Bars, pubs and microbreweries · Lead generation

Bring in the group organisers who decide where ten people sit on Friday.

Lead generation for a bar, pub or microbrewery means finding the people who book the venue: office coordinators, friend-group organisers and party hosts. GullySales works on the room, the food, the events and the booking route, and leaves drinks and offers out of the copy because advertising rules on alcohol differ by state.

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

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For bars, pubs and microbreweries

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

  • “One organiser brings the whole table”

    The person who messages for a table of ten has already decided for nine others. A lead from that person is worth more than a walk-in, so the reply has to be prompt and specific.

  • “Offices plan around a birthday or a farewell”

    A coordinator wants a seating plan, a food option for the vegetarians and a time the kitchen is open. Venues that publish these details are the ones that get the call.

  • “Event nights create their own enquiries”

    A match screening or a live set draws people who have never visited. Announce it with a booking link, so interest becomes a reserved table and not a vague plan.

  • “Walk-ins do not leave a number”

    A guest who enjoys the evening and leaves has told you nothing. A booking or event sign-up with consent is the only way to invite that guest back.

What we do

What we deliver for bars, pubs and microbreweries.

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

  1. Group booking enquiry form

    A short form asking date, group size, occasion, food needs and a phone number.

    Result: Every group enquiry reaches the team with the detail needed to reply.

  2. Corporate and party enquiry page

    A page for offices and hosts covering seating, food, music policy, timings and how to reserve.

    Result: Coordinators get what they need without a call.

  3. Event night pages

    A page for each recurring event with the time, the entry rule and a booking button.

    Result: An event can be shared and booked from one link.

  4. Source labels on every enquiry

    Google, Instagram, WhatsApp and referral enquiries tagged when they arrive.

    Result: You see which channel produces tables.

  5. Weekday group outreach

    A list of nearby offices, clubs and societies with the person who arranges meetings, contacted with an invitation to book.

    Result: Weekday seats are offered to named coordinators.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

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

How it works

How the lead generation work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Understand your capacity

    We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we advertise offers on drinks to get leads?
No. Advertising alcohol is restricted in India and the rules differ by state, so check with your own adviser. We write about the room, the food, the music and the booking, not drinks or drinking offers.
How do we handle a booking for a group that includes people under the legal age?
Follow the entry policy and licence conditions that apply in your state, and state the policy plainly on the booking page. If a group mixes ages, tell the organiser your rule before they pay.
Do you promise a number of bookings?
No. Bookings depend on location, the room, the season and the competition. GullySales makes the venue easy to find and book, and records where each enquiry comes from.
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.
