Tourism experience providers · WhatsApp marketing

Turn the breakfast message into a confirmed seat before the guest picks another plan.

WhatsApp marketing for an experience provider means using the app guests already open to answer, confirm and remind. GullySales works on the business profile, the saved replies and the booking flow around it.

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 tourism experience providers

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

  • “WhatsApp is where the booking happens”

    A visitor taps a button on your listing and a chat opens. How quickly that chat gets a clear reply, with seats, price and pin, decides whether it ends as a booking.

  • “The host is mid-session when messages arrive”

    Hands in clay or on a paddle, nobody can type a careful answer. Saved replies and an away message that states when you will respond keep the guest from walking away.

  • “Broadcasts need care”

    Messaging past guests about a new session can be welcome or intrusive. Send only to people who agreed, keep it relevant and check the platform's current rules before starting.

  • “A catalogue shows what you sell”

    The business profile can list each experience with price and photo. A visitor who sees the options before typing asks better questions.

What we do

What we deliver for tourism experience providers.

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

  1. A business profile setup

    Name, description, hours, address and booking link filled in on the WhatsApp Business profile.

    Result: A guest opening the chat sees a real business.

  2. A catalogue of experiences

    Each activity listed with a photo, price note, duration and group size.

    Result: Guests choose before they message.

  3. Saved replies

    Ready answers for price, timing, meeting point, children, rain and cancellation.

    Result: Common questions get the same correct reply.

  4. A booking confirmation message

    A message with date, seats, pin, payment note and a contact for the day.

    Result: The guest has everything in one place.

  5. A permission-based broadcast list

    A list of guests who agreed to hear about new sessions, with a note of what they came for.

    Result: You message only people who asked to hear from you.

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.

Is the business app enough?
For a small host, yes to begin. The business app has labels, saved replies and a catalogue, and a larger tool can come later.
Can we send offers to everyone in our contacts?
No. Message only people who have agreed, and check the platform's current rules on business messaging.
Should the chat take payment?
That is your choice. We help you write the payment note clearly so guests know when and how to pay.
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.
