Mining and quarrying companies · Pay per click advertising

Pay for the search that carries a site address and a quantity, and block every other one.

PPC for a quarry or mining company is paid search aimed at the people who order loads of material. A site engineer or a purchase head searches in a hurry, so the advertisement must name the grade and the delivery area. GullySales builds the campaigns, the landing pages and the call tracking, and blocks the job seekers and the equipment sellers.

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

What pay per click advertising means

Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend against enquiries received.

For mining and quarrying companies

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

  • “Equipment and machinery searches use the same words”

    Crusher, excavator and tipper searches come mostly from people who want to buy a machine. If those words are not blocked, the budget goes to people who will never order a load.

  • “The wrong town gets the click”

    A quarry that delivers within one belt pays for clicks from half the state. Location settings and a delivery area line on the advertisement keep the call local.

  • “The call comes in on a noisy site”

    A buyer rings from a pour or a road job and cannot talk long. A landing page that shows the grade, the load size and a WhatsApp option saves the call.

What we do

What we deliver for mining and quarrying companies.

The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.

  1. Campaign per material with its own landing page

    Separate campaigns for sand, aggregate and stone, each landing on the page for that material, not the home page.

    Result: A buyer lands on the page for what they searched.

  2. Negative search list for equipment, jobs and licences

    A list built from the first search terms report and extended as new irrelevant terms appear: machinery, plant for sale, job vacancy, lease auction.

    Result: Budget stops going to people who are not buyers.

  3. Delivery area settings

    Advertisements set to the districts you serve, with the nearest town named in the advertisement text.

    Result: Calls come from places a tipper can reach.

  4. Call and WhatsApp tracking

    A separate number and click-to-chat button per campaign, with the call length noted.

    Result: You know which campaign produced a site visit and a load.

  5. Search terms review

    A reading of the terms that triggered your advertisements, with what was added or blocked and why.

    Result: The owner sees where the spend went, in plain words.

How the result is measured

  • Cost per click
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries from paid search

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

Searches to bid on and block

The searches worth paying for at a quarry, and the ones to keep out.

M-sand, jelly or aggregate supplier plus town
Bid, one campaign per material. The buyer has a site and a date. Put the grade, the load size and the delivery area in the advertisement.
Bulk iron ore, limestone or dolomite supplier
Bid carefully, in a small campaign for plant buyers. Land on a page with grades, test report details and the transport route, and ask for the quantity per lot.
Granite or stone blocks for export
Bid with its own page. An importer or an agent wants block sizes, colours and the yard. Ask for the destination port and the quantity in the form.
Crusher, excavator, tipper or machinery for sale
Block. These come from buyers of machines. Add machinery, plant for sale, second hand and rent as negatives unless you also hire out equipment.
Mining jobs, lease auction and licence searches
Block. Job seekers and people asking about leases or permits will not order a load. Add job, vacancy, salary, lease and licence as negatives.
Where the click lands, and what to count
Send sand clicks to the sand page and stone clicks to the stone page. Count a call or message that names a site, a grade and a quantity, not every click.

Who it is for

This is written for these mining and quarrying companies.

  • Stone quarries for aggregate and jelly
  • M-sand and crusher dust units
  • Granite and dimension stone quarries
  • Marble, sandstone and Kota stone units
  • Iron ore and manganese mines
  • Limestone and dolomite mines for plants
  • Sand and gravel suppliers
  • Crusher and screening plants

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Calls reach a supervisor's phone that is off during blasting or loading, so paid clicks would pay for missed calls
  • You have not decided which grades and towns you will supply, and the advertisements would name both blindly
  • No one records where a caller found you, so you could not tell a paid call from any other

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

PPC for mining and quarrying companies: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Bring search-term reports, conversion definitions, and the sales outcome of past enquiries where available. Identify products, locations, and enquiries you cannot serve.

Make the scope clear

Choose the offer and landing page before setting a media budget. Agree who pays the platform, which actions count as conversions, and how unsuitable searches will be reviewed.

Check the work in use

Trace a test enquiry from the advert to the sales record. Review qualified enquiries and orders alongside spend, and separate duplicates or spam from genuine buyer demand.

Know when to change course

If the advert generates enquiries that do not fit, revise targeting and qualification before increasing spend. If suitable enquiries are lost after contact, work on the sales process.

These are discussion points, not a fixed package. GullySales confirms the deliverables, responsibilities, fee, and term in writing after reading your brief and speaking with you.

How it works

How the pay per click advertising work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Budget and responsibility approval

    You approve the channels, total spend, account ownership, and budget-movement limits. We name the person who approves campaigns and the sales contact responsible for enquiry outcomes.

  2. 2

    Tracking readiness decision

    We check account tracking against your enquiry sheet, call log, or CRM. Missing access and unreliable conversion events are identified before deciding what is ready to launch.

  3. 3

    Sales definitions sign-off

    Your sales contact agrees what qualifies an enquiry and what counts as a completed order. We record the baseline and decide how duplicate enquiries will be handled.

  4. 4

    Campaign launch approval

    You review the proposed campaign structure and response route. Required changes to advertising material or landing pages are identified, with any separate production work agreed before launch.

  5. 5

    Lead-quality review

    Your sales team supplies enquiry outcomes; we compare them with campaign and search-term records. Irrelevant traffic and missing source information are addressed before recommending more spend.

  6. 6

    Allocation decision and handover

    We make authorised budget moves or send decisions outside those limits for approval. The combined report records the evidence and identifies any action needed from your sales team.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we bid on our own quarry name?
Yes, in a small separate campaign. A buyer who heard your name from a contractor may type it, and a rival can appear above you. It costs little and it keeps the direct line open.
What do we do with calls from people asking for jobs?
Add job and vacancy words as negatives, and say on the landing page that you supply material only. Put the careers line on a separate page so a job seeker does not use the sales number.
Is call-only an advertisement worth trying?
Sometimes. A driver or a foreman prefers a call to a form. Use it with call tracking and an answer time rule, and drop it if calls come at hours when nobody answers.
How do we know a click became a real load?
Ask each caller for the site, the grade and the quantity, and write them down. Match the tracked number to the delivery challan, so the order, not the click, is what you count.
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.
