Employer branding · Manufacturing

Your next twenty tailors come from the home village of the twenty on the line.

Employer branding for a textile or garment manufacturer is what a tailor, checker or merchandiser hears before she arrives: from the women already on the line, from her home district and from the hostel.

In one paragraph

Employer branding for a textile or garment manufacturer is what a tailor, checker or merchandiser hears before she arrives: from the women already on the line, from her home district and from the hostel. GullySales writes the careers page and the recruitment messages from what your own workers say.

Also written for

Textile manufacturers, Garment manufacturers, Apparel exporters.

What we do not do

We do not recruit, supply candidates or run payroll. We help candidates see the employer you already are.

Where this sits

For textile and garment manufacturers

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

  • “Recruitment runs on home districts, not on job boards”

    Operators arrive because a sister-in-law already works your line, and they stop arriving when she goes home unhappy at the festival break. That is your hiring channel and it is entirely word of mouth.

  • “The hostel, the crèche and the bus decide it”

    For a migrant operator the factory is the smaller half of the decision. Where she sleeps, who watches her child during the shift and how she gets back after overtime settle the rest.

  • “The date wages land is the reputation”

    Pay reaching the account on the day promised is the single fact that travels furthest. Nothing you publish survives a month when it did not happen.

  • “Merchandisers judge you by the buyers you cannot name”

    Office staff want to know which markets and which buyers, and your contracts usually forbid saying. Describing the product, the seasons and the volumes is the way round it.

What we do

What we deliver for textile and garment manufacturers.

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

  1. Both halves of the factory on one page

    Cutting, sewing, checking and finishing, alongside the merchandising, industrial engineering and quality desks, each described as a job rather than as a department on a chart.

    Result: Applicants who know which side of the factory they applied to.

  2. Facilities described as they are

    Hostel arrangements, crèche timings, transport routes, the canteen and the medical room. Written after somebody has walked through all of them with a notebook.

    Result: A decision a family can make without visiting first.

  3. Your audit evidence turned into hiring material

    If buyers audit your factory, you already document hours, wages, grievance handling and facilities. That record is the raw material for careers copy nobody has to invent.

    Result: Claims on the page you can already prove.

  4. Messages for the home districts

    Short posts and voice messages your existing operators send to their own villages, in the language they speak, with the work, the pay structure and the travel explained.

    Result: Arrivals who knew the job before they got on the bus.

  5. Supervisor and merchandiser posts written apart

    A line supervisor and a merchandiser are choosing different things. Two posts, with the product categories, the seasons and the reporting line each set out.

    Result: Office applications from people who have done the work.

  6. What the women on your line say

    Conversations with operators who have stayed five years and with one who left and came back, recorded with consent and used in their own words.

    Result: The only argument a competing factory cannot copy.

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, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

How the work runs for textile and garment manufacturers

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  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.

Before you hire anyone

The first thing to do yourself.

Read your company the way a good candidate would, before you change anything.

  1. Search for your company name with the word jobs, and read the first page of results as a candidate would.
  2. Read your last ten reviews and list the points that appear more than once.
  3. Ask your three newest joiners why they said yes, and what almost stopped them.

Judge any provider

What to ask any agency or ghost-writer.

Useful whoever you choose, including us.

  • Will you work from what our people actually say, or from a template?
  • Do you do recruiting or supply candidates, or only the employer-brand work?
  • Who approves anything that speaks for our staff?
  • Which of our existing job pages and profiles will you change, and which will you leave alone?
  • What do you count as a result, and what will you not promise?

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

GullySales builds every engagement from three pieces of sales work. This page is not one of them, but the same three steps apply to the business behind it.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can you bring us operators?
No. We do not recruit, we do not work with labour contractors and we have nothing to do with wages. We write the careers page, the job posts and the messages your own workers send home.
Our operators do not read websites. What is the point of a page?
The page is not for them and we would not pretend otherwise. It is for the supervisor, the merchandiser and the quality staff, and for the buyer's auditor who looks you up. What reaches the operator is the voice message her cousin forwards, which we write too, in her language.
Our buyers audit us already. Is this the same work?
No. An audit checks whether you meet a standard. This takes what the audit already recorded and turns it into something a candidate will actually read, which is a different job and a far shorter document. Where an audit found something you are still fixing, it stays off the page until it is fixed.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on what is being changed and how many of the people who matter see it. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever the work touches, such as your profiles, your website or your accounts, and time with the people who can answer our questions.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
