Put search, content and follow-up to work as one system for the drawing note.

Digital marketing for a surface treatment company is the combined use of search, your website, outreach and messaging to reach engineers who specify a process. GullySales works on choosing which of those carry weight for your tanks and tying them to the enquiry.

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 surface treatment companies

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

  • “Channels are chosen by the buyer's habit”

    An engineer finds a shop through a process search, a recommendation from a machine shop or a supplier list. Digital marketing here is not a feed of posts but a route from a drawing note to your enquiry form.

  • “Paid search suits a specific process”

    A buyer typing hard anodising near me already knows the need. A small, tightly targeted campaign on process names reaches that person, and a wide one wastes money on people with no part.

  • “Capacity limits what you should advertise”

    If the anodising line is full and passivation is idle, advertising should lean toward passivation. Marketing that ignores tank load brings enquiries you must refuse.

  • “Each channel needs the same message”

    An outreach note that says one thing and a website that says another confuse the engineer. One set of facts on alloys, sizes and documents should stand behind every channel.

What we do

What we deliver for surface treatment 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 by process

    A plan setting which processes get search ads, which get outreach and which rely on pages alone.

    Result: A plan that matches your tank load.

  2. One set of facts for every channel

    A shared sheet of alloys, sizes, thicknesses, colours and documents that all copy draws from.

    Result: The same figures appear in every message.

  3. Search campaigns on process names

    Small campaigns on specific processes in your region, sent to the matching page.

    Result: Spend that goes only to searches you can serve.

  4. An enquiry route from every channel

    Each channel ends at the form or the chat, tagged with its source.

    Result: You know which channel produced each enquiry.

  5. A review of results against capacity

    A look at enquiries by process against what your lines can take, to adjust emphasis.

    Result: Marketing that follows what your tanks can handle.

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.

Tell us what you need
Where should a small surface treater start?
With process pages and a proper enquiry form, since search is how engineers look. Ads, outreach and messaging are added once the pages can carry the traffic.
Is digital marketing worth it for a trade-led business?
It sits beside referrals rather than replacing them. A buyer recommended by a colleague still searches your name, and what they find should match what was said.
How do we judge whether it is working?
By enquiries that carry alloy and size, trial lots started and repeat orders from approved parts, not by visits or followers. We set those measures with you at the start.
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.
