Social Media & Operations for Small Business

Marketing and operations you can actually verify.

I look at what you're spending and how you're running it. Then I pull the real numbers, cut what isn't working, and show you the proof.

Every dollar
traced to what it actually produced
Every vendor
reviewed for overlap and real value

About

Gurvijay Bains

I'm a social media and operations consultant. I work with small businesses across the country.

My background is in work where every recommendation had to hold up. You didn't get to act on a hunch. Every call had to trace back to something real.

That's the whole method here. Pull the actual numbers before forming an opinion, and say so when something isn't working.

I work directly with owners and operators, the people who sign the invoices and feel the results. No layers of account management. Most engagements start with an audit, because it's hard to fix what hasn't been measured.

Approach

Three steps, same order, every time.

No packages of vague "growth hacks." Every engagement runs through the same sequence. Skipping a step is how businesses end up paying for channels and vendors that don't produce.

01 / ASSESS

Full account audit

Every platform, every dollar of spend, every vendor invoice and post from the last 90 days. All of it laid out against what it actually produced: calls, leads, foot traffic.

02 / PLAN

A written plan, not a pitch

What to cut. What to double down on. What to post and when. Specific enough that you could hand it to a new hire on day one.

03 / MEASURE

Monthly reporting, plain language

A short report tied to the numbers that matter to you, not impressions and vanity metrics. You'll know if it's working before the quarter ends.

The Work

What an audit actually looks at

Most small businesses don't have a marketing problem or an operations problem. They have a visibility problem.

Spend and process grew one vendor and one platform at a time. Nobody ever went back to check which parts still earn their place.

An audit puts every channel, invoice, and recurring charge side by side with what it actually produced. Some of it will be working. Some of it won't. The point is to stop guessing which is which.

The standard is simple: if a line item can't be traced to something the business actually got, it goes on the list to cut or fix.
Channels
every platform mapped against attributed results
Vendors
every invoice traced to what it delivers
Overlap
duplicate tools and listings consolidated
A report
in plain language, with what to cut first
Services

Pick where you need the most help.

Most clients start with an audit, then move into ongoing work once I know what's actually worth doing. Social media and operations are sold separately. Plenty of businesses only need one.
