Courier companies · Content marketing

One written answer on what can go abroad, used by every staff member.

Content for a courier counter is the international guide: what can be sent to each country, how it has to be packed, what happens at customs on the other end. GullySales writes it with you from current carrier rules and turns it into pages, a WhatsApp reply set and a counter sheet.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What content marketing means

Content marketing is writing articles, guides and pages that answer the questions buyers search before they are ready to enquire. This makes your business visible and trusted before the first call. GullySales plans this content from the first conversation onward, choosing topics that match real search demand rather than guesses.

For courier companies

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

  • “The customs answer decides the booking”

    A parent sending pickles to Toronto is really asking whether the parcel will be thrown away. The counter that answers with confidence gets the parcel.

  • “The same guide has to work in three places”

    A page for search, a message for a WhatsApp rate enquiry and a printed sheet at the counter, all saying exactly the same thing.

  • “Document senders are a season of their own”

    Passport, visa and university application papers come with a deadline attached. A page on transit times and proof of delivery reaches that sender when it matters.

What we do

What we deliver for courier companies.

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

  1. A destination guide for the countries you send to most

    What goes, what does not, how it must be packed and labelled, and what the sender should expect at the other end, written per country.

    Result: Every staff member gives the same answer.

  2. A packing guide by item type

    Food, sweets, glass, medicines, documents and clothes, with the packing each needs and what a customer should bring to the counter.

    Result: Fewer parcels are repacked or refused at handover.

  3. A customs and duty explainer in general terms

    How duty at the destination generally works and who pays it, with the sender told plainly to confirm the current position for their country.

    Result: Nobody is surprised by a bill at the other end.

  4. A weight and slab explainer

    How weight slabs work, how a light bulky box is charged, and what packing adds, written for a customer comparing two counters.

    Result: The rate conversation stops being an argument.

  5. The guide turned into replies and a counter sheet

    The same content prepared as WhatsApp quick replies and a laminated sheet at the desk, so it is used rather than filed.

    Result: The answer is at hand when the queue is long.

  6. A document courier page for passports and applications

    Transit times, proof of delivery, what to do about a deadline and how the tracking works, for senders with a date they cannot miss.

    Result: The anxious sender chooses the counter that explained it.

  7. A review date against carrier rules

    A scheduled check of the guide against the carrier's current instructions before each festival season, with changes carried into all three formats.

    Result: Your staff are never quoting last year's rules.

How the result is measured

  • Pages published
  • Organic traffic
  • Enquiries from content pages

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Questions buyers ask first

The questions a customer asks before booking a parcel, and the piece that answers each.

What can I not send?
A prohibited items page in general terms: cash, certain batteries, liquids, food for some countries. Say the carrier's current list governs and show where a customer checks it.
Where is my parcel and who do I call?
A tracking page: how to track, what each status wording means, who at the counter to call and when a query becomes a formal complaint.
What if my parcel is lost or damaged?
A claims page: declared value, insurance cover, papers and photographs needed, and where the claim goes. Customers book where a claim looks straightforward.
What do I need to book a pickup?
Explain how to book, the cut-off for same-day pickup, and what ID and address proof an international parcel needs. This saves the second trip to the counter.
Can you collect from my office on a regular basis?
An office accounts page: the pickup routine, billing terms, the paper that goes with each parcel and the person at your end who handles it.
How does cash on delivery work for my online shop?
A seller page: how COD is collected, when it is remitted to the seller, and what happens to a returned parcel. Keep it general and say the carrier's terms apply.

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 content marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Confirm the plan

    Topics and formats for the coming month are confirmed against the content strategy.

  2. 2

    Produce and review

    Content is written or filmed, then reviewed by someone who knows your trade before it goes out.

  3. 3

    Publish and distribute

    Finished content is published to the site and pushed through the channels your buyers actually use.

  4. 4

    Track enquiries

    Enquiries are traced back to content where a direct line exists, and reported honestly where it does not.

  5. 5

    Report and adjust

    We report results and adjust the next topics based on what actually worked.

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.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Rules change. How do we keep the guide current?
Put a review date on it and check it against the carrier's current instructions before each festival season. Anything that turns on the destination country's customs is for the sender to confirm, and the guide should say so plainly.
Will a guide really change bookings?
It changes the conversation at the counter. The person who can answer a customs question in one go gets the parcel, and writing it down means every staff member can. That is the difference between one good counter hand and a counter.
Should we make a video on how to pack a parcel?
Yes. A short phone video of packing a fragile item or a bottle of pickle shows what the customer must do, and answers a question the counter hears all day. Put it on the packing guide and send it on WhatsApp.
How do we know whether a guide page brought a booking?
Ask each new customer at the counter how they found you and whether they read the guide, and tick it on the booking sheet. Over a season you see which countries and item types the guides are bringing in.
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.
