Alteration shops · Digital marketing
Use the few online channels that bring a tailor's customer through the door.
Digital marketing for an alteration shop is the choice of which online channels deserve the master's attention and which do not. GullySales works on picking the few that bring garments in, setting them up and leaving the rest alone.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

For alteration shops
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Not every channel is worth the effort”
A small shop cannot run a website, three social pages, ads and email. The map listing and WhatsApp bring the nearby customer. Everything else is added only when the first two are working and the slot book has room.
“Seasons are the budget calendar”
Spending is wasted in a week the shop is full and valuable in the fortnight after the rush. A plan that follows weddings, festivals and school reopening puts attention where the idle hours are. Each added channel is another place to answer messages.
“Online and counter must say the same thing”
A listing that promises pickup and a counter that has never heard of it irritates the customer. The price guide, the hours and the job list should read the same online, on the board and on WhatsApp.
“Measure by enquiries, not likes”
A post with praise and no messages did nothing for the shop. The numbers that matter are the calls, the WhatsApp chats and the garments that came in after them. Count those three and the picture is plain, without any report.
What we do
What we deliver for alteration shops.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A channel choice
A short written decision on which channels the shop uses and which it leaves out, with reasons.
Result: A plain list of channels in use.
A seasonal plan
A calendar of wedding, festival and school weeks with what to do in each.
Result: A plan the shop can follow.
Consistent details everywhere
The shop's name, address, hours, jobs and prices matched across the listing, WhatsApp, the board and any website.
Result: One set of details in every place.
Simple ads for the quiet weeks
Small local ads placed only when the slot book has room, aimed at the nearby streets.
Result: An ad plan tied to the shop's own spare capacity.
A tracking sheet
A sheet recording calls, chats and garments from each channel.
Result: A record showing where work came from.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries across channels
- Cost per enquiry overall
- Channel mix by contribution
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.

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.
