Employer branding · Real estate and construction

Your supervisors are hired by other supervisors, not by your website.

Employer branding for an MEP or building services contractor is what a technician, a site supervisor and their families work out about you before the job is taken: the sites, the tools, whether PF is actually paid. GullySales puts that into a careers page, job posts and notes your own gangs will forward.

In one paragraph

Employer branding for an MEP or building services contractor is what a technician, a site supervisor and their families work out about you before the job is taken: the sites, the tools, whether PF is actually paid. GullySales puts that into a careers page, job posts and notes your own gangs will forward.

Where this sits

For MEP and building services contractors

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

  • The technician you need is not on a job portal

    A good HVAC technician hears about work from the supervisor they worked under last year. Your careers page reaches that person only if somebody forwards it on WhatsApp, so it has to be short and in the language spoken on site.

  • Families ask about height, not about culture

    A mother asking about the harness, the ladder and who pays the hospital bill has more say in the decision than any recruiter. Not one of them is answered anywhere on a contractor's website.

  • ITI placement officers are a channel you never wrote for

    Industrial training institutes and polytechnics place diploma holders every year and choose who to ring first. They need one clean page about the trade, the training and the first year. Most contractors have never sent them anything.

  • Weekly money beats your annual package

    A technician leaves mid-project for a contractor who pays on the fifth without fail. If your payment is regular, that is worth stating plainly. If it is not, no writing helps.

What we do

What we deliver for MEP and building services contractors.

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

  1. A careers page that opens on a phone

    Roles by trade, plus what a technician counts: PF and ESI, tools, safety kit, site accommodation, overtime, and the date wages land.

    Result: A supervisor forwards one link instead of explaining the same thing eight times.

  2. Job posts in the language of the site

    Each opening written in plain English and in the regional language you recruit in, with a phone number to apply rather than a form nobody fills.

    Result: Applications from people who would never have filled a form.

  3. Certification and training, described as a path

    What you sponsor, from the wireman and supervisor licence process to refrigerant handling and working at height, with who has been through it.

    Result: A twenty-four-year-old sees three years ahead instead of one job.

  4. Safety as your gangs would describe it

    The toolbox talk, the kit issued, and what happened the last time someone refused an unsafe job, in ordinary words.

    Result: The harness question is answered at home before anybody has to ask you.

  5. A note for ITI and polytechnic placement cells

    One page about your trades and your first-year intake, addressed to the placement officer, with a named person to ring.

    Result: Your name comes up when the next batch is placed.

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 MEP and building services contractors

  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.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can you supply us technicians?
No, we are not a manpower agency and we do not run anybody's payroll. The work here is what a candidate reads and what your own people repeat, which is the part a manpower agency cannot fix for you.
Most of our site labour is subcontracted. Does this apply?
It applies to the people on your own rolls: supervisors, site engineers, service technicians and the office. For gang labour the subcontractor's name is doing the hiring, and that is a different problem from the one this solves.
How would you know what our technicians actually think?
We ask them, without a manager in the room, including the ones on their way out. If what comes back is that wages are late, we tell you that instead of writing a careers page around it. The free audit call is where that starts.
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.
