Cafes and coffee shops · Pay per click advertising
Pay to be seen by someone searching for brunch this Saturday.
Coffee shop PPC is paid search and social advertising set to a radius someone would actually walk, timed to a push such as weekend brunch. GullySales runs the campaign, writes the offer page behind it, and reports what the spend bought in walk-ins and bookings.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
What pay per click advertising means
Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend daily against enquiries received.

For cafes and coffee shops
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A tight radius beats a wide one”
Advertising to people five kilometres away wastes budget on customers unlikely to make the trip for a coffee, unlike a one to two kilometre radius set around the cafe.
“A new outlet's first month needs a different budget than year two”
Awareness spend to announce a new location works differently from a smaller, ongoing budget defending Saturday brunch bookings once the cafe is established.
“Ads should point to a specific offer, not the homepage”
An ad for a weekday work-from-cafe deal that sends someone to a generic homepage undersells the actual reason they clicked.
What we do
What we deliver for cafes and coffee shops.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Radius-set local search campaign
A paid search and social campaign limited to the one or two kilometres a customer would actually walk.
Result: Ad spend reaches people who could realistically visit this week.
Launch or opening-week campaign
A separate campaign plan for a new outlet's first weeks, built for awareness rather than an ongoing weekly budget.
Result: A new outlet gets noticed by the neighbourhood from its first week open.
Offer-specific landing page
A page built for the exact offer named in the ad, such as the weekday work-from-cafe deal, instead of the homepage.
Result: A person who clicks sees exactly what the ad promised.
Ad spend and enquiry report
A report showing what the ad spend produced in bookings, calls or orders.
Result: You see what the spend is actually buying before renewing it.
How the result is measured
- Cost per click
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries from paid search
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Who it is for
This is written for these cafes and coffee shops.
- Independent single-outlet cafes
- Specialty coffee roasters with a cafe
- Cafes inside co-working spaces
- Bakery cafes
- Cafe chains opening new outlets
- Cloud kitchen and delivery-only cafes
- Cafes attached to bookstores or art spaces
- Late-night and student-area cafes
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.
How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · After the call
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.
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.
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.
05 · As agreed
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.
06 · At the end of the term
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

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 later 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 guarantees we cannot keep
The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.
