Professional makeup artists · Social media
Use Instagram to show the work a bride wants and move the chat to a booking.
Social media marketing for a makeup artist means showing finished looks, process and real brides on the platforms where brides save ideas. GullySales plans what to post, how to reply to messages that follow and how to turn a saved reel into an enquiry.
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 professional makeup artists
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A bride saves reels for months before a message is sent to anyone”
The save is the real signal. A bride collects looks long before messaging an artist. Reels that show a full look from bare skin to finish, in daylight, give the bride something worth saving and a reason to recall your name when the date is fixed.
“Filtered photographs cost trust”
Heavy editing makes a look unfit for the bride who saw it and then met you. Unedited close-ups, in natural light, of different skin tones and ages, tell a bride what to expect on the day. A smaller set of honest posts does more than a long gallery of polished ones.
“The comment and the direct message are separate jobs”
A comment asking about price is public and needs a short reply that moves the conversation to a message. A direct message needs the date, venue and party size asked at once. Treating both the same loses the bride who commented and never wrote.
“Behind-the-scenes posts show reliability”
Photographers and production coordinators watch for an artist who arrives early, packs a kit carefully and handles a large party calmly. A short post of the morning set-up tells them what a caption cannot.
What we do
What we deliver for professional makeup artists.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A content plan around looks and ceremonies
A list of looks and wedding styles to post, matched to the dates your region marries.
Result: A plan of what to post, tied to the wedding calendar.
Reel formats you can film alone
Simple ways to record a transformation, a kit tour and a day-of morning on a phone, between clients.
Result: Formats that need no assistant and no studio.
A consent routine for client photographs
A short message and a record for each bride, saying which photographs may be posted and where.
Result: Every posted photograph has a consent note behind it.
Reply scripts for comments and messages
Two sets of short replies, one for public comments and one for direct messages, each asking for the date.
Result: Comments turn into messages that carry a date.
A highlights set for the profile
Pinned stories and highlights sorted by wedding style, trial, rates and travel.
Result: A bride lands on a profile that answers the first questions.

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
- 1
Understand your audience and platforms
We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.
- 2
Audit current presence
We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.
- 3
Build the content calendar
A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.
- 4
Implement and post
Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.
- 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.
