Manufacturing companies · Public relations

Get featured in the trade publication a procurement head actually reads.

Digital PR for a manufacturing company means getting coverage in industry trade publications and online media, such as a feature on a new production line or a certification milestone. This reaches buyers where they actually look for supplier news. GullySales pitches this and turns coverage into content the business can reuse.

What public relations means

Public relations is getting your business covered by journalists, trade publications or local news, which carries more trust than an advert because a third party is saying it. GullySales pitches your story to the right publications and prepares your team for interviews when coverage is offered.

For manufacturing companies

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

  • “Trade publications reach buyers more precisely than general media”

    A feature in an industry-specific publication read by procurement heads and design engineers is worth more to a manufacturer than a broader business media mention.

  • “A capacity or capability expansion is a real, pitchable story”

    News of a new production line, a certification, or an expanded capacity gives trade media and buyers a concrete reason to pay attention now.

  • “Digital coverage compounds through search over time”

    Unlike a one-off print mention, an online trade publication feature continues to be found by buyers searching the topic long after it was published.

What we do

What we deliver for manufacturing companies.

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

  1. Trade publication pitch list

    A list of industry trade publications read by procurement heads and design engineers, matched to your product categories.

    Result: Coverage reaches the exact buyers who read these publications.

  2. Capacity or certification announcement pitch

    A pitch built around a new production line, capacity expansion or certification, giving trade media a concrete reason to cover it now.

    Result: The company gets a real story to offer, not a general company profile.

  3. Evergreen coverage kept discoverable

    Published coverage checked to make sure it stays indexed and findable by buyers searching the topic later.

    Result: One feature keeps being found long after it was first published.

  4. Coverage tracked to RFQs

    New RFQs checked against whether they mention finding the company through recent coverage.

    Result: You know whether the coverage actually reached buyers who then enquired.

  5. Press-ready facts and photographs

    A folder of approved production photographs and accurate capacity or certification facts, ready to hand a journalist.

    Result: A press opportunity is never lost waiting for material to be prepared.

How the result is measured

  • Coverage secured
  • Publication reach
  • Enquiries after coverage

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

What is worth telling the press

Plant news that a trade editor and a buyer will both read.

A certification, named exactly
Name the certificate, the awarding body and the scope, such as ISO 9001 for a named plant, and keep the certificate copy ready. Trade editors check.
A new line or added capacity
Describe the machine, the products it makes and the plant location on one page. Add a photograph of the line running with staff in protective gear.
The trade magazines your buyers read
Find the trade magazines and association newsletters for your product, such as packaging, auto components or textiles. Pitch the editor a technical article, not a sales note.
Export or OEM supply
Before you say you supply a named OEM or ship to a named country, check your contract for confidentiality. Use a buyer's name only with its written consent.
A comment on a sector change
Offer your head of engineering when a raw material price, a standard or a regulation affects your sector. Keep it factual and on the record.
A fact sheet for editors
Keep the founding year, plant address, products made, certifications held and a named contact for enquiries on one sheet. Editors reuse it for months.

Who it is for

This is written for these manufacturing companies.

  • Component and parts manufacturers
  • Industrial equipment manufacturers
  • Chemical and process manufacturers
  • Textile and garment manufacturers
  • Packaging manufacturers
  • Contract and private label manufacturers
  • Export-oriented manufacturing units
  • Manufacturers supplying government and institutional buyers

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 public relations work runs

  1. 1

    Understand what is newsworthy

    We identify genuine stories in your business, since manufactured news rarely earns real coverage.

  2. 2

    Audit relevant press

    We research which journalists and publications actually cover your industry or locality.

  3. 3

    Prepare the pitch

    A release or pitch is written specifically for the target publication, not sent as a mass broadcast.

  4. 4

    Approach and follow up

    Journalists are approached directly, with a reasonable follow-up rather than a single unanswered email.

  5. 5

    Measure and prepare ahead

    Coverage is tracked, and a communications plan is kept ready for any significant matter that may need a public response.

    • Logo and colour palette
    • Printed stationery
    • Social accounts opened
    Result
    No numbers were recorded for this engagement. The work is described in full in the case study.

    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
Do we need a formal press release?
A well-written, specific pitch to the right trade publication works better than a generic press release sent widely.
How is success measured?
By whether coverage reaches your target buyer types and shows up as enquiries mentioning where they found you.
A trade magazine says coverage comes with an advertising package. How do we tell paid from earned?
Ask in writing whether a story is editorial and whether it needs an advertisement to run. If the editor sets the price, it is advertising. Earned coverage depends on the story being useful to the magazine's readers. Do not report a bought page as press.
Who in the company should speak to the press?
Pick one person for business questions, usually the managing director, and one for technical questions, usually the head of engineering. Brief both on what cannot be said, such as customer names under contract, and send every quote through the same person.
Do we need to advertise?
Most manufacturers gain more first from a faster quote and a clearer capability page. Advertising helps when one product category or export market needs pushing this quarter.
Our buyers are engineers. Will your copy be technically right?
Only if your engineers check it, so we build that step in. We draft from your drawings, machine list and test certificates. Someone on your side signs off every capability claim before it goes live.
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.
