approves a ready list instead of starting from a blank page.
Client-approved story format
A one-page prompt for engineers to record a problem, the fix and what stayed out of scope, with the client's consent noted.
Result: Each story has a written approval before it is posted.
Group and comment routine
A short list of LinkedIn and WhatsApp communities of accountants, co-working operators and association members, with a note on how to join in without pitching.
Result: You know which rooms you are in and what you said there.
Enquiry capture from social
A tagged link and a reply script so a message from a post is logged with its source.
Result: The CRM shows which posts produced a conversation.

Posts to plan

Write posts around the situations that make a founder look for IT help.

The IT person has resigned: A founder-facing post on what to secure on the last day, such as admin logins and licence ownership, written by an engineer from real handovers.
What a takeover from the old vendor involves: A step list with an anonymised example from your own onboarding, showing what was found and what was fixed, with client consent.
Mailbox and licence tidy-up: A before-and-after screenshot with names removed, showing unused seats on a Microsoft 365 tenant, for finance heads who watch costs.
Engineer explains a backup test: A short clip of an engineer restoring one file from a backup, so a buyer sees what a restore looks like.
Questions to ask any IT provider: A checklist post a founder can forward to their CA, covering access, exit and who sees their files.

Who it is for

This is written for these managed IT service providers.

Per-user support for growing offices without an IT team
Resident engineer and IT facility management providers
Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace managed service partners
Co-managed IT for companies with one in-house IT person
MSPs serving CA firms, clinics and other compliance-heavy offices
Backup and endpoint management specialists
IT support firms for factories and export units
Remote-first providers serving offices in several cities

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

Your engineers have not agreed what they may post, and one screenshot with a client's name would break a contract.
You have no assessment offer for a founder who responds to a post, so interest would go nowhere.
You are aiming at IT staff and vendors rather than at the owners and finance heads who sign.

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
Confirm audience, platforms and access
We note which platforms your buyers use and check that the pages sit under your own business accounts, with you as owner and us as added roles.
2
Review the current presence
We read the existing pages, the posts that drew replies and the gaps in posting.
3
Build the calendar
Themes, formats and dates are set out for your approval, with space for offers and news.
4
Create, approve and publish
Posts are made, approved by you and scheduled. Replies to the public are handled in your voice.
5
Record enquiries and adjust
Enquiries are logged against the post or platform where they began, and the mix changes to follow what brings them.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need

Which platform should an MSP start with?

Start with LinkedIn, because the buyer is a business owner or finance head. Add a WhatsApp community or a YouTube channel only if you can keep it current. One channel kept up is worth more than four abandoned.

Can we name clients in our posts?

Only with their written consent, and some contracts forbid it. Write the story without identifying details unless the client agrees, and keep the approval on file. Check the platform's current rules before you boost a post.

Should engineers post under their own names?

Let them if they want to, and agree the ground rules in advance: no client data, no screenshots of consoles, no criticism of other vendors. A personal profile with a clear role carries trust a logo cannot.

What do we avoid showing from a client's systems?

Avoid any screen with client names, domain names, IP addresses or user lists, even blurred. A leaked detail breaks the trust a managed service rests on. Use a test tenant to take screenshots, and ask clients in writing before describing their situation.

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.
