E-commerce · Sports Equipment

Every cricketer has an opinion on bats, and the page has to talk to it.

In cricket, the bat is a purchase of conviction. The buyer has a favourite make, a number in mind for weight, and a friend who swears by a particular grade of willow. They arrive having decided and look for a reason to trust the seller with it.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

Cricket product collection

In one paragraph

Cricket equipment online covers bats, balls, pads, gloves, helmets, shoes, kit bags and clothing, sold to school children, club players and tournament players who care about willow grade, weight and the right size. GullySales works on how your listings explain bats and protective gear for each level, how local coaches and academies are reached, and how the tournament season is planned.

Other cricket gear has its own buyer. Parents of a child starting at an academy need a full kit in the right size, bought once, and replaced when the child outgrows it.

Who it is for

This is written for you if you sell cricket online.

  • Bat makers and cricket brands selling on their own sites and marketplaces
  • Sports dealers who stock bats, balls, pads and gloves and want orders from other cities
  • Sellers of tennis-ball and leather-ball kit for school and club players
  • Suppliers who sell full team kits to academies, schools and corporate teams

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • A seller who cannot say which grade of willow a bat is made from or hopes the buyer will not ask
  • A store that wants to list protective gear as safe or approved without documents to show

How buyers choose

What decides the sale of cricket.

  1. Willow, weight and the pick-up

    Kashmir or English willow, the grade, the weight in grams, the shape of the blade and the spine. Buyers who play seriously read these before the price.

  2. Size by age and height

    Bats and pads come in junior sizes numbered by age and height, and a child who grows fast needs a chart that shows when to move up.

  3. Leather ball or tennis ball

    The same player may need a leather-ball bat for the academy and a tennis-ball bat for the street. Listing both under one name sends buyers to the wrong one.

  4. Protective gear and fit

    Helmets, gloves, pads and guards depend on fit. A buyer wants to know how to measure, and an exchange route if it is wrong.

Where sales are lost

What usually goes wrong when you sell cricket online.

In the words sellers use on the first call.

  • “Players say a bat looks great online but feels wrong”

    The pick-up cannot be shown in a photograph. Without weight, balance and a way to exchange, the sale goes to the dealer with a trial net.

  • “Parents buy a bat that is too big”

    A child's bat bought too large to grow into causes bad habits and a return. Listings that show size only as a number lose the parent.

  • “Sales vanish outside the season”

    Orders are heavy before school tournaments and the league and thin afterwards. The same buyers are not told when the next one begins.

What we do

What you get for cricket.

Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

  1. A bat specification template

    Willow, grade, weight, edges, spine, grip and recommended level, in one block, so buyers can compare your bats with one another and with rivals.

  2. A kit size chart for children

    Bat, pad and glove sizes by age and height, with a guide to the next size up, for parents who buy twice as the child grows.

  3. An academy kit order page

    A form for team kit that asks for quantity, sizes and colours, with a quotation follow-up written for a coach.

  4. A season-start calendar by city

    School tournament and league dates that matter for your main cities, with a plan for ads and stock in the weeks before.

How the result is measured

  • Purchases
  • Conversion rate
  • Customer acquisition cost
  • Average order value
  • Return rate
  • Team kit quotation requests

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 piece of work.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. 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.

  6. 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 we talk.

None of it has to be tidy. We read what you have.

  • Your bats with the willow grade and weight range for each
  • Return reasons, especially bats that were the wrong size or weight
  • Academies or schools you supply, or want to
  • Photographs and videos of your bats in use
  • Which months your bat and kit sales rose and fell, across two seasons

Selling in India and abroad

Selling cricket 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.

  1. Cricket communities abroad

    Indian and South Asian players in the Gulf, the UK, Australia and North America buy bats from India. Your orders from overseas addresses show which city and which kind of bat.

  2. Wood, weight and customs

    A bat is a long, awkward parcel, and rules on shipping wood differ by country. Courier cost and customs are checked before listing for any market.

FAQ

Questions about selling cricket online.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

How do I sell cricket bats without a shop to try them in?
Give the player what they would feel in a shop: weight, balance and level, plus an exchange route if the pick-up is wrong. A video of a local player in the nets helps. We look at which bats are returned most first.
What is the difference between a leather-ball and a tennis-ball bat page?
Different buyers, different pages. The leather-ball buyer asks about grade and protection, the tennis-ball buyer about price and weight. One page for both loses each of them.
Can I say my helmet is safe?
Only what you can show, with the documents behind it. What a helmet or guard must meet is for your adviser and the regulator to say, and it changes. We write the fit and the feel and leave the safety claim to you.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on what is being changed and how many of the people who matter see it. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever the work touches, such as your profiles, your website or your accounts, and time with the people who can answer our questions.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.

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 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

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

Engagement options

Ways to work with us.

Pick the size of commitment that fits. Every option starts with your brief and a conversation.

  1. Option 1

    A call after you send your brief. It says honestly whether you need outside help, and many fixes are ones your own team can make.

  2. Option 2

    One fix, scoped

    Start with the fix that matters most, such as reply time or follow-up. The fee is in writing before anything starts.

  3. Option 3

    An ongoing programme

    We run the work, report against the baseline, and you renew on the numbers. The term and the reporting are agreed in writing first.

  4. Option 4

    Guidance for your own team or agency

    We plan, brief and check the work of your in-house team or current agency, instead of replacing them.
