Third-party logistics companies · Digital marketing

Spend on the channels brands use to find a logistics partner, and no others.

Digital marketing for a third-party logistics company is the combined plan of search, LinkedIn, email and a website that all point at one thing: a rate request with volumes. GullySales works on choosing the channels that suit your sites and client types and joining them to one record.

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

Third-party logistics companies: show a real physical business scene illustrating Client contracts and rate cards. Hold each client’s rates by service, lane, pallet, carton, trip or tonne, with validity dates and special terms, so every booking is priced from the contract it falls under.

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 third-party logistics companies

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

  • “The buyer pool is narrow, so reach matters less than fit”

    Only a limited set of brands suits your sites. Broad advertising that reaches the whole country wastes spend, while a narrow list of named founders and operations heads is worth the effort.

  • “Channels must hand over to each other”

    A founder reads a LinkedIn post, searches your name, lands on a client-type page and sends a request. If each step is run by someone different with no shared record, you cannot see what worked.

  • “Paid search suits specific, high-intent terms”

    Searches for fulfilment or warehousing for a named client type carry intent. Spend on narrow terms with a landing page that asks for volumes, and keep it off broad logistics words.

  • “Email still reaches the finance head”

    Finance and operations managers read email at work, and a short note with a sample stock report suits them. Pair it with LinkedIn and calls to the founder, not in place of them.

What we do

What we deliver for third-party logistics companies.

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

  1. A channel plan matched to client types

    A written choice of search, LinkedIn, email and calls for each client type, with the reason for each.

    Result: You can say why each channel is in the plan.

  2. Landing pages for campaigns

    Pages built for D2C, distributors and pre-festival capacity, each ending in the volume request form.

    Result: Every campaign lands on a page made for it.

  3. Tracking from first touch to request

    A way to see which channel brought each rate request, shared across sales and marketing.

    Result: The source of every request is recorded.

  4. A small paid search trial

    A limited test on a few specific terms, with spend capped by you and results read honestly.

    Result: You decide whether to continue on real figures.

  5. A shared view of the plan

    One page showing channels, owners and what each is for, kept current as the plan changes.

    Result: Your team can see who does what.

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.

Where should we spend first?
On the page and form that receive enquiries, then on the channel your best clients came from. Fix the receiving end before paying to send more people to it.
Is digital marketing enough, or do we still need outbound calls?
Both. Digital marketing brings brands that are searching; outbound reaches those who are not yet. A 3PL sale needs a person to follow up either way.
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.
