Travel agencies and tour operators · Social media
Post your own departures, not stock pictures of Switzerland.
Social media for a travel agency is the proof that real families travelled with you and came back pleased. GullySales plans what gets shot on each departure, turns it into the season's posts, and stops the enquiries arriving in the messages from being lost.
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.

Sales and marketing for travel agencies and tour operators, the overview.
For travel agencies and tour operators
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A stock Bali sunset brings nothing”
Every agency posts the same downloaded view. A photograph of twenty-two people from your own city on that beach brings messages.
“The saving happens months before the booking”
Travellers save reels of a destination long before any dates exist, so the caption has to say which trip and from where.
“Instagram messages are enquiries”
They arrive at night, in half sentences, and go unanswered because nobody treats that inbox as a source of bookings.
What we do
What we deliver for travel agencies and tour operators.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A shot plan the tour manager can follow
A short list of what to capture on each departure, including the group photograph, the hotel, a meal and one moment people talk about afterwards.
Result: Every trip comes back with something to post.
Traveller permission asked on the trip itself
Consent for photographs and reviews taken on the last day with a note of who agreed, so nothing gets posted that a family did not expect.
Result: You use the pictures without an awkward message later.
Captions that name the trip and the departure city
Each post saying which package it is, which month it ran and where the group left from, with the WhatsApp number in the profile.
Result: A reel saved in December still turns into an enquiry in March.
Instagram and Facebook given different jobs
Reels and stories for the younger traveller planning a honeymoon, Facebook for the senior citizen groups and yatra departures where that audience still sits.
Result: Each platform carries the trips its readers book.
The messages inbox treated as an enquiry queue
Instagram and Facebook messages checked twice a day by a named person and logged alongside the phone and website enquiries.
Result: A question asked at night has an answer by morning.
A backlog banked for the off-season
Posts prepared from the last season's material before the quiet months begin, so the feed does not go dead through July.
Result: The account keeps working when nobody is travelling.
How the result is measured
- Posts published
- Engagement rate
- Enquiries from social profiles
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.
Who it is for
This is written for these travel agencies and tour operators.
- Retail travel agencies selling domestic packages
- Tour operators running their own group departures
- International holiday and honeymoon specialists
- Pilgrimage and yatra tour organisers
- Air, rail and bus ticketing agents
- Corporate travel and MICE agencies

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
- You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
- You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.
How it works
From your first message to the first monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
45 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · Within a few working days
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope and fee come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
06 · Month 3 to 6
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. No twelve-month lock.
How the work runs for travel agencies and tour operators
- 1
Assess
We look at where enquiries come from, how fast you reply, how quotes are written and followed up, and how many travellers return.
- 2
Fix the quote and follow-up
A clear itinerary format and a WhatsApp routine, so each quote gets an answer, yes or no.
- 3
Show real trips
Pages for your signature packages and a routine for collecting traveller photographs and reviews.
- 4
Fill the calendar
Seasonal campaigns planned months ahead, plus corporate, school and pilgrimage outreach for the quieter periods.
- 5
Bring travellers back
A past traveller calendar and referral ask, so the family you took to Kerala asks you about Kashmir.

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 monthly 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 lock-in, no guarantees we cannot keep
Three to six months at a time. 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.
#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.
