GullySales

Personal care brands · Search engine optimisation

Be the page she finds when she searches for a shampoo for her scalp.

SEO for a personal care brand means getting product and concern pages to appear when a shopper searches for what her skin or hair needs, before she has chosen a brand. GullySales writes a page for each product that states its ingredients and who it suits, and sorts out the search for your own name, where marketplace listings sit above the brand.

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

What search engine optimisation means

Search engine optimisation (SEO) is the work of getting your website to appear when a buyer searches Google for what you sell. GullySales builds pages around real search terms, fixes technical issues that block ranking, and tracks which searches actually bring enquiries.

For personal care brands

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

  • “The product page is a photograph and two lines”

    A shopper searching for a shampoo for dandruff lands on a page with no ingredient list and no use instructions, so she goes back to the marketplace that has both.

  • “Searches name the concern, not the brand”

    Nobody types your brand on day one. They type dry scalp, oily skin or hair fall, and the page that wins is the one that says plainly what is in the bottle and who it is for.

  • “The ingredient text is the manufacturer's paragraph”

    The same description sits on every brand your contract manufacturer supplies. Search engines see ten copies and rank none of them well.

What we do

What we deliver for personal care brands.

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

  1. A page for every product, written from the label

    Ingredients in full, who it suits, how to use it, pack size and what it does not do, in plain words.

    Result: A buyer who lands on the page finds what the back of the pack would tell her.

  2. Concern pages above the product pages

    One page for each need your range is bought for, such as dry skin in winter or an itchy scalp, linking to the products that suit it and saying when to see a doctor instead.

    Result: The search made before she picks a brand lands on a page of yours.

  3. Ingredient and use text that is your own

    Descriptions rewritten from your formulation sheet and from the questions customers ask, not from the paragraph other brands copied.

    Result: Search engines see a page that exists nowhere else.

  4. The search for your own name taken in hand

    What appears when someone types the brand: your site, the marketplace listing, review pages and look-alike sellers, each given a job.

    Result: The check she makes before buying ends somewhere you control.

  5. Product markup a search engine can read

    Price, availability, size and ratings marked up on each product page, with duplicate addresses for every shade and pack size sorted out.

    Result: Your result looks like a shop, not a plain blue line.

  6. Organic orders read by page

    Searches for your name separated from searches for a concern, orders traced to the landing page and both set against the figures taken before work started.

    Result: You can name the page that sold the bottle.

How the result is measured

  • Ranking positions
  • Organic traffic
  • Enquiries from organic search

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

Searches your buyers type

What a shopper types before she buys a product like yours, and the page that answers it.

shampoo for dry scalp and dandruff
A concern page with a short guide on top, then the products that suit it. Name the ingredients and who each is for. This catches the shopper who has not picked a brand.
[your brand] hair oil ingredients
The product page itself. List every ingredient in the order printed on the pack, say what the oil is made for and add patch test advice. People check this before they pay.
is [your brand] safe for sensitive skin
A plain page on who the product suits and who should patch test first, with a line to stop use and see a doctor if a reaction starts. Avoid claims such as safe for all, which no formula can promise.
[your brand] vs [rival]
A comparison written honestly, with what differs and who each product suits. Left unwritten, a rival or a review site writes it for you.
herbal soap distributor in Karnataka
A page for trade buyers with the districts still open and an enquiry form, kept apart from the shopper pages. A shopper and a distributor want different things from the same brand.
private label shampoo manufacturer
Only if you take contract work. A capability page listing product types, minimum order and licences held, so a brand owner can decide before she calls.

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 search engine optimisation work runs

  1. 1

    Audit and baseline

    We record where the site stands today: positions, traffic, technical faults and the enquiries search currently produces. Nothing starts until this number is written down.

  2. 2

    Decide what to rank for

    We map the searches your buyers use, in your words and theirs, and pick the ones worth the effort for your margin and your capacity.

  3. 3

    Fix the foundations

    Technical faults first, because the cheapest gains are usually there. Then the Business Profile and directory consistency.

  4. 4

    Build the pages

    A page for each thing you do, written to answer the question it is searched for, with a clear next step at the end.

  5. 5

    Publish and earn mentions

    Content goes out on the calendar. Links and mentions are earned from real relationships, not bought.

  6. 6

    Measure, report, adjust

    At the interval agreed at the start we report what moved and what did not, and change the plan when the numbers say so.

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.

Should we have a page for each product or one page per concern?
Both, with different jobs. The product page answers a shopper who has already chosen you, with ingredients, use and size. The concern page catches the one who has not, and links to the products that suit her. Start with the products you sell most.
Can we copy the ingredient descriptions our manufacturer sent?
Not as they are. The same paragraph sits on every brand that manufacturer supplies, and search engines treat it as copied. Rewrite it from your own formula sheet in plain words, and have your formulator check the facts before it goes live.
Do we need a blog?
Only if you will answer real buyer questions, such as how to patch test or how to choose between two shampoos. Generic beauty tips take effort and rarely bring a buyer. Product pages and concern pages come first, then a handful of honest answers.
Who should own the domain and the Search Console login?
The company. Register the domain and the accounts under an email address you control, and add the agency or freelancer as a user. If someone else registered them, move ownership to you now, before the day you need it.
Do we need a licence before we market a soap or a cream?
Cosmetics and Ayurvedic products are both regulated, with rules on licences, labels and claims that differ by product and change over time. Check yours with a regulatory consultant or your contract manufacturer before you print a pack or write a listing. We ask for the licence and test reports at the start, so no copy goes out that the file cannot back.
Should we sell on Nykaa and Amazon before we go to chemists?
Start where your buyer already searches. A hair oil for older buyers moves through chemists and kirana shops, and a serum for younger buyers moves on marketplaces. Pick one channel, let reviews or reorders build, then add the next. Opening everywhere together splits your stock and your attention.
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.
