Put the dental clinic floor on the page for the BDS family.
A Class 12 student in Mysuru, whose mother runs a small dental clinic, has a NEET score that will not reach a medical seat. The mother says dentistry is a good profession, and the clinic could pass to the student one day. They ask a single question of every college they call: how many patients will a student actually treat before graduating, and does the college have its own dental chair for each student?
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
In one paragraph
A dental college teaches BDS and MDS and runs a dental hospital where students treat patients. Dental college marketing reaches NEET-qualified students and their parents, and PG aspirants comparing departments. Admissions sales turns questions about fees, clinical hours and patient load into visits, then seats. GullySales prepares the clinical floor pages. Alongside them go one page for each MDS department and a fee and recognition fact sheet for the front desk.
A family with a dentist in it knows the difference between observing a procedure and doing one. A brochure that shows only a lecture hall leaves their question unanswered, which is how many chairs a student gets and how many patients walk in.

How buyers decide
How dental colleges are chosen.
Admission is through NEET-based counselling or management and NRI quota seats, under rules that differ by state and change. An applicant whose score falls short of a medical seat may take dentistry as a considered second choice, on a relative's advice. Parents who are dentists ask technical questions about equipment, materials and faculty.
Families compare fees, location, the dental hospital's patient flow and the internship stipend. They ask what happens in the clinical years: whether students get their own unit, how many patients each is expected to treat and how cases are supervised. Families put these questions to current students and house surgeons.
Postgraduate applicants form a separate audience. A BDS graduate looking at an MDS seat compares departments, the number of seats, the faculty's publications and the case mix in the hospital. They respond to different pages from the BDS family.
The problem
What usually goes wrong for dental colleges.
What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.
“Families cannot see our clinical floor”
The website shows the building and the lecture hall, not the chairs, the sterilisation room or the patients being treated.
“Fee details vary between callers”
Different people quote different totals, so the family is unsure which is correct.
“Our MDS departments are described in one paragraph”
Postgraduate applicants cannot compare specialities, seats or faculty.
“Dentist-parent enquiries are technical”
The front desk cannot answer questions about equipment and materials and the call ends without a follow-up.
“Patient flow is a worry for families”
They ask how many patients come through the clinics, and we have no honest way to explain our own case mix.
“Referrals from local dentists are not recorded”
Local dentists send students to us but we do not know who, so we cannot thank or keep in touch.
What we do
What we do for dental colleges.
Everything included for dental colleges.
A clinical floor tour
Photographs and films of the chairs, the sterilisation area, the department clinics and the patient registration, shot with consent and on approved days.
A department page for each MDS speciality
Pages for each postgraduate department listing seats, faculty and the clinical work done, supplied by the department head.
A fee and recognition fact sheet
A dated page with the fee heads, payment schedule and recognition status, confirmed by the management before publication.
A dentist and alumni referral register
A simple list of the dentists and alumni who recommend the college, with a thank-you routine and an invitation to events.
A technical enquiry note for the front desk
A short sheet of answers on equipment, materials and clinical requirements, with the name of the person to forward harder questions to.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries by source, BDS and MDS separately
- Dentist and alumni referrals recorded
- Clinical floor visits against enquiries
- Admissions confirmed against visits
- MDS enquiries by speciality
- Fee questions asked by phone that the fact sheet already answers
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Every service, written for dental colleges
Each has its own page: what it involves for dental colleges, what you get, and what it is measured on.
- Lead generationDraw BDS and MDS enquiries from families who have already asked about the chairs.
- SEOMake the college the page a BDS family finds when they search for the clinical floor.
- Local SEOLet a family near the campus find the dental hospital and the college on the map.

- Content marketingWrite the guides a BDS parent would otherwise ask the front desk, in the college's own words.
- Buyer personasKnow the dentist-parent, the NEET student and the MDS applicant as three different callers.
- CRMKeep one record for every family, from first call to the day the seat is confirmed.
- Follow-up systemsMake sure the family who visited the clinical floor hears from the college again.
- WhatsApp marketingAnswer the parent's late-evening WhatsApp question with the same facts the front desk gives.
- Digital marketingPlan search, social, chat and email as one admissions effort with one record.
- WebsiteBuild a college website that shows the chairs, the departments and the dated fees.

Priority campaigns
Campaigns for what dental colleges most want to sell.
Each one planned around when your buyers decide, and measured against the baseline.
Counselling-season search campaign
Ads and a landing page for BDS and MDS searches, pointing to the clinical tour and the fact sheet.
Open day on the clinical floor
A day for students and parents to see the clinics, meet faculty and talk to house surgeons, with a registration list and a follow-up call.
Alumni dentist series
Short posts and films from graduates about their training, shared with their consent and saying nothing about their own practice.
Community oral health camps
Camps run by the college for schools and neighbourhoods, announced locally and recorded in a way that keeps patient details private.
Beyond search
Where we reach buyers of dental colleges, beyond Google.
Search matters, but it is rarely the only way this industry's buyers find a supplier.
Practising dentists and dental associations
A dentist's own child may be the applicant, and colleagues ask the same dentist for advice. Practising dentists in your region are listed, with a note and an invitation to the clinical floor.
NEET coaching centres and school counsellors
A coaching teacher tells a student with a score just short of a medical seat what the next options are. A note on BDS at your college is prepared for those teachers.
Alumni and house surgeons
A house surgeon is the person a nervous BDS family believes. A request for stories and introductions is drafted for house surgeons and alumni, with consent noted.
Dental supply dealers and clinic networks
A dental supply dealer walks into many clinics and is asked by dentists about colleges. A short information sheet is prepared for dealers to hand out if they choose.
Local schools and communities
A school oral-health talk or camp is how a Class 12 family first sees the college in action. Talk outlines and camp notices are prepared for nearby schools.

Not for

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.

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

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.
