Pet boarding services · WhatsApp marketing

Make the WhatsApp thread the place where the owner asks, books and watches the stay.

WhatsApp marketing for a pet boarding business is using the app owners already live in to answer enquiries, confirm bookings and send updates from the kennel. GullySales works on the business profile, the saved replies and the message flow, and on staying within the platform's current rules.

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 pet boarding services

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

  • “The thread is the whole relationship”

    Enquiry, vaccination card photo, payment of the advance, stay pictures and the pickup time all sit in one conversation. A tidy thread makes the place look as organised as its kennels.

  • “Updates build trust, not just comfort”

    A photograph of the dog eating or playing sent during the stay tells the owner you are paying attention. It also produces the best material for a review request afterwards.

  • “Broadcasting needs care”

    A message to every past owner before Diwali is useful when the owners agreed to hear from you. Use the platform's tools properly and check the platform's current rules on messaging customers.

  • “A personal number does not scale”

    When the owner's own phone is the business line, messages mix with family and staff changes. A business account with labels, a catalogue and saved replies keeps the work organised.

What we do

What we deliver for pet boarding services.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile set up properly

    Business name, description, hours, location and a catalogue of the stays and add-ons you offer.

    Result: An owner sees a business, not a stranger's number.

  2. Saved replies for the booking steps

    Ready messages for greeting, the video tour, the questions you need answered and the advance.

    Result: The same clear answer goes out at any hour.

  3. Labels for each stage

    Tags for new enquiry, visit planned, awaiting advance, confirmed and checked in.

    Result: You see at a glance where every owner stands.

  4. A consent-based list for holiday messages

    A record of owners who agreed to hear from you, with the message sent before peak dates.

    Result: Past guests are reached with their agreement.

  5. A routine for stay updates

    A short guide for staff on what to send, when and how to record it.

    Result: Owners get consistent updates whoever is on shift.

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

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can I message all my past customers?
Only those who agreed to hear from you, and within the platform's current rules. Build the list at admission by asking, and keep a record.
Do I need the WhatsApp API?
Not for a small place. The Business app handles labels and saved replies. Consider the API when message volume and several staff make the app hard to manage.
Should I send pictures during the stay?
Yes, if you can do it reliably. Owners appreciate it, but a missed day worries them. Promise only what staff can keep up.
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.
