Hotel booking agencies · WhatsApp marketing

Turn the 6 pm chat into a clear request your team can quote.

WhatsApp marketing for a hotel booking agency means using the app where company desks and planners already write, to collect requests, send quotes and keep accounts informed. Your enquiries probably begin there. GullySales sets up the business profile, reply structure and permissioned broadcasts around that habit.

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 hotel booking agencies

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

  • “The request arrives in pieces”

    Dates come in one message, headcount in another and the budget not at all. A reply that asks for the three facts in a fixed order turns a scattered chat into something a coordinator can quote.

  • “A quote sent as a screenshot gets lost”

    A rate pasted into a chat is hard to find later and easy to forward wrongly. A short document with validity and hold terms, sent through the chat, is clearer for both sides.

  • “Broadcasts need permission”

    Sending offers to people who never asked is a sure way to be blocked or ignored. Message only buyers who agreed to hear from you, and check the platform's current rules before any bulk sending.

  • “The same number serves everyone”

    If one personal phone handles every account, a coordinator's leave stops replies. A business number with shared access keeps the account moving when a person is away.

What we do

What we deliver for hotel booking agencies.

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

    Name, description, hours and catalogue-style listing of the stays you arrange, with a link to the enquiry form.

    Result: A new buyer sees what you do before writing.

  2. A first-reply script

    A standard answer asking for dates, headcount and budget, and a holding line for incomplete requests.

    Result: Every chat starts with the same three facts.

  3. Quote message format

    A fixed layout with the hotel, dates, rooms, validity and hold terms, sent with the written quote.

    Result: Quotes read the same and can be found later.

  4. Permissioned updates for accounts

    A short opt-in and a list of accounts who agreed to hear about new hotels or city availability.

    Result: Updates reach buyers who asked for them.

  5. Shared access and handover rules

    Who answers, who covers during leave and where chats are logged into the CRM.

    Result: No account is stranded when one person is away.

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

How the whatsapp marketing 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 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.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. 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.

Tell us what you need
Is it allowed to message our old customers?
Only those who agreed to hear from you, and within the platform's current rules, which you should check. We help you collect permission and keep a record of it.
Can we use WhatsApp for group rate negotiations?
Yes for the conversation, but record the agreed rate and terms in a written quote. A chat alone is hard to rely on if the booking is questioned later.
Should we use automation?
For the first reply and reminders, yes. For a negotiation or a complaint, a person should answer. We set the point where the automated reply hands over to a coordinator.
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.
