Pharmaceutical distributors · WhatsApp marketing
Take orders, confirm delivery and send trade updates on the channel chemists already use.
WhatsApp marketing for a pharmaceutical distributor means using one business number to take chemists' lists, confirm orders and send trade updates. GullySales works on setting up that number, the replies and the record behind 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 pharmaceutical distributors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Chemists already send lists on WhatsApp”
A chemist photographs a handwritten list and sends it to the delivery boy or the salesman. That habit is the starting point. The problem is that the list sits on a personal phone and is entered into billing whenever someone remembers.
“Updates for the trade are not promotions for the public”
A message that a seasonal range is in stock, sent to chemists who asked for it, is trade information. A forwarded message with prices that reaches the public is a different matter, so keep the list to known trade contacts.
“A broadcast to everyone annoys everyone”
Sending the same message to chemists, hospitals and company managers wastes the reader's time. Groups by buyer type, with a clear way to stop messages, keep the channel welcome and keep the number from being reported.
What we do
What we deliver for pharmaceutical distributors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A business number and profile
A dedicated number with business name, hours and a short description of supply to the trade.
Result: Chemists have one number to send orders to.
An order-entry routine
Who reads the list, who enters it and how the confirmation goes back.
Result: Each list becomes an entered order.
Reply templates
Short saved replies for order received, item short, delivery slot and payment reminder.
Result: Staff reply in the same words each time.
Contact groups by buyer type
Chemists, hospitals and companies kept apart, with consent noted.
Result: Messages go only to people who agreed.
A message log
Orders and conversations linked to the chemist record.
Result: The owner can read an order history on request.
How the result is measured
- Messages delivered
- Reply rate
- Enquiries from WhatsApp

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
Understand current WhatsApp use
We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.
- 2
Audit common questions
We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.
- 3
Set up automation and templates
An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.
- 4
Connect to the CRM
Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.
- 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.
