What WhatsApp marketing means

WhatsApp marketing is sending updates, offers and reminders to customers on the app most Indian buyers already check daily. GullySales sets up business WhatsApp, writes the message templates and keeps the list consented and current.

For plastic extrusion companies

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

  • “Dealers order by message at the counter”

    A dealer short of a size sends a message to the first extruder in their phone. A saved catalogue and a ready reply decide whether that message becomes an order.

  • “A price list as a long forwarded PDF goes stale”

    Forwarded rate documents travel for weeks after the rate has changed. A dated note with a validity line prevents the factory from being held to an old figure.

  • “Personal numbers mix business with family”

    Quotes sent from a personal phone are lost when the person changes handset or role. A business number with labels and a catalogue keeps the record with the factory.

  • “Broadcasts need permission and a purpose”

    Messaging people who never asked irritates dealers and risks the number. Lists built from buyers who agreed to receive updates, with a clear reason for each message, hold up.

What we do

What we deliver for plastic extrusion companies.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile for the factory

    Name, address, product catalogue and quick replies set up on a business number.

    Result: A dealer sees the factory and its range on first contact.

  2. A size-wise catalogue inside WhatsApp

    Products listed with sizes and colours, plus a link to the full sheet.

    Result: A dealer can pick a size without a call.

  3. Dealer and fabricator broadcast lists

    Lists kept separate by buyer type, built from people who agreed to receive updates.

    Result: Each message reaches the buyers it concerns.

  4. Reply templates for common asks

    Ready answers for rate, stock, sample and dispatch questions, with space for the date.

    Result: Every first reply carries the same complete terms.

  5. A record of conversations that became orders

    A note in the enquiry sheet when a chat leads to a quote or lot.

    Result: The owner sees how many orders begin on WhatsApp.

How the result is measured

  • Messages delivered
  • Reply rate
  • Enquiries from WhatsApp

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

What to capture or send

Send the dealer the rate and stock note in a form that can be checked.

Size-wise rate list
A short message per product family with the date at the top. A long forwarded PDF goes stale, and a dated note shows the dealer whether the rate still holds.
Stock position by size
A line on which sizes are in stock and which are on the line. Dealers order by message and ask this first.
Sample request from a fabricator
Ask for the section code, the colour and the delivery address. Record it, and send the dispatch note with the courier details.
Order confirmation
Repeat the size, quantity, rate and delivery town in one message, so a dealer's reply becomes the written record of the order.
Dispatch note
Send the vehicle number and the expected arrival day when a lot leaves the yard. The dealer can then plan unloading.

Who it is for

This is written for these plastic extrusion companies.

  • PVC and HDPE pipe extruders
  • Agricultural drip and irrigation pipe makers
  • Electrical conduit and cable duct extruders
  • uPVC window and door profile extruders
  • Plastic sheet and board extruders
  • Tube and hose extruders
  • Edge band and trim profile makers
  • Co-extrusion and multilayer sheet specialists

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • The owner will not stop using a personal number, so the business profile would be empty while real orders stay on the phone.
  • Dealers in your region place orders by phone call only, and have not asked for messages, so a broadcast would be unwelcome.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

WhatsApp marketing for plastic extruders: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Describe how the contact list was collected, what people asked to receive, and which messages are currently sent. Include opt-outs and replies when reviewing campaign performance.

Make the scope clear

Agree the audience, message purpose, sending system, and response owner. Separate promotional communication from order or service updates, and check current platform requirements before launch.

Check the work in use

Test the message with a small appropriate audience before wider use. Check links, reply handling, opt-outs, and whether the response leads to a relevant conversation or order.

Know when to change course

Do not use an unexplained contact list as a shortcut to demand. If recipients do not expect the message, resolve the permission and relevance questions before sending.

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.

Before we start

What to have ready before the work starts.

The records, access and decisions this work needs from plastic extrusion companies. Anything missing is noted in the written scope, with who will supply it.

A company number kept for the factory
The business number should be one the factory controls, ideally a separate SIM that sits at the sales desk. A personal number mixes family and trade, and its history leaves with the person. If none exists, setup waits until a number is bought and the first messages are moved across.
A sample of recent dealer chats
Screenshots with names hidden show how dealers ask. A handful is enough. Without them replies are built from general habit. Include a chat where a dealer sent a photograph of a profile or section, as those show what detail the first reply must ask for.
The current size-wise rate sheet
The latest sheet lets us build the catalogue and replies from stock you really hold. If it is stale, catalogue items wait. Include the stock position for each size on the day, since a dealer will ask about it first.
A consent record for the broadcast list
Dates and reasons for each dealer protect them and you. A sheet is fine. Without it, no broadcast is sent. A dealer who gave a number for orders only should not be added to a promotional list.
A second person to cover the number
A second person must read and reply when the first is away. Without cover, a dealer's message waits and the order goes elsewhere. Name the person and the hours, and tell dealers who is on the number.

How it works

How the whatsapp marketing 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

    Read the dealer chats about rates

    With the owner's permission, we look at a sample of the WhatsApp chats with dealers and fabricators, names hidden. We note how they ask for a rate, what they send, and where replies slow down. This shows what the channel must handle. We also note the hours when dealers write, so the away message and cover fit those hours.

  2. 2

    Choose the app or a connected setup

    We explain the options and you decide. A small desk starts on the WhatsApp Business app on a company number. A larger desk with several people replying may need a connected setup. The choice follows how many people must reply. Whichever is chosen, the number stays in the factory's name, and the chat history is kept where the desk can reach it.

  3. 3

    Approve who goes on the broadcast list

    You and the sales head choose the dealers and fabricators who have agreed to receive rate and stock updates, and for what reason. We record the date and reason for each and set a simple opt-out. Buyers who have not agreed stay off. Contacts are grouped by dealer, fabricator and contractor, so a message about a profile does not reach a dealer who stocks only pipe.

  4. 4

    Build the size-wise catalogue in the app

    We set up the catalogue inside WhatsApp Business by product and size, with photographs from your own stock. You check each item against the datasheet. The rate stays out of the catalogue, since it changes, and goes in the reply. Photographs are taken from your own stock, not from a supplier's brochure, and each is labelled with the size.

  5. 5

    Write the saved replies for common asks

    We write replies for the usual asks: a rate for a size, a stock position, a sample, a delivery town. Each reply asks the detail the desk needs. The sales head edits them. A saved reply always ends in a question the dealer can answer. The estimator or the sales head records where a conversation that becomes an order is entered, so a dealer's history is not lost when staff change.

  6. 6

    Release and read the chats that became orders

    We test the number, the profile and the replies as a dealer would, then release. Later we review the conversations with the sales head, matching those that became orders to the counts taken before, and decide what to change.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. 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.

Tell us what you need
Can we send rate lists to all dealers at once?
Yes to dealers who agreed to receive them. Check the platform's current rules before sending broadcasts, and keep each message dated and useful.
Should we use a personal number?
A business number is better. It keeps conversations, the catalogue and labels with the company rather than with one person.
Does WhatsApp replace the call?
No. It carries the catalogue, rate and confirmation, and the call still closes a larger lot or a new dealer.
Do dealers want the rate list every day?
Not unless they have asked for it. Send the list to dealers who agreed to receive it, with the date at the top, and send a new one when the resin position changes. A dealer who gets noise mutes the number.
Should the dealer see the catalogue price?
Not as a fixed figure in the catalogue. Rates change with resin, with quantity and with the dealer, so a printed figure goes stale and may be shown to other dealers. The catalogue holds the sizes, the photographs and the specification, and the rate is sent in the reply to a dealer's message. If you want a standard list rate for small lots, that is your decision, and we write the reply to match it. A short, factual reply that answers the question is welcome, and a long reply with an attachment nobody asked for is not.
What happens when a dealer sends a message in the evening?
An away message tells the dealer the factory has the enquiry and will reply when the desk opens, and asks for the size and quantity if missing. Staff are not expected to answer late. Dealers order at the counter during the day, so a clear reply the next morning is acceptable. We write the away message and set the hours with you, and you decide when the desk is attended. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging before any promotional message is sent, since those rules change.
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.
