Cricket academies · Lead generation
Fill the batches with parents who have already watched a child play.
Lead generation for a cricket academy is the steady supply of parents who ask about a batch for a particular child, not a spike of calls when schools close. GullySales works on where those parents first meet the academy and on how each enquiry is captured and answered.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What lead generation means
Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For cricket academies
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The enquiry is about one child, not the academy”
A parent asks about a specific boy or girl of a specific age, with a school timetable and tuition already fixed. A lead that records age, school hours and the batch asked about can be matched to a seat. A bare phone number cannot.
“The summer rush hides the rest of the year”
April and May flood the coach's phone, and the academy treats that as proof that marketing works. Then the term starts, the nets thin out and nothing has been built for the months when no school is closed.
“Referrals are the biggest source and the least recorded”
A sports teacher mentions the academy, a neighbour shows a video in a society group, a physiotherapist names it. Nobody writes down who said what, so the academy cannot tell which of those relationships is worth feeding.
“A paid click for a camp lands on a phone nobody answers”
Spending on a camp advert while the coach is mid-session pays for a call that rings out. The parent then dials the next academy on the list. Reply capacity has to exist before the budget does.
What we do
What we deliver for cricket academies.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A source recorded against every enquiry
Each call, message and form is tagged with where the parent first heard of you: school, society group, search, a friend, a banner at the ground.
Result: You can say which source brought the families who enrolled.
An enquiry sheet built around the child
Age, school, preferred days and the batch asked about, captured the first time the parent writes or calls.
Result: Every lead can be matched to a seat on the register.
A reply routine for the hours the coach is on the ground
Who answers, from which number, and what the first message says when the coach cannot pick up.
Result: No enquiry sits unanswered through a net session.
A school and society outreach list
Named sports teachers, resident welfare associations and parent groups, each with a proposal for a trial day.
Result: You know who has been approached and who has not.
A baseline before any spend
Enquiries, trials and enrolments by source for the period before work begins, kept as the comparison point.
Result: Later reports compare against your own starting position.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries generated
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries by source
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
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
How the lead generation work runs
- 1
Understand your capacity
We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.
- 2
Audit current sources
We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.
- 3
Strategise the channel mix
Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.
- 4
Implement capture and follow-up
Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.
- 5
Measure and optimise
We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.
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.
