Preschools · Education

Answer every parent who asks about nursery and playgroup seats.

A mother opens WhatsApp at ten at night, after the child has finally slept, and sends the same message to four preschools: fees, timings, is there a van. Two reply in the morning with a brochure PDF. One calls at lunch and asks the child's age. That third school gets the visit, because a person spoke to the parent.

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

A prospective student speaks with a university admissions adviser

In one paragraph

A preschool is a school for children of about two to six years: playgroup, nursery, LKG and UKG. Preschool marketing gets parents to visit before they pick a school, and preschool sales turns each visit into an admission form and a first fee. GullySales prepares the class pages, the Google listing and the post-tour follow-up for your centre.

Your parents decide close to home and in a hurry, within a few weeks of the season opening. They trust what they can see: the classroom, the play area, the teacher who greets them. Your marketing has to get them through the gate once, and your follow-up has to make the second conversation easy.

How buyers decide

How preschools are chosen.

Parents start with the neighbourhood. They search for preschools near a locality, look at the Google listing photos and reviews, then ask the parents at their apartment gate or in the society WhatsApp group. Distance, safety, the transport arrangement and how the teachers treat a crying child matter far more than the name of a curriculum.

The visit carries the weight. A parent who sees a clean washroom, a calm classroom and a principal who remembers the child's name has something to set against a lower fee quoted elsewhere. When nobody rings a parent back, the school learns of it only when a seat stays empty.

The problem

What usually goes wrong for preschools.

What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.

  • “Enquiries arrive on five channels and nobody owns them”

    The phone, the website form, a walk-in, an Instagram message and a society group all bring a parent, and the details end up on a notebook page or in someone's phone.

  • “Parents visit once and we never hear from them again”

    After the tour the parent says they will think about it. No one rings back, and by the time we do, the seat has gone to the school down the road.

  • “Our Google listing shows old photos and two unanswered reviews”

    A parent checking us at night sees a blurred gate photo and a complaint about the van with no reply, so they move to the next result.

  • “We rely on the same banners every year and cannot say which one worked”

    Pamphlets, auto ads and a hoarding near the main road all run together, and the admission count does not tell us which of them paid for itself.

  • “Admissions peak in a few weeks and the rest of the year is quiet”

    The office is overwhelmed in the season and idle after it, so mid-year enquiries from families who just moved in are handled slowly or lost.

  • “Parents compare us with the big franchise chain on trust, not fees”

    A family sees a familiar chain name and assumes it is safer. We have no clear way to show our own staff, ratios and safety routine.

What we do

What we do for preschools.

Everything included for preschools.

  1. A page for each class and age group

    Playgroup, nursery, LKG and UKG each get a page with the age cut-off in plain words, a typical day, and the fee structure your office is happy to share.

  2. A Google listing a parent trusts at night

    Current classroom and play area photos, working hours, a visit-booking link and a reply to every review, written the way a principal would answer a parent.

  3. One enquiry sheet for every channel

    Calls, forms, walk-ins and WhatsApp messages go into one record with the child's age, the locality and the date of the visit.

  4. A visit-day routine

    A short script for greeting the parent, a route through the school, what to show and what to hand over, and a note to log after the parent leaves.

  5. A follow-up sequence after the tour

    A WhatsApp thank-you, a reminder when the form is incomplete, and a short call from the principal for families still undecided.

  6. A referral card for current parents

    A simple way for happy parents to pass your name on, with a note thanking them in the way your school prefers.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries by channel and by locality
  • Visits booked from enquiries
  • Admission forms filled after a visit
  • Seats confirmed against seats available
  • Families who say who referred them
  • Reviews received and replied to

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Priority campaigns

Campaigns for what preschools most want to sell.

Each one planned around when your buyers decide, and measured against the baseline.

  • Admissions open campaign

    Google search ads and a landing page for the locality, with a visit-booking form and a WhatsApp number that a person actually answers.

  • Open house and annual day invitations

    Invitations through your parent groups and a simple event page, so families who are only curious can step in and see a class at work.

  • Society and apartment outreach

    A short visit, a stand or a talk at residents' welfare associations near the school, with a one-page leaflet that carries a booking link.

  • Mid-year new arrivals

    A page and a message for families moving into the area after the main season, who need a seat for a child quickly.

Beyond search

Where we reach buyers of preschools, beyond Google.

Search matters, but it is rarely the only way this industry's buyers find a supplier.

  • Parents within a short ride of the school

    A school draws most children from a few lanes and apartment blocks. Location pages and listing work follow those localities, not the whole city.

  • Apartment and gated community groups

    The society WhatsApp group is where a new mother asks which preschool to pick. A short introduction, with photos and a visit link, is prepared for the group admin to share.

  • Paediatricians and local clinics

    Parents of toddlers sit in paediatric waiting rooms. A list of nearby clinics and a short leaflet is prepared for the doctor's office to keep, if the doctor agrees.

  • Employers with young parents nearby

    Offices and IT campuses within a short drive have parents who want a preschool near work. The introduction goes to the HR or admin team that handles employee notices.

Who it is for

This is written for these preschools.

  • Standalone neighbourhood preschools run by a single owner
  • Franchise preschools running under a chain's name
  • Preschools attached to a primary or high school
  • Play schools inside apartment complexes and gated communities
  • Preschools with an extended day or day care add-on
  • Activity-based and play-way preschools
  • Preschools with their own transport vans
  • Preschools run by a trust or a charitable society

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

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.

How the work runs for preschools

  1. 1

    Look at the season

    Last year's admission register shows which localities sent children, how many visits became forms, and which families dropped out.

  2. 2

    Fix the front desk

    One enquiry sheet, one script for the first call and a rule for who rings back whom.

  3. 3

    Build the pages and the listing

    A page for each class, a location page for each locality you draw from, and a Google listing a parent can trust.

  4. 4

    Run the admission push

    Search ads, a booking page, and the follow-up sequence, set against the dates your own admission calendar uses.

  5. 5

    Read what brought the admissions

    Each enrolment is traced to the form, call or neighbour that brought the family, so the next season's pamphlets and ads follow it.

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

    The conversation on its own

    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.

FAQ

Questions preschools ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can you help a single-branch preschool, or only chains?
Yes. A single-branch school has one listing, one front desk and one principal, so the work is prepared around exactly those. A franchise centre should first check what its chain allows in local advertising.
Can we put children's photos in our marketing?
Only with written consent from the parent for that specific use. Showing activities and spaces rather than faces avoids the question. Check the consent wording with your management or a legal adviser.
What can we say about our curriculum or method?
Describe what happens in the classroom in plain words and keep claims about learning outcomes modest. Rules for preschools differ by state and change, so check with your education department or association before printing any approval or recognition claim.
Do you run the admission calls for us?
We can set up the first-call script and a follow-up routine your staff uses, and where it suits you we can support the calling. Your principal still meets the parent.
How do we handle parents who compare us with a famous chain?
By showing your own staff, ratios, safety routine and daily schedule on the page and on the visit. A parent who sees it for themselves is easier to convince than one who only read a brand name.
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?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and we tell you which applies to you after we have spoken. 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?
To start, last month's enquiries in any format and time with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM.
