Jig and fixture manufacturers · WhatsApp marketing

Turn the phone photo of a part into a message you can quote from.

WhatsApp for a jig and fixture maker is where engineers send photographs, sketches and short questions, so it works as both an enquiry desk and a follow-up channel. GullySales sets up WhatsApp Business, message templates and a rule for who replies.

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 jig and fixture manufacturers

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

  • “The first message is a photo with no detail”

    An engineer standing at the machine sends a picture and asks for a price. Without a reply that asks for the datum, material, cycle time and batch, the conversation stalls or turns into a guess.

  • “Drawings travel on personal phones”

    Customer drawings arrive on a sales person's own number and stay there. When that person leaves, the files and the conversation go too.

  • “Broadcasts to the wrong list annoy engineers”

    Sending the same offer to every contact, including a quality head who wants gauges, trains people to ignore you. Lists need to be grouped by role and fixture interest.

  • “Customers can opt out”

    Contacts must be asked before they are added to updates, and a message should offer a way to stop. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging.

What we do

What we deliver for jig and fixture manufacturers.

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

  1. WhatsApp Business profile

    Business name, description, catalogue of fixture types, address and hours set up on a company number.

    Result: A profile that tells a new contact what you build.

  2. Quotable-enquiry reply template

    A reply that asks for drawing or model, material, machine, cycle time, batch and launch date.

    Result: A template saved as a reply template for the whole team.

  3. Shared inbox rule

    A rule for who answers, who owns the thread and where drawings are saved.

    Result: A written rule that keeps drawings off personal phones.

  4. Contact groups by role

    Lists for tooling engineers, quality heads, shop owners and purchase contacts, kept with consent.

    Result: Separate lists, each with a record of how the contact agreed.

  5. Follow-up message set

    Short messages for after a layout, after a trial and before a part launch.

    Result: A set of messages tied to your follow-up stages.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we use our personal numbers?
No. Use a company number on WhatsApp Business so the history stays with the toolroom. Personal numbers carry customer drawings out of the door when someone leaves.
Can we send updates to all our contacts?
Only to those who agreed to receive them, and with a way to opt out. Group by role so a quality head does not get welding jig news. Check the platform's current rules before any broadcast.
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.
