Courier companies · Reputation management
You get one star for a delay caused two states away.
Reputation for a courier counter is mostly about shipments you handed over and no longer control. A parcel stuck in transit, a customs hold, a delivery attempt that never happened. GullySales sets up monitoring, a reply routine that gives the sender a real next step, and a review request once delivery is confirmed.
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 courier companies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The complaint is about the network and the review is about you”
A parcel delayed in another state gets written up on your counter's listing, because yours is the name and the face the sender knows.
“A customs hold sounds like an excuse”
Food held at the destination is the sender's worst experience of you. Explaining what the destination country allows, before booking, is what stops the review.
“The national rating is not your rating”
A brand's own reviews are full of delivery complaints from across the country. Your counter's listing, with recent answered reviews, is the only part you control.
What we do
What we deliver for courier companies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Monitoring on your counter's listing and local groups
Reviews, directory entries and area groups checked on a routine, with anything new taken to whoever can chase the shipment.
Result: A complaint is caught while the parcel can still be found.
A reply routine that gives a next step
Replies that state where the shipment is, what has been escalated and which person at your counter is handling it.
Result: The next reader sees a counter that takes charge.
An escalation route into the network, written down
Who to contact at the hub, in what order and with what reference, so a stuck shipment gets chased the same way every time.
Result: Your staff stop telling a customer to wait and see.
Expectations set at the booking counter
Transit times, what customs at the other end may do, and what is not promised, said aloud and printed on the counter sheet.
Result: The complaint is prevented while the parcel is being packed.
Review requests sent on delivery confirmation
The request going out with the delivery confirmation on WhatsApp, rather than when the parcel is booked.
Result: You ask at the only moment the customer is thinking about you.
A complaint log with what was actually done
Every complaint recorded with the shipment number, the cause and the outcome, reviewed each month for what keeps recurring.
Result: The same problem stops arriving every festival.
Reviews summarised each month by cause
New reviews, the rating, the reply rate and whether the cause was transit, customs or the counter, against the starting position.
Result: You can separate your problems from the network's.
How the result is measured

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.

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.
