E-commerce · Baby Products
Parents will not order a car seat until someone has told them it fits their car.
A car seat is bought for one child and one car. The parent has a weight, a height and a car, and the question is whether this seat goes in that car and how. A seat that is returned because the belt did not reach, or because the car's back seat is too narrow, is a loss for everyone.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
In one paragraph
Car seat e-commerce is the online sale of infant carriers, convertible seats and booster seats for children travelling in a car, chosen by the child's weight and height and by the vehicle they will be fitted in. GullySales works on pages and replies that put the fitting method and the vehicle question first, on what you may say about safety, and on the enquiry that has to be answered by a person before the order.
This is a product where a page cannot do the whole job. Parents ask which seat for which car, and whether a seat they saw is the right one for their baby, and the answer must come from someone who knows the product and the vehicle. We write the product facts and the questions; what a seat is approved for, and what the rules say, is for your adviser and the regulator.
Last updated 7 Oct 2026. Product, labelling and advertising rules for baby products differ by product and change. We describe them in general terms, so check the current position with your own adviser or the regulator before you publish a claim.
Who it is for
This is written for you if you sell car seats online.
- Brands and importers of infant carriers and convertible car seats
- Sellers of booster seats for older children
- Baby stores that sell car seats alongside strollers and want online enquiries
- Sellers of car seat accessories such as mirrors, covers and seat protectors
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- A seller who wants to say a seat is crash tested, certified or the safest, without papers and adviser approval
- A seller who cannot answer a fitting question by phone or WhatsApp
How buyers choose
What decides the sale of car seats.
Child's weight and height range
Seats are labelled by weight and height ranges, and parents look for a range that covers their child now and for as long as possible after. The label's own ranges are what the page shows.
The fitting method and the car
Whether the seat is fitted with the seat belt or with fixed anchor points, and whether the car has them. Parents ask for a vehicle compatibility list and for a fitting video.
Direction of travel and the baby's position
Rear-facing and forward-facing models, and how a convertible seat changes as the child grows. Buyers read the manual online before ordering.
Size, weight and moving it between cars
A seat that goes between two cars, or onto a stroller frame, has to be light enough for the parent to carry.
Where sales are lost
What usually goes wrong when you sell car seats online.
In the words sellers use on the first call.
“Buyers ask whether it fits their car and I cannot tell from a message”
A compatibility list built from the cars you have tested, with a clear statement of what you have not, answers most of them. For the rest, a video call with the car seat belt in view works.
“The seat was returned because it did not fit”
Seats are bulky and reselling a returned one is hard. A fitting guide before the order and a clear policy on returns of a fitted seat reduce the loss.
“Reviews talk about safety and I cannot argue”
A parent who says a seat felt unsafe is making a statement about their experience. The reply should thank them, ask what they saw, and offer help, and must not claim the seat is safe.
The scope
The work we would propose for car seats.
Measured on purchases, conversion rate, cost to win a customer, average order value and repeat purchases. Anything here that needs a platform or tool we have not used with you is confirmed in the audit before it goes in the scope.
- Fitting and compatibility pagesA compatibility table by car make and model for the cars you have actually fitted, a fitting video, and a note saying what has not been checked.
- A fitting question lineA script for the person who answers, asking the child's weight and height and the car, and a booking for a video call or a visit where the seat can be fitted.
- Search for the child and the carPages for an infant carrier for a newborn, a convertible seat for a toddler, a booster for a school-age child, and for a car seat for a named hatchback or SUV, written about the product and its fit.
- Staged follow-upA message that comes when the child's weight range nears the end of the seat's label range, pointing to the next seat in your range.
A wording review for safety
All page, ad and reply copy about safety and testing is read by your adviser before it is published, and only what you can document is kept.
What we do
What you get for car seats.
Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

A fitting video for each seat
A clip showing the seat going into a car, built from the manual, with the parts and anchor points named.
A seat-by-stage guide
Your seats arranged by the child's weight and height ranges on the label, with the next seat clearly shown.
A claims and safety wording sheet
Words your copy may use and may not, drawn up from your papers and cleared with your adviser.

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.
What we need from you
What to have ready before the audit call.
None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.
- Your seats with manuals and the labelled weight and height ranges
- Any compatibility testing or fitting records you hold
- Returns and enquiries that mention fit
- The cars your buyers ask about most
- Test reports and approvals you hold for each seat
Selling in India and abroad
Selling car seats beyond your own market.
Where you sell decides sizes, units, seasons and returns. We work from Bengaluru and have no overseas office, so for a new country we start from your own sales and the platforms you already use.
Seats are regulated per country
A seat approved for use in one country may not be allowed in another, and what a page may say about it differs. Check with your adviser and the destination's regulator before listing a seat anywhere abroad.
Parents abroad ordering for India
A family visiting India may want a seat for a rental or a relative's car. We start from your own orders to see whether that happens.
