Quick-service restaurants · Digital marketing
Put the outlet in front of hungry people nearby, on the screens they check.
Digital marketing for a quick-service restaurant is the combined work of listings, search, social posts, ads and chat that gets nearby people to the counter and franchise buyers to the brand. GullySales works on the plan that joins them and sets where the budget goes.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

For quick-service restaurants
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Each channel is run by someone different”
One person handles the page, another the app listing, a third the franchise ads. No one sees that the same customer is reached three times and a nearby one not at all.
“Spend follows habit, not the lunch map”
Ads go to the whole city while the sale happens within walking range. A plan built around the streets, towers and campuses next to each outlet spends where the foot traffic is.
“The counter and the screen are not connected”
A campaign brings a customer to the counter and the staff do not know about the offer. The customer asks, the cashier shrugs, and the promotion becomes a complaint.
“Franchise marketing and diner marketing compete for budget”
Money for new outlets and money for existing ones are often argued over. Splitting them into two plans, each with its own measure, keeps the argument from stalling both.
What we do
What we deliver for quick-service restaurants.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A channel plan across listings, search, social and chat
One document showing what each channel is for, who runs it and how they hand over to each other.
Result: Every channel has a purpose and an owner.
A local budget split
A split of spend by outlet and by buyer type, set by the owner, aimed at the streets around each counter.
Result: Spend is allocated by outlet, not by whole-city guess.
Counter briefing for every campaign
A one-page note for cashiers and managers on each offer, so the counter matches the screen.
Result: Staff know what the customer saw.
Separate plans for diners and franchise buyers
Two plans with their own messages, channels and measures.
Result: The franchise effort has its own plan.
A measure sheet by outlet
Orders, calls, direction requests and enquiries recorded by outlet, so you can compare outlets.
Result: You can see which outlet each effort reached.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries across channels
- Cost per enquiry overall
- Channel mix by contribution
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

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.
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.
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.
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.
