Commercial vehicle repair workshops · Lead generation

A breakdown call is one lead, and a fleet that stays is a different one.

Lead generation for a commercial vehicle workshop means getting two kinds of call: the driver stuck at the roadside who needs a tow and a mechanic, and the fleet manager who is choosing a yard for the next year. GullySales works on the sources, the replies and the records behind both.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For commercial vehicle repair workshops

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

  • “The roadside call is won by whoever is findable and answers”

    A driver with a failed clutch rings the owner, and the owner asks around. The workshop on the highway search, with a number that is picked up and a road name that matches, is the one named in that chain of calls.

  • “Dispatchers and supervisors decide, not the driver”

    The driver describes the fault, but the dispatcher or the fleet supervisor picks the workshop. Your name must reach that desk before the breakdown happens, through a card, a message or a site visit.

  • “Fleet leads come through trust and a trial”

    A fleet manager does not move trucks to a new yard on a brochure. They send one or two trucks, watch the estimate, the work and the invoice, and then decide. The lead is the trial, so the trial has to be easy to ask for.

  • “Parts dealers, tyre shops and toll-side dhabas hear first”

    The people who see a stranded truck before anyone are the parts counter and the roadside tea stall. A short list of those contacts, kept warm, sends breakdown calls your way without any advertising spend.

What we do

What we deliver for commercial vehicle repair workshops.

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

  1. A source record for every job

    Each job logged as search, Maps, dispatcher, referral, parts dealer or repeat customer, taken from your job card book.

    Result: You can see which source fills the yard.

  2. A breakdown page with the number and the road

    A page and a listing that give the highway stretch you cover, the night hours, the tow arrangement and the number that is answered.

    Result: A driver can act on the first screen.

  3. A fleet trial offer

    A written offer to take a trial set of trucks with a fixed estimate format and an invoice the accounts desk can pass.

    Result: A fleet manager has a safe way to try you.

  4. A contact list of dispatchers and parts dealers

    A named list of the desks and counters that send trucks your way, with the date of the last conversation.

    Result: Referrals have a person behind them.

  5. A message for transport associations

    A short introduction for truck owners' associations and bus operators, sent through the people who run them.

    Result: Associations know what the workshop handles.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

How the lead generation work runs

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

    Understand your capacity

    We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  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 · you are here

    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.

Should we advertise on highway hoardings or online?
Test both against the jobs you record. Hoardings reach drivers who pass, while search reaches owners and dispatchers who plan. Your job card book shows which brought trucks, and we read it before we suggest where to spend.
How do we get fleet owners and not just one-off breakdowns?
Treat the first breakdown as a trial. Send a clear estimate, keep the truck's record and message the owner when the next service falls due. Fleets stay with the yard that remembers each truck.
Can we promise a quick repair in our advertising?
Only if your own records back the claim. A repair depends on the part, the fault and the queue. Give a date after the estimate and keep it, and do not advertise a speed you cannot hold.
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 the trade, the channel and what is already in place. 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 this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
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.
