Electronic components distributors · Pay per click advertising
Pay for the click that has a part number and a build date behind it.
Paid search for an electronic components distributor puts your stock in front of a buyer who has just typed a part number or a brand. The clicks that matter are narrow and exact, and many of the others are students, datasheet readers and job seekers. GullySales builds campaigns around the parts you hold, blocks the rest, and logs every BOM and call that comes from them.
A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.

What pay per click advertising means
Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend daily against enquiries received.

For electronic components distributors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Datasheet searchers click all day”
Someone looking for a pinout or a circuit diagram clicks an advert for the same part and wants nothing from you. The click costs the same as a purchase head's.
“The advert promises a part that is out of stock”
A buyer clicks through, finds no stock, and phones the next counter. The advert should stop when the shelf is empty.
“Mouser and Digi-Key outbid you on the exact part”
On a common part number you are one of many. Bidding blindly against global distributors spends the budget on the searches you are least likely to win.
What we do
What we deliver for electronic components distributors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Campaigns built from parts you hold today
Search adverts for the part numbers and brand families in stock, switched off for a line when the shelf is empty.
Result: The advert only promises what the counter can supply.
A negative list from the first searches
Datasheet, pdf, pinout, circuit diagram, tutorial, course, jobs and project added from the search terms report, not guessed once.
Result: The budget goes to buyers, not readers.
A separate campaign for students and makers
Module and kit searches kept apart, with their own budget and a landing page that lists the project parts, so they do not drain the production campaign.
Result: You see what each kind of buyer costs.
Pages matched to the part searched
Each advert sent to the page for that part or brand, showing stock, minimum order and a BOM or WhatsApp button, not to the home page.
Result: The click lands on an answer.
Call and WhatsApp tracking
A tracked number and a tagged WhatsApp link on the campaign, with each contact written into the enquiry log with the part searched.
Result: You can trace a BOM back to the search that brought it.
Hours that match the counter
Adverts scheduled to when a person answers, with a decision about evenings if somebody picks up WhatsApp then.
Result: You stop paying for clicks that find a closed counter.
How the result is measured
- Cost per click
- Cost per enquiry
- Enquiries from paid search
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Searches to bid on and block
The searches worth paying for in components, and the ones that only look like buyers.
- Exact part numbers you hold today
- Bid, only on parts in stock, and send each click to that part's page. Pause the advert when the shelf is empty. Expect global distributors on common parts, so watch which parts bring a BOM.
- Brand and family plus your city
- Bid on searches such as a brand's microcontroller family with the city or market. They carry local intent, and the page can say you are an authorised or independent source.
- Datasheet, pdf, pinout and circuit diagram
- Block. These searchers want free information. Add each word as a negative and check the search terms report for new ones, such as tutorial, project and code.
- Jobs, courses and repair training
- Block. Add job, vacancy, course, training, internship and salary as negatives, so a student or job seeker does not spend the budget meant for a purchase head.
- Where the click lands
- Send a part search to the part page, a brand search to the brand page and a BOM or bulk search to the BOM page. Never send a part-number click to the home page.
- Counting a real enquiry
- Count a BOM upload from a company, a call about a stocked part, or a WhatsApp with a part and quantity. Log the part and mark which enquiries became orders.
Who it is for

Not for

- 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.
First
Free audit call
90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
After the call
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.
Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.
After the baseline
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
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.
