Garment wholesalers · WhatsApp marketing

Run one clean broadcast list whose catalogues answer the ratio question first.

WhatsApp marketing for a garment wholesaler means using WhatsApp Business to send catalogues, take bookings and keep shops informed, with permission and a sorted list. GullySales works on the list, the catalogue format and the rules for what goes out.

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 garment wholesalers

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

  • “Scattered groups hide who engaged”

    A wholesaler running several groups and personal chats cannot see which shop opened a catalogue or replied. One organised list, sorted by shop type and town, shows who gets what and lets you follow up with the ones who replied.

  • “The ratio question should be answered in the post”

    The first reply to a design is a question about ratio and minimum. If the message already carries them, the shop moves to booking. If not, the conversation restarts every time and the first to reply wins.

  • “Permission and frequency decide whether messages are read”

    A shop that did not ask to be on a list will mute it or leave, and a muted list is read by nobody. A list built from shops that agreed to receive catalogues, with a clear way out, keeps the readers who matter. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging.

  • “Resellers should not see the shop price”

    Putting a reseller and a shop in the same broadcast exposes both rates and starts price arguments in the replies. Separate lists with separate minimums keep each group's terms clear, and let you change one group's offer without touching the other.

What we do

What we deliver for garment wholesalers.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business setup

    Business profile, catalogue feature, labels for shop type and town, and quick replies for common questions.

    Result: Staff reply from a labelled, organised account.

  2. A permission-based broadcast list

    Shops and resellers added with their consent and sorted into separate lists.

    Result: Each broadcast reaches only the buyers meant for it.

  3. A catalogue message format

    A fixed layout carrying design, set price, ratio, minimum and booking instruction.

    Result: Every design message answers the usual questions.

  4. Quick reply library

    Saved replies for ratio, minimum, dispatch, returns and payment.

    Result: Staff answer repeat questions with the same wording.

  5. A booking capture routine

    A short rule for moving a confirmed booking from chat into the buyer register.

    Result: No booking stays only in a conversation.

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.

What to capture or send

Put the ratio and the lot in the first message of every catalogue.

Catalogue message
Photo, fabric, sizes in the set, ratio and minimum lot in one fixed format, so a shop can compare without asking.
Saved reply for ratio and minimum
Pre-written answers to the two questions every buyer asks, kept in the business app so each salesman gives the same one.
Shop list and reseller list
Separate broadcast lists, each limited to buyers who agreed, so a reseller never sees a shop-rate catalogue.
Booking confirmation
A message listing the designs, ratio and rate agreed, copied into the register straight after.
Dues note
A short message to the shop with the amount and the date, sent by the person who owns the account.

Who it is for

This is written for these garment wholesalers.

  • Multi-brand clothing retailers in towns and city markets
  • Boutiques and women's wear shops that buy by the design
  • Kidswear shops and baby-wear sellers
  • Instagram, Meesho and WhatsApp resellers who buy small mixed lots
  • Men's wear shops that stock shirts, trousers and ethnic wear
  • School and workwear uniform suppliers
  • Wedding and festive wear shops that book early
  • Stockists and sub-wholesalers in smaller towns

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your numbers are scattered across salesmen's phones, with no list that is yours to broadcast
  • You have not asked shops whether they want catalogues and plan to send to every contact
  • The team cannot answer within the hours buyers message, and chats would go cold

How it works

How the whatsapp marketing work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Read the chats you already have

    We read how customers write to you, which questions repeat and where a chat goes quiet. The repeated questions decide what gets automated first.

  2. 2

    Sort the list and the permission

    Contacts who asked to hear from you are separated from numbers that only sit in a phone book. We agree the wording new contacts will see before they say yes.

  3. 3

    Choose the app or the API

    One phone and a small team can stay on the ordinary app. Several people on one number, templates or a CRM link need the API through a provider, which is its own piece of setup work.

  4. 4

    Write the replies and the plan

    The greeting, away message, saved replies and handover rule are written in your words and approved by you. The message plan and its templates follow.

  5. 5

    Connect the record and test

    Each link carries its source line and each chat lands in the CRM. We test on real phones, including a customer who asks for a person.

  6. 6

    Read the unanswered questions

    A question the first reply could not answer becomes a new saved reply or a fixed handover. Stop requests are watched too, with the number's quality rating where the API is used, since both show a message plan that has gone too far.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can we send catalogues to anyone with a number?
Send to shops and resellers who have agreed to receive them, and give an easy way to stop. Unsolicited bulk sending risks complaints and account problems. Check the platform's current rules before building a list.
Do we need the WhatsApp API?
Not to start. WhatsApp Business with labels and quick replies suits a small team. A larger operation with several staff may need the API, and GullySales can discuss that once volume is clear.
What happens to existing WhatsApp groups of shops?
Move shops to a broadcast list you control and close mixed groups, where one shop sees another's questions and rates. Groups hide who engaged. Tell the shops why, offer the list as the way to receive catalogues, and respect those who decline.
How do we stop competing shops seeing each other's orders?
Use broadcast lists, where each buyer sees only your message, and answer bookings in a private chat. Avoid groups for rates or orders. A boutique asking for exclusive designs will not stay if a rival sees what it booked.
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.
