Caterers · Pay per click advertising
Advertise the menu you cook best, in the months dates get fixed.
Paid advertising for a caterer puts you in front of a family or an admin team while the shortlist is still being made. GullySales runs the search campaigns by menu and guest size, asks for the count and the food preference on the form, and keeps the spend off job seekers.
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 caterers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The guest count decides whether a click is worth anything”
A hundred-guest housewarming and an eight-hundred-guest reception cost the same click and are not the same business.
“Corporate contracts are searched in office hours”
Industrial canteen contractor and office cafeteria vendor get typed by an admin at eleven in the morning, not by a family on a Sunday.
“Cook and helper searches will drain the budget”
Catering jobs, cook vacancy, catering course and catering equipment sit right beside your keywords and turn into nothing.
What we do
What we deliver for caterers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Campaigns split by function and by guest size
Separate budgets for weddings, small home functions, corporate lunches and cafeteria contracts, each with its own wording and its own page.
Result: A wedding budget never gets spent on a birthday enquiry.
A form that asks the count, the date and the food
Guest count, date, venue, and whether the menu is vegetarian, Jain or non-vegetarian, all asked before a quote is built.
Result: You know whether your kitchen can cook it before you ring.
Landing pages showing the menu at that scale
The page behind each advert carrying the menu, the per-plate range and photographs of a function that size, rather than a mixed gallery.
Result: The click sees a function like the one being planned.
Negatives for jobs, courses and equipment
Blocks on catering jobs, cook vacancy, catering course, catering trolley, tiffin service and the searches from people who want to start a catering business.
Result: The budget stops paying for cooks looking for work.
Spend timed to the muhurtham calendar
Budget raised in the months before the main wedding dates in your region and ahead of the corporate year end, then pulled back in the gaps.
Result: You advertise while dates are still being fixed.
Cost per booked date, not cost per click
Spend read each month against enquiries, tastings held and dates booked, measured against the baseline from the audit.
Result: You stop paying for enquiries that never reach a tasting.
How the result is measured
- Cost per click
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries from paid search
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.
Who it is for
This is written for these caterers.
- Wedding and function caterers
- Traditional vegetarian and Brahmin cooks for ceremonies
- Non-vegetarian and biryani specialists

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 monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
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.
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.
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 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
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.

Corporate, small-gathering and festival campaigns for the dates the wedding calendar leaves empty.

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
