Chemical traders · Digital marketing

Choose the digital channels that deserve the owner's time, and drop the rest.

Digital marketing for a chemical trader is the plan that decides where buyers should find you: marketplaces, search, WhatsApp, a website and a few paid placements. GullySales reads your enquiries and orders to rank those channels and set up the ones that pay for themselves.

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 chemical traders

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

  • “A godown with fixed stock needs few channels”

    A trader with forty chemicals and one delivery area does not need a national campaign. The plan starts from where current orders originate and where the vehicles can reach. Channels that cannot be served from the godown are left out until stock and vehicles allow them.

  • “Paid search for chemicals needs tight keywords”

    Chemical names are short, shared across pharma, paint and laboratory buyers, and typed by students and the curious. Without exclusions and a clear landing page, the budget goes to clicks that never become an order.

  • “A marketplace listing is rented ground”

    A paid listing sits on someone else's platform. The plan records what the trader pays, counts the orders it brings and copies the buyer's details into the trader's own register. The listing is judged on orders, not on the number of calls it brings to the desk.

  • “Every channel ends at the phone”

    Whatever brought the buyer, the next step is a call or a chat. If nobody answers or notes the source, the plan cannot tell which channel brought the order, and money drifts to the loudest one.

What we do

What we deliver for chemical traders.

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

  1. A channel review from orders and enquiries

    A reading of the last year's enquiries and invoices to see which channels brought buyers who ordered and reordered.

    Result: The owner can see which channels led to repeat orders.

  2. A channel plan sized to owner time

    A short plan naming the channels to run, the person responsible for each and what is left alone for now.

    Result: Each chosen channel has a named person.

  3. Source tracking on every enquiry

    A field recording the channel on each enquiry and order, so the review can be repeated on real figures.

    Result: Orders can be counted by the channel that started them.

  4. A paid search test plan

    A small, bounded test with chemical-specific keywords, exclusions and a landing page, set up only if the review supports it.

    Result: The test has a stated budget cap and a stated question.

  5. A marketplace spend review

    A comparison of what each marketplace costs against the orders and repeat buyers it produced.

    Result: The owner sees the cost of each listing next to its orders.

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.

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 digital marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand the objective

    We agree the one thing this campaign needs to achieve before choosing any channel.

  2. 2

    Audit available channels

    We assess which channels are realistic to run well within the budget and timeline.

  3. 3

    Strategise the central idea

    One message and offer is developed that will work across every planned channel.

  4. 4

    Implement across channels

    Each channel receives its own adapted version, launched on a shared timeline.

  5. 5

    Measure as one campaign

    Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.

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.

Do we need every digital channel?
No. A trader needs the two or three where its buyers already look. We read your enquiry history to name them, and leave out the rest until there is time and stock to serve them.
Can chemicals be advertised on Google and Facebook?
Platforms restrict some chemical products and change their rules, so check each platform's current advertising policy for the chemicals you sell. We design campaigns around what the policy allows and drop products that are not permitted.
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.
