Auto parts manufacturers · Digital marketing

Combine the marketplace listing, search and WhatsApp so no enquiry waits.

Digital marketing for an auto parts manufacturer runs three things at once: the B2B marketplace listing, the company website with part numbers and specifications, and WhatsApp for dealer orders. Most units treat the marketplace listing as the whole strategy. GullySales manages all three and reports which one brought which order.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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 auto parts manufacturers

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

  • “The marketplace listing and the website should match”

    A buyer who checks the website after finding the marketplace listing should see the same certifications and range, not a thinner page.

  • “WhatsApp is now the reorder channel for many dealers”

    A distributor placing a repeat stock order often prefers a message with a photo of the part over a phone call.

  • “Export enquiries need a faster reply path”

    A first-time export buyer emailing from a different time zone needs an acknowledgement within hours, not the next working day.

What we do

What we deliver for auto parts manufacturers.

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

  1. Marketplace listing and website brought into line

    Your IndiaMART or TradeIndia listing checked against the website so certifications, part range and pricing basis match on both.

    Result: A buyer who checks both sees one consistent supplier, not two.

  2. WhatsApp Business set up for dealer orders

    A WhatsApp Business number configured with catalogue, quick replies and order confirmation templates for repeat dealer stock queries.

    Result: A dealer's repeat order is confirmed in writing instead of remembered from a call.

  3. Export enquiry routing across time zones

    A process that flags a new export enquiry from email or the marketplace for a same-day acknowledgement, whatever time it arrives.

    Result: An overseas buyer gets an acknowledgement before checking a competitor.

  4. One enquiry record across every channel

    Enquiries from the marketplace, website, WhatsApp and email logged into a single CRM record instead of three separate inboxes.

    Result: Whoever answers can see that this buyer already wrote in on IndiaMART last week.

  5. Channel report against the baseline

    A report showing which channel, marketplace, search or WhatsApp, brought each enquiry and order, measured against the starting baseline.

    Result: You know which channel is actually worth the time spent on it.

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.

Where a manufacturer starts

An auto parts manufacturer starts by making its part numbers and certificates easy to find.

Part-number catalogue pages
Publish each part with number, dimensions, material and the vehicle it fits. Check that a buyer can reach one by searching its part number.
IndiaMART listing matched to the site
Make products, specifications and certification identical on both. Record each marketplace enquiry with its product and who answered it.
Certificates and audit documents folder
Keep the quality certificates, test reports and plant photographs in one folder you can send on request. Note each time a buyer asks for one.
A single enquiry sheet
Log enquiries from the marketplace, the site, WhatsApp and trade shows in one sheet with part number, buyer, date and next step.
Dealer order message
Share the stock list and new parts with dealers on WhatsApp. Record which dealers reorder and which have gone silent.
What to leave until later
Leave paid search and social media until the catalogue and enquiry sheet work. OEM buyers search by part number, not by brand slogans.

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

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

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, 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 reply time, a follow-up sequence, the page buyers land on 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.

How fast does a marketplace enquiry have to be answered?
The same day, in writing, with a price and a lead time. The buyer sent that enquiry to several suppliers at once, so a Monday reply to a Friday enquiry reaches somebody who has already placed the order.
How is this different from a marketplace agency?
We connect the marketplace, the website and the sales follow-up, and report actual orders, not just leads.
Should we show our OEM customers' names on the site?
Only with their written permission, since many OEMs restrict it. If it is not allowed, describe the segment you supply, such as passenger cars or two-wheelers, and list your approvals and certificates. Ask the customer's purchase team what they permit.
Do we need a separate page for export buyers?
A page naming the countries and standards you ship against, the packing and the documents you provide helps an overseas buyer decide to write. Mention time zones in your contact notes, and log where each export enquiry came from.
How soon would we see more enquiries?
Fixing quote turnaround and catalogue structure shows within weeks. Ranking for part number searches and building export enquiries takes months.
Do we need to advertise, or is a marketplace listing enough?
A listing brings enquiries, but a proper catalogue site and a fast reply routine are needed to convert and keep the account.
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.
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.
