Cold-chain logistics providers · WhatsApp marketing

Make the booking chat collect the cargo detail a dispatcher needs before it quotes.

WhatsApp marketing for a cold-chain provider is the use of a business number to take booking enquiries, send quotes and share trip updates with shippers. GullySales sets up the account, the reply kit and the rules for who answers and when.

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 cold-chain logistics providers

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

  • “A booking arrives as a voice note and a photo”

    A fruit packer sends a voice message and a picture of the pallets. Without a standard set of questions, the dispatcher has to guess the temperature band, weight and loading time, and the quote that follows is slow and loose.

  • “The personal number of one dispatcher is a single point of failure”

    When the contact lives on one person's phone, a leave day or a lost handset breaks the line. A business account with shared handling means a shipper reaches the company, not a person.

  • “Trip updates are what shippers actually want to receive”

    A line stating the vehicle has left, a photo of the display at departure and a message on arrival gives the logistics head what they ask for first. This is service, and it builds trust faster than any promotional message.

  • “Broadcasting to shippers needs consent and care”

    A route offer sent to a list of people who never agreed to hear from you is read as spam. Check the platform's current rules and send only to contacts who have dealt with you or asked to be included.

What we do

What we deliver for cold-chain logistics providers.

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

  1. A business account set up for bookings

    Business profile, catalogue of vehicle types and temperature bands, opening hours and an away message for out-of-hours.

    Result: A profile that tells a shipper what you run and when you reply.

  2. A booking reply kit

    A set of saved replies asking cargo, temperature, weight, route and loading time, in the order your dispatcher needs them.

    Result: Every enquiry gets the same questions.

  3. Trip update messages

    Short formats for departure, in transit and delivery, with when to attach a photo of the display.

    Result: Shippers receive consistent updates on their loads.

  4. An out-of-hours rule

    Who answers late and early messages, what they may promise and what waits for the dispatcher.

    Result: A written rule so no enquiry is left overnight.

  5. A consent list for route offers

    A list of contacts who have agreed to receive route and season notes, with the date and source of the agreement.

    Result: Broadcasts go only to people who have asked.

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

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 whatsapp marketing work runs

  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.

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.

Tell us what you need
Should we use the free business app or the API?
Begin with the business app if one or two people handle chats. Move to the API through a provider when several people share the number and you need reply tracking and templates.
Can we send quotes on WhatsApp?
Yes, as a message or a short document. Keep the cargo, route, vehicle and loading time written in the quote so there is no dispute later. Send formal terms through the channel your shipper accepts.
What about group chats with shippers?
A shared group with a key shipper's team can suit daily loads. Keep it for operations, set who may post, and keep pricing and complaints out of it.
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.
