Contract logistics providers · Content marketing
Answer the questions a supply chain head asks before he invites you to bid.
Content marketing for contract logistics is the guides, site notes and comparisons that supply chain heads, procurement teams and consultants read while deciding whom to invite. GullySales writes them from the questions your operations and sales people hear on every site visit, so the buyer arrives knowing how you run a site and how you charge.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
What content marketing means
Content marketing is writing articles, guides and pages that answer the questions buyers search before they are ready to enquire. This makes your business visible and trusted before the first call. GullySales plans this content from the free audit onward, choosing topics that match real search demand rather than guesses.

Sales and marketing for contract logistics providers, the overview.

For contract logistics providers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The deck covers the network, the buyer asks about the move”
A client worries about the day his stock leaves his own godown. A deck about branches and fleet size never mentions it.
“Pricing models arrive unexplained”
Procurement sees fixed and variable charges, a minimum volume and an escalation clause, and cannot tell which one is the real cost.
“Your site head knows the answers and nobody writes them down”
He explains cycle counts and shift handovers to every visitor. The knowledge goes home with him each evening.
What we do
What we deliver for contract logistics providers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A guide to moving your warehouse to a provider
The data you will be asked for, who attends from your side, how stock is moved and what happens if something goes wrong, written by the people who run transitions.
Result: A nervous buyer can see the move before he agrees to it.
A plain guide to how contract logistics is priced
Fixed charges, variable charges, minimum volumes, open-book and gain-share explained with labelled blanks in place of figures.
Result: Procurement understands the model before it compares rates.
A note on own warehouse or contract
When outsourcing suits a manufacturer, when it does not, and the questions to settle before issuing an RFQ.
Result: A buyer reaches you at the point of deciding.
Site notes by the people who run the floor
How inventory is counted, how a shift is handed over, how errors are caught and how a damaged pallet is reported.
Result: Operations buyers read the way you work before they visit.
A peak and shutdown planning note
What changes around the festive peak, the year-end and a plant shutdown, and what the provider needs to be told in advance.
Result: A client plans the busy weeks with you, not after them.
Client stories with permission
The type of site, the problem and what changed, published only with the client's written yes and without figures it has not approved.
Result: A buyer sees the work done for someone like him.
How the result is measured
- Pages published
- Organic traffic
- Enquiries from content pages
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Questions buyers ask first
The questions a supply chain head asks before inviting a provider to bid, and the piece that answers each.
- What happens to our stock on the day we move?
- A transition guide covering the stock count, the cut-over date, the parallel run and who signs off at each stage. Written by the person who has run one, not by a copywriter.
- How will you charge us if volumes swing?
- A pricing explainer with fixed and variable charges laid out, a minimum volume explained and a worked layout with blanks, so procurement fills in its own numbers.
- Will your people be compliant on our work?
- A compliance note listing the registrations and records you hold for contract labour and what an audit team can inspect. State what you hold, and check the detail with your own adviser.
- Can you plug into our ERP?
- An integration note naming the systems you have connected to before, how orders and stock reports move and who on your side owns the link.
- What do we do in the festive peak?
- A peak plan showing the extra manning, the dock schedule and the cut-off dates a client must meet. Buyers read this to judge whether you have done it before.
- What if we want to leave in a few years?
- An exit and transition-out note setting out the notice, the stock handover and the data handed back. Buyers trust a provider who says it plainly.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.

- 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. Every step gives you something in writing.
First
Free audit call
90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
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.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
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.
At renewal
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.
How the work runs for contract logistics providers
- 1
Listen to how bids are won and lost

- 2

An RFI library, a pricing explainer and a site visit pack that operations and sales both use.
- 3
Be on the shortlist
Capability pages, corridor outreach and a consultant briefing aimed at the people who draw the list.
- 4
Run the visit and the proposal
A bid tracker, a data request, a clarification log and a follow-up routine through the decision.
- 5
Report on contracts, not activity
RFIs, visits, proposals and contracts against the baseline taken before anything changed.

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.

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
