Ironing services · WhatsApp marketing

Run pickups, counts and rates from the number residents already message.

WhatsApp marketing for an ironing service is the use of one business number to take pickup requests, confirm counts and share rates with residents. GullySales works on the profile, the message templates and the ground rules that keep the chat useful and welcome.

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 ironing services

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

  • “Residents already message the boy”

    Pickup requests arrive on a personal phone mixed with family messages. When the boy leaves, so does the history, and the shop loses the record of who asked for what.

  • “The count message is the best sales tool”

    A list of garments sent at collection and again at delivery builds trust and ends disputes. It is also read every time, which a flyer never is.

  • “Broadcast to the wrong people backfires”

    A resident added to a list without asking may block the number, and a blocked business number loses reach. Messages go only to people who have asked for them or are existing customers, within the platform's rules.

  • “A catalogue answers the rate question once”

    Rates by garment, the pickup times and the service area, placed in the business catalogue, save the same question from being answered fifty times.

What we do

What we deliver for ironing services.

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

    The WhatsApp Business profile set up with the shop's name, hours, area and a catalogue of garments and rates.

    Result: A resident opens the chat and sees a real business.

  2. Count and return templates

    Message templates for the collection count and the delivery confirmation, written to be read at a glance.

    Result: Every bundle carries a count the resident can see.

  3. Quick replies for common requests

    Saved replies for rates, pickup times, saree booking and uniform pressing.

    Result: The same question gets the same clear answer.

  4. Rules for who is messaged and when

    A short code for the shop: who may be messaged, what for and how to stop, so the number stays in good standing.

    Result: The shop knows what to send and what to leave alone.

  5. A click-to-chat link for the listing, posters and cards

    A link and a QR code that open the chat from the Maps listing, a gate poster and the collection card.

    Result: A resident can start a chat from anywhere the shop appears.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we message all the flats in a building?
Only residents who have agreed or who already use the service. Adding people without asking risks complaints and blocks. Check the platform's current rules before any broadcast, and keep them rare and useful.
Should we use the business app or an automated service?
Start with the business app and its quick replies. Move to an automated service only if enquiries outgrow what one person can answer, and check what the service charges before agreeing.
Who owns the number?
It should belong to the shop, registered in the owner's control. If the number sits with a delivery boy, it leaves when the boy does, and so does the customer history.
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.
