E-commerce · Home Textiles
The size on the packet and the size of the bed are not always the same.
Bedsheets are bought in sets and replaced when they wear, which makes them the repeat product of home linen. The buyer has a bed of a certain size and a mattress of a certain depth, and wants the sheet to stay on. A double bed sheet that pops off at the corner is the commonest complaint on every marketplace.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.
In one paragraph
Bedsheet e-commerce is the online sale of flat and fitted sheets with pillow covers, in cotton, microfibre, linen and blends, for single, double, queen and king beds. GullySales works on how your listings give mattress size and depth, thread count and weave, and the colour in a room, and on how buyers of one set are brought back for the next season.
Then there is the cloth. Soft against the skin in April, not hot in May, no pilling by the third wash. The buyer cannot test any of it, and the figures on the page are what they have.

Who it is for
This is written for you if you sell bedsheets online.
- Cotton bedsheet makers selling direct from Karur, Erode or Panipat
- Home linen brands with printed and plain sheet sets
- Marketplace sellers of double and king size bedsheets
- Hotel and hostel linen suppliers who also sell to homes
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- A seller who writes a thread count the fabric cannot carry
- A brand that sells flat sheets as fitted ones in a listing and hopes nobody notices
How buyers choose
What decides the sale of bedsheets.
Flat or fitted, and the mattress depth
A flat sheet tucks, a fitted sheet needs the right pocket depth. Buyers with thick mattresses look for a depth in inches.
Thread count, weave and fibre
Percale for crispness, sateen for sheen, plain cotton for the ordinary. Buyers compare brands by these, and by the words in the reviews.
Print, colour and fade
A printed sheet is bought for how it looks in a bedroom and judged after the wash. The photograph and the second photograph in a review decide it.
Pillow covers and the set
How many are in the pack, what size they are, and whether they match. A set priced low but without pillow covers draws a quick complaint.
Where sales are lost
What usually goes wrong when you sell bedsheets online.
In the words sellers use on the first call.
“The sheet does not fit the corners”
The listing gave the size of the bed, and the buyer's mattress was thicker. A fitted sheet that rides up is returned as a defect.
“The print faded after two washes”
The photograph was vivid and the sheet is dull by the second wash. The review sits on the product and affects every later sale.
“Buyers choose by price and the cheapest wins”
A page that gives only a thread count and a price cannot defend the extra. The buyer cannot see a better weave or a better dye.
The scope
The work we would propose for bedsheets.
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.
- A fit chart on the listingBed size, mattress depth and the sheet pocket depth in one table, with a note on how to measure the mattress.
- Fabric and weave guideA plain page on your cotton, percale and sateen, with the figures, written so a buyer can tell yours from the next.
- Marketplace image setsImages that show the sheet on a bed, the corner, the pack contents and the close-up of the weave, in that order.
- Seasonal reorder messagesA message to earlier buyers before summer and before winter, suggesting the weight and set they have not yet bought.
- After-wash reviewsA request sent after the first wash for a photograph and a line on feel and colour.
What we do
What you get for bedsheets.
Each deliverable and what it is there to change.
A mattress-depth fit table
A single table across bed size and pocket depth, with a diagram on how to measure.
A pack-contents image
A photograph laying out the flat sheet, fitted sheet and covers beside each other, with the sizes written on it.
A fabric and wash page
Cotton type, weave, thread count, wash rules and expected shrinkage, in the same layout for every sheet.
A reorder message for each season
A short WhatsApp and email text that suggests a lighter or heavier sheet for the weather ahead.
How the result is measured
- Purchases
- Conversion rate
- Customer acquisition cost

- Repeat purchase rate
- Returns for fit or fading
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
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 sheet range with fabric, count, weave and pocket depth
- Returns and reviews that mention fit or fading
- Best-selling print designs and colours
- Your marketplace listings for the same sheets
- Repeat buyers and what they bought next
Selling in India and abroad
Selling bedsheets 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.
Sizes and sheet depth by country
A US queen and an Indian queen differ, and fitted pockets are measured differently. A listing for abroad needs its own size table in inches.
Fibre labels and thread-count claims
Some markets read thread count critically. What your labels may say is checked with your adviser, and the first step is the countries already ordering from you.

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
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.
One office, and we say so
