Medical tourism facilitators · WhatsApp marketing

Make the chat where reports arrive a clear, trusted and well-kept route to your desk.

WhatsApp marketing for a medical tourism facilitator is the use of the chat where patients and agents already send scans, ask about cost and wait for answers. GullySales works on the business profile, the first replies, the language set and the record behind each chat.

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

What WhatsApp marketing means

WhatsApp marketing is sending updates, offers and reminders to customers on the app most Indian buyers already check daily. GullySales sets up business WhatsApp, writes the message templates and keeps the list consented and current.

For medical tourism facilitators

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “WhatsApp is the first and main route”

    A patient abroad opens WhatsApp, not a contact form, and sends scans straight away. A reply that thanks them, asks for the missing reports and names the person handling the case is the start of trust.

  • “A personal number looks like a risk”

    Patients warned about fraud look for a business profile with a name, address and description. A staff member's private number, with no profile, makes a legitimate facilitator look like a chance contact.

  • “Reports in a chat are health information”

    Scans and notes arrive in a thread that several people may read. Decide who has access, move the key facts to the patient record and avoid forwarding files to groups. Check data rules for the patient's country.

  • “One chat in the wrong language loses the family”

    A reply in English to a patient writing in Arabic or French is read as 'not for me'. A language set with a native-speaking reviewer keeps the first reply in the patient's own language.

What we do

What we deliver for medical tourism facilitators.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. A business profile and catalogue

    Business name, address, description and the treatments you coordinate, as the WhatsApp Business tools allow.

    Result: A cautious patient can check who is writing.

  2. First-reply and quick-reply set in each language

    Written replies for greeting, report request, hospital choice, visa step and cost breakdown.

    Result: Each common question has an agreed, reviewed answer.

  3. Chat-to-record routine

    A same-day note of country, treatment, reports received and next step in your CRM.

    Result: No fact lives only in a chat.

  4. Agent broadcast list with consent

    A list of agents who agreed to receive updates, with a record of consent and an opt-out.

    Result: You message only people who said yes.

  5. Click-to-chat entry points

    Links from each landing page, post and ad that open a chat already tagged with its source.

    Result: Each chat shows which page or post it came from.

How the result is measured

  • Messages delivered
  • Reply rate
  • Enquiries from WhatsApp

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.

  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 whatsapp marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand current WhatsApp use

    We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.

  2. 2

    Audit common questions

    We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.

  3. 3

    Set up automation and templates

    An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

  4. 4

    Connect to the CRM

    Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track response time and conversion, refining automated responses based on what customers actually ask.

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.

Your brief

Tell us what you need, and we will read it before we call.

Eight short steps about your business, what you want and who decides. Most questions are a tap, and you can skip any you would rather answer on the call.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we send bulk messages to past patients?
Only to people who agreed to receive them, and subject to the platform's current rules. Past patients should be asked once, in their language, and a no respected.
Do we need the WhatsApp Business API?
Not at the start. The Business app covers a small team. Consider the API when several people answer and you need a shared inbox. Check the platform's current rules and pricing.
Can a chatbot answer patients?
A bot can acknowledge and collect reports. A person should answer anything about cost, treatment or travel. A bot that gives wrong health information damages trust and may breach local rules.
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 the trade, the channel and what is already in place. 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 this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
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.
