NGOs · Digital marketing
Fix everything that costs only time before you spend a rupee.
Digital marketing for an NGO starts with what costs nothing but attention: the registration status visible, the programme pages current, the enquiry answered the same day. GullySales works through that list before anything is bought, then picks the channel that suits each of your three audiences.
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 NGOs
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Promotion spending has to survive a board meeting”
Every rupee not spent on the programme gets questioned by trustees and by donors. That alone is a reason to start with the work that costs only time.
“A compliance team is a search engine user too”
Before the meeting they check the registration, the annual report and what your name returns. Those three results are most of the digital job for corporate funding.
“Nobody recorded who gave last Deepavali”
A festival appeal brings hundreds of donations and no list you can reach in January, so next year's appeal starts from nothing again.
What we do
What we deliver for NGOs.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A written plan in order of cost
What gets fixed with time, what needs production, what needs money, each with the effect it is expected to have written beside it.
Result: The cheap work happens before the expensive work.
One set of organisation facts used everywhere
Registration position, districts, programme names, team and contact details written once and used on the site, every profile and every proposal.
Result: Nothing a corporate team checks contradicts anything else.
A channel chosen for each audience
LinkedIn and search for the corporate side, Instagram and WhatsApp for individual donors, colleges and local groups for volunteers.
Result: Effort stops being spread evenly over channels that do different jobs.
Appeals scheduled against the year
Festival giving, the weeks before the financial year closes, the academic year and the monsoon relief season marked out with what goes out when.
Result: Appeals are prepared instead of improvised.
A record a trustee can read
Spend, donations, corporate enquiries and volunteer sign-ups on one page, in the language of the board rather than of advertising.
Result: The board can see what promotion produced.
A monthly report against the baseline
Enquiries by programme and source, reply time, commitments signed and renewals due, set against the figures recorded before work started.
Result: You can tell which part of the effort is working.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries across channels
- Cost per enquiry overall
- Channel mix by contribution
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.
Who it is for
This is written for these NGOs.
- Grassroots community NGOs
- CSR implementation partners
- Educational and literacy NGOs
- Healthcare and disability NGOs
- Environmental and animal welfare NGOs

- Women's self-help group and livelihood NGOs
- Old-age and destitute care homes
- Skill-training and livelihood NGOs
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 monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
45 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · Within a few working days
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope and fee come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
06 · Month 3 to 6
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. No twelve-month lock.
How the work runs for NGOs
- 1
Audit the donor and CSR journey
We check how a CSR manager or an individual donor finds you today, whether the 80G and FCRA status is visible, and how fast a donation-page enquiry gets a reply.
- 2
Fix the programme pages
A page for each programme, with the cause, the district, the rupee ask and the current annual report, replacing one general appeal page that serves nobody.
- 3
Put CSR conversations in a CRM
Every corporate enquiry, past partnership and renewal date recorded in one place, so a programme officer's transfer or leave does not lose the relationship.
- 4
Build visibility for the cause
Search and social content built around the specific programme and district, so the NGO is found by the CSR team searching for that exact combination.
- 5
Report on enquiries and commitments
A monthly report of donor and CSR enquiries, how many turned into a commitment, and where in the year renewal conversations are due.
Proof
What happened when owners fixed this.
Real clients, the work we did, and the result as it was recorded. Where no number was recorded, none is claimed.
LL Trust
- Situation
- The trust had no identity of its own, so nothing in how it presented itself distinguished it from comparable organisations competing for the same donors.
- What we did
- Comparable organisations reviewed
- Logo and branding
- A palette that carries the values
- Reviewed with the trust
- Result
- No numbers were recorded for this engagement. The work is described in full in the case study.

- Website rebuilt around patient needs
- Search visibility
- Social media on a schedule
- Review management
- Result

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 monthly 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 lock-in, no guarantees we cannot keep
Three to six months at a time. 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.
#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.
