Employer branding · Media and entertainment

Most of the people who put your channel on air are not on your payroll.

Employer branding for a broadcaster covers staff roles, shift roles and the freelance crew who choose their next show on payment record and the line producer's name. GullySales writes the careers content, the crew-facing material and the job posts that say what a shift on your floor is really like.

In one paragraph

Employer branding for a broadcaster covers staff roles, shift roles and the freelance crew who choose their next show on payment record and the line producer's name. GullySales writes the careers content, the crew-facing material and the job posts that say what a shift on your floor is really like.

For TV, radio and OTT companies

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

  • The crew market is a WhatsApp group you are not in

    An editor picks his next show by asking three people whether the last invoice was cleared and whether the production head shouts. That conversation decides your staffing for the season, and no careers page enters it unless your existing crew repeats it.

  • Playout runs at three in the morning

    Master control, ingest and live feeds are a night rotation. Your site shows a lit studio floor and a presenter, and the engineer reading it has no idea the job is a week of nights followed by a week of mornings.

  • Voices and faces build followings and take them along

    An RJ or an anchor arrives with an audience and leaves with a bigger one. A station that never credits its own talent is training people for the competition and getting nothing back for it.

  • Content and ad sales compete with different companies

    Your sales team is being called by digital platforms and brand-side marketing roles; your production team is being called by studios and streaming shows. One employer story written for both persuades neither of them.

What we do

What we deliver for TV, radio and OTT companies.

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

  1. A careers page split three ways

    Staff positions, shift-based technical roles and freelance crew engagements described separately, because the person reading each one is making a different decision.

    Result: A cameraman and a sales manager both find something written for them.

  2. The crew note nobody writes

    How a rate is agreed, who signs the call sheet, what the payment cycle is and who to chase, put in writing from your own production finance process.

    Result: A freelance editor says yes without ringing around first.

  3. Shift patterns stated in the job post

    The rotation for master control, ingest and live operations, meal and transport arrangements as they exist, and what a handover looks like.

    Result: Engineers who accept the role already knowing about the night weeks.

  4. Your talent credited on your own channels

    Anchors, RJs and producers given profiles under the station's name, with a written line on what they may post from the studio.

    Result: Talent that grows with the station instead of away from it.

  5. Stories from the people who stayed a decade

    Interviews with the production assistant who became a producer and the engineer who moved from ingest to operations, recorded and used as said.

    Result: A path a young hire can see, which regional channels rarely show.

How the result is measured

  • Applications received per open role
  • Careers page engagement and time on page
  • Candidate drop-off during the interview process
  • Referral hires as a share of total hires

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.

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.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 05 · Every month

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.

  6. 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 TV, radio and OTT companies

  1. 1

    Talk to current employees

    We interview a cross-section of staff honestly, including some who might raise uncomfortable points.

  2. 2

    Find the genuine reasons to join

    We identify what is actually true and attractive about working there, rather than generic claims that could apply anywhere.

  3. 3

    Build the careers content

    The careers page, job post templates and employee stories are written from what staff actually said.

  4. 4

    Review the candidate experience

    We check what happens between application and offer, since branding cannot fix a process that loses candidates through delay.

  5. 5

    Hand over and refresh periodically

    Content is handed over for ongoing use and revisited periodically as the team and roles change.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Freelancers are not our employees. Why write anything for them?
Because they decide whether your next show is crewed, and they decide it by asking each other about you. A reputation for clearing invoices on the day you said is worth more in that market than any rate card, and it is worth stating openly. If your payments are actually running late, do not publish a payment cycle. Written down and then missed, it travels further than the page ever will.
Do you find crew, or manage contracts and payments?
No. GullySales does not recruit, does not supply crew and does not handle contracts, rates or payroll. Our work is the careers page, the job posts and the material your production and HR teams hand over.
We are a regional channel competing with a streaming platform for the same editor.
Then compete on the things a platform cannot offer: the size of the credit, how fast work goes on air, and access to a head of production who watches the cut himself. If none of those are true at your channel, a careers page will not invent them, and the audit will say so.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped in the free audit and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How soon will we see results?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile usually show in weeks, because the enquiries already exist. Ads show in days once follow-up is ready. SEO and content take months. The audit tells you which applies to you.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you meet on the audit call. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
For the audit, last month's enquiries in any format and 45 minutes with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM, and time for the monthly review.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Every month is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. Terms run three to six months at a time, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
