E-commerce · Tools

The buyer wants the drill, but wants to know where it gets repaired before paying for it.

A power tool is a purchase the buyer is afraid of getting wrong. If it burns out in a month the money is gone and so is the Saturday. So the first questions are about the maker's service centre, the warranty card and whether the tool is a real model or a rebadged one.

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

Power Tools product collection

In one paragraph

Power tools are drills, grinders, saws, sanders, rotary hammers and the battery-run versions of each, bought by homeowners for occasional jobs and by contractors for daily use. GullySales builds pages around power, chuck size, battery platform and service support, and routes bulk and contractor buyers to a quotation.

Specifications matter more than in most categories and are harder to compare. Watts, no-load speed, chuck size, impact rate, battery voltage and amp-hours all show up on the page, and a homeowner cannot tell which matters for putting up a curtain rod.

Who it is for

This is written for you if you sell power tools online.

  • Brands and importers of corded and cordless drills, grinders and saws
  • Authorised dealers who sell a maker's range and handle warranty claims
  • Sellers of tool kits that bundle a drill, bits and a case for homes
  • Contractors' suppliers who sell batteries and bare tools in volume

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Sellers with no warranty or service arrangement for what they ship. Power tool buyers ask about repair first.
  • A business whose stock is grey-market or has no maker's guarantee. Our work would draw attention to that.

How buyers choose

What decides the sale of power tools.

  1. Corded or cordless

    A homeowner with a few holes to drill often does better with corded, and a contractor on a site with no socket needs cordless. Buyers ask which, and a page that makes the choice for them gets the sale.

  2. The battery platform

    Once a buyer owns one battery they look for tools that share it. 'Bare tool' listings are searched by battery voltage and brand, and a kit without a charger is often a mistake.

  3. Chuck, impact and wall type

    A drill that is fine for wood will not go into concrete without impact. A 10 mm chuck and a 13 mm chuck take different bits. The page has to say what the tool will and will not drill.

  4. Service centre and warranty

    Buyers look for the nearest service centre in their city, ask whether the invoice carries GST, and check whether the warranty is from the maker or only from you.

Where sales are lost

What usually goes wrong when you sell power tools online.

In the words sellers use on the first call.

  • “The drill came back because it would not go into the wall”

    A plain drill without hammer action was bought for a concrete wall. The page said 'powerful' and never said what it drills, so the return cost two deliveries.

  • “Buyers ask on WhatsApp whether it is original”

    Fake and copy models circulate, and buyers know it. A page with the maker's serial label, the box photograph and the authorised dealer line settles the question earlier.

  • “Our kit has no battery and the review says it does not work”

    A bare tool bought at a kit price. The title and the first image should say plainly what is and is not in the box.

  • “Contractors ask for ten and we have no way to quote”

    A site manager needs ten grinders and a service promise. A single checkout loses that order to the dealer who picks up the phone.

What we do

What you get for power tools.

Each deliverable and what it is there to change.

  1. A 'what will it drill' table

    For each drill, the materials it handles and the bit sizes. It stops returns from buyers who expected concrete.

  2. An in-the-box panel

    A fixed block on every listing showing the tool, battery, charger, case and bits that come with it. It ends the kit-without-battery dispute.

  3. A warranty and service page

    Who gives the warranty, where the service centres are, and what to do with the card. It removes the buyer's biggest fear.

  4. A contractor price request page

    A form for sites and workshops with fields for quantity, model and the delivery address. It brings bulk buyers to you instead of the counter dealer.

How the result is measured

  • Purchases
  • Conversion rate
  • Return rate
  • Quotation requests
  • Orders won
  • Authenticity queries

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.

  • Model list with the maker's specifications and manual
  • Warranty terms and the list of service centres
  • Photographs of the box contents and serial label
  • Return reasons and any that mention authenticity
  • Contractor customers you already sell to and what they buy

Selling in India and abroad

Selling power tools 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. Voltage and plug type

    A mains-powered tool is made for a voltage and frequency. A tool for the Indian supply may not run, or may run unsafely, elsewhere. Overseas pages should state the rating and the plug, and you should not sell where the tool does not suit.

  2. Batteries in transit

    Lithium batteries carry shipping restrictions that differ by carrier and country. Check with your carrier before listing cordless tools for overseas delivery.

  3. Warranty across borders

    A maker's warranty may cover only the country of sale. A foreign buyer will ask who repairs it, and the page needs an answer.

FAQ

Questions about selling power tools online.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should I sell a drill with or without the battery?
Offer both and name them clearly. Kits suit first-time buyers, bare tools suit those who already own the platform. Mixing them in one listing is where most bad reviews begin.
How do I show a power tool is original?
Show the serial label, the maker's box and the GST invoice, and say who gives the warranty. Authorised dealers can say so on the page. Do not claim authorisation you cannot show.
Do buyers care about wattage or brand?
Brand first, then what the tool does. Wattage only helps when two tools of the same brand are being compared. Say what the number means in use, for example the material it drills.
Can I take bulk orders for power tools through my website?
Yes, through a quotation form. The buyer wants a rate for a quantity, a delivery date and a warranty promise. A price on the page does not give any of those.
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.
