Roofing contractors · Email marketing

Write to every shed you have roofed before the rains arrive again.

Email and WhatsApp marketing for a roofing contractor is a short message to past customers, builders and architects at the right point in the roofing year. GullySales builds the list, writes the messages and records consent before the first one goes out.

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

What email marketing means

Email marketing is sending planned messages to a list of past and prospective customers who have agreed to hear from you. It suits offers, updates and staying in touch with someone who is not ready to buy yet. GullySales writes and schedules these emails and tracks who opens, clicks and enquires.

For roofing contractors

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

  • “Past owners are the cheapest enquiry you will get”

    A factory you roofed three years ago needs a check, an extension or a new sheet at some point. A message before the rains puts you first.

  • “Builders need updates, not offers”

    A short note on a finished project, a new system or a safety record keeps your name with the people who award the next roof.

  • “Consent comes before the first message”

    Anyone messaged must have agreed. Record when and how, and stop the moment an owner asks.

What we do

What we deliver for roofing contractors.

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

  1. A clean list of past customers

    Every completed job in one sheet with the site, roof type, date, contact and consent recorded.

    Result: You know who to write to and for what roof.

  2. A pre-monsoon inspection message

    A short email and WhatsApp message offering a check of the roof, sent before the rains.

    Result: Past owners book the repair before the leak.

  3. A builder and architect note

    A project update with photographs and a specification line, sent after a finished site.

    Result: Your name stays with the people who specify.

  4. A winter shed building message

    A note to owners planning expansions, covering structure, roofing and schedule.

    Result: Enquiries arrive as the building season opens.

  5. Consent and stop handling

    A form, a record of when each person agreed and a simple way to unsubscribe from both channels.

    Result: Every message goes to someone who said yes.

  6. A report on replies and jobs

    Replies, site visits and jobs from each message, set against the baseline.

    Result: You can see which message earned work.

How the result is measured

  • Open rate
  • Click rate
  • Enquiries from email

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What must be in place first

What a roofing company needs in place before it writes to a past owner.

A list with consent
Names, sites and the date each owner agreed to hear from you. Without it, do not send.
A reason to write
Before the rains, after a repair, or when a new system arrives. A message with no reason is deleted.
One photograph and one line
A picture of a similar roof and one line on what you will check. Long messages do not get read.
A direct number
Put a number that is answered, with WhatsApp enabled. Owners reply when it takes a single tap.
A record of replies
Log each reply against the customer and the roof, so the next message knows what was said.
A way to stop
A line telling the reader how to stop messages, honoured the same day.

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 email marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your list

    We review who is on the list, how they got there, and how long it has been since they last heard from you.

  2. 2

    Audit past sends

    We check open and click rates from past emails to see what has and has not worked.

  3. 3

    Segment and plan

    The list is split into meaningful groups and a sending calendar is agreed.

  4. 4

    Implement content and automation

    Emails are written, scheduled and, where useful, set to trigger automatically based on behaviour.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track performance and adjust subject lines, timing and content based on what the list responds to.

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.

How often should we write to customers?
Rarely and for a reason: before the rains, after a project and when a new roof system arrives. Messages with nothing to say train owners to ignore you.
Is WhatsApp better than email for this trade?
For homeowners and small factories, yes, since the owner reads WhatsApp. Email suits architects, builders and larger plants. Keep both in one list and record which each person prefers.
What should a pre-monsoon message say?
Offer an inspection of the roof you built, list what you will check, and give a direct number. Keep it short and include a photograph of a similar site.
What do we need before sending messages?
A list of customers who have agreed to hear from you, an easy way to stop, and a record of when consent was given. Do not add names from business cards without asking.
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.
