GullySales

Business coaches and corporate trainers · Reputation management

Be ready for the call one HR head makes to another about you.

Reputation management for a coach or trainer is looking after what participants and clients say, and the call one HR head makes to another before signing. GullySales gathers consented feedback and recommendations, watches what search shows for your name, and drafts the reply when a session lands badly.

A statue plinth seen close: the bronze figure implied only by its feet and the hem of its drapery above the top of the frame, one face of the stone pedestal scrubbed pale and the other still grimy and carrying a scrawl of paint, with a pressure hose coiled on the steps beside a bucket, brushes and cloths

What reputation management means

Reputation management is watching what is said about your business across Google, social media and review sites, and responding to it before it changes a buyer's mind. GullySales monitors mentions, drafts responses to negative reviews and flags recurring complaints back to your team.

For business coaches and corporate trainers

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

  • The reference check is a phone call you never hear

    Before a purchase order is raised, an HR head rings someone in their own network who has used you. What that person remembers decides it.

  • Feedback forms are your proof, and they are sitting in a folder

    Scores and comments collected at the end of every batch are the only evidence you own. They count for nothing until a participant agrees you may quote them.

  • A session that landed badly needs an answer, not silence

    When a batch rates a programme poorly, the HR head has to explain the spend upstairs. A trainer who comes back with what they would change keeps the account.

What we do

What we deliver for business coaches and corporate trainers.

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

  1. Consent asked for at the end of every programme

    A permission line on the feedback form covering the quote, the name, the role and the company, collected while the session is fresh.

    Result: You build a library of quotes you are allowed to publish.

  2. A reference list you can hand over

    Past clients and participants who have agreed to take a call, sorted by programme and industry so the right name goes with the right enquiry.

    Result: The back-channel call reaches someone who will speak well of you.

  3. LinkedIn recommendations from named participants

    A routine for asking managers who did your programme to write on their own profile, where a buyer can see where they work.

    Result: Your proof carries a face and a job title, not an initial.

  4. Your own name watched in search and on social

    Alerts on your name and your company name, so a stale profile, a wrong listing or a public complaint is found by you first.

    Result: Nothing about you surprises a buyer before it surprises you.

  5. A written reply prepared for a poor rating

    A drafted response to a badly rated session: what you saw, what you would change, and what you are offering to put it right.

    Result: The HR head has something in writing to take to their boss.

How the result is measured

  • Average rating
  • Response time to reviews
  • Negative mentions resolved

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

Who it is for

This is written for these business coaches and corporate trainers.

  • Independent corporate trainers for soft skills and leadership

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

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.

    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

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 we quote what participants wrote on feedback forms?
Only with their permission, so ask at the end of every programme. A quote with a name, a role and a company carries weight. An anonymous one reads like something you wrote.
A batch rated us badly. What do we send the HR head?
A short written note within two days. Say what you saw in the room, what you would change, and offer to redo a session. The HR head needs something they can forward.
Do we need to be empanelled with a company before we can train there?
Often, yes, for larger companies. Procurement usually wants GST and PAN details, bank information and sometimes an MSME certificate before it raises a purchase order. We keep these in a ready kit, so an approved proposal does not lose weeks to paperwork.
Should a trainer publish rates on the website?
For corporate programmes, usually not, since the fee depends on group size, days and customisation. For life coaching packages, a starting price can save time on discovery calls with people who cannot afford the package.
How long is the contract?
Three to six months at a time. There is no twelve-month lock, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
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.
