Packaged drinking water manufacturers · WhatsApp marketing

Take orders, send delivery notes and answer queries on the app your buyers already use.

WhatsApp marketing for a water plant is the use of a business number to take orders, confirm deliveries and keep customers informed. GullySales works on the account set-up, the message wording and the rules 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 packaged drinking water manufacturers

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

  • “The order is already placed on WhatsApp”

    Homes, shops and caterers message the number on the can or the van. If that number is the driver's private phone, orders disappear when the driver is off route. A business number kept by the office catches them.

  • “A catalogue answers the first three questions”

    Buyers ask for can sizes, rates and delivery days before anything else. A catalogue and a saved reply with those details save the same typing a hundred times and make the plant look organised.

  • “Broadcasts to the wrong people become spam”

    A message about a new scheme sent to every contact irritates customers who only wanted a can. Lists by locality and buyer type keep each message relevant and respect the person receiving it.

  • “Event orders need a monitored number”

    A caterer sending a message at night expects an answer by morning. A number that nobody checks on event days loses the biggest orders. Someone must own the inbox and the cut-off time.

What we do

What we deliver for packaged drinking water manufacturers.

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

  1. Business number set-up

    A business profile with name, hours, address, catalogue and an away message.

    Result: Customers see a proper business profile when they message.

  2. Saved replies

    Ready replies for rates, can sizes, deposit, delivery days and complaint handling.

    Result: Staff answer common questions with one tap.

  3. Customer lists by locality and type

    Contacts grouped by street, buyer type and delivery day, with consent noted.

    Result: A message can reach one street without touching the rest.

  4. Order confirmation and delivery message

    A short format for confirming an order and informing the customer that the van is on the way.

    Result: Each order has a confirmation the customer can show.

  5. Event day roster

    A named person who watches the number on event and wedding days, with a cut-off notice.

    Result: Event messages are never left unread.

  6. Opt-in and opt-out wording

    Simple wording that asks permission to send updates and honours a request to stop.

    Result: Every list has a note of who agreed to receive messages.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Is it all right to message customers who have not asked?
Message people who have ordered from you or asked to hear from you, and stop when they say so. Check the platform's current rules and the law that applies with your own adviser before any broadcast.
Should the driver use the business number?
Keep the business number with the office, and give the driver the route and order details from it. The driver's own phone then stays private and orders are never lost with a person.
Can we use automatic replies?
Simple away messages and saved replies are useful. Anything automatic should point the customer to a person for orders and complaints, and the platform's current rules on business messaging apply.
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.
