Chocolate manufacturers · WhatsApp marketing

Take gifting enquiries, send price lists and confirm orders where the buyer already chats.

WhatsApp marketing for a chocolate maker is using the chat the buyer already opens to share catalogues, answer questions and confirm orders. GullySales works on the business profile, the replies and the lists, and leaves your customers' consent and the platform's current rules in front of every message.

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 chocolate manufacturers

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

  • “Gifting enquiries start as a photo and a question”

    A buyer sends a picture of a box seen elsewhere and asks for the price. A saved reply with sizes, customisation and a quote sheet turns that into an order conversation before the buyer asks another maker.

  • “A catalogue beats a long voice note”

    Describing twelve boxes in speech loses the buyer. A catalogue in the business profile, with names, sizes and photographs, lets the buyer browse and forward to the person who approves.

  • “Delivery updates calm a nervous buyer”

    A box going to another city in warm weather worries the buyer. A message saying it has been packed, dispatched and delivered, with a picture of the packing, reduces repeated calls.

  • “Broadcasting without consent damages the number”

    Sending offers to people who never asked can lead to blocks and reports. Keep a list of buyers who agreed to hear from you and give each an easy way to stop.

What we do

What we deliver for chocolate manufacturers.

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

  1. A business profile and catalogue

    A set-up of your business profile, with products, sizes, prices where you wish to show them, and ordering hours.

    Result: A buyer sees a catalogue the moment they open the chat.

  2. Saved replies for common questions

    Replies for price, customisation, minimum order, delivery cities and arrival in warm weather.

    Result: Your team answers the common questions the same way.

  3. A consent-based contact list

    A record of buyers who agreed to receive updates, with the date and the way they agreed.

    Result: Each name on the list has a recorded permission.

  4. Order confirmation and dispatch messages

    Templates for confirming an order, sharing a payment note and announcing dispatch and delivery.

    Result: Every order has a confirmation and a dispatch message.

  5. A seasonal message plan

    A short plan of festival and wedding messages for past buyers who have agreed to hear from you.

    Result: The plan lists each message, its audience and its date.

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.

Your brief

Tell us what you need, and we will read it before we call.

Eight short steps about your business, what you want and who decides. Most questions are a tap, and you can skip any you would rather answer on the call.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Can we message all our old customers?
Message only those who agreed to hear from you, and check the platform's current rules before any bulk sending. We help you set up how permission is asked and recorded.
Is WhatsApp enough for corporate buyers?
It suits the first conversation and the confirmation. A corporate buyer wants a written quote and an invoice, so the chat should lead to a document the approver can file.
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.
