Community development NGOs · Digital marketing

Join website, search, messages and email into one plan for funders and neighbours.

Digital marketing for a community NGO is the combined use of the website, search, social posts, email and messaging to be found and understood by funders, officials and residents. GullySales works on choosing which channel does which job and recording the results from your own data.

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 community development NGOs

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

  • “Channels are run in isolation”

    The website says one thing, the social page another and the funder email a third. A reader who checks two of them finds that the details do not match.

  • “The audience online is not the community”

    Funders and volunteers live online while some residents do not. A plan that treats everyone as a smartphone user fails the people the work is for.

  • “Spending without purpose wastes goodwill”

    A boosted post with no clear action, or an advert to a general audience, brings clicks and no conversation. A named purpose, such as a volunteer day, gives the money a task.

  • “Nobody reads the results”

    Statistics come from several dashboards that no one in a small team has time to open. A short list of questions that the team actually asks keeps measurement useful.

What we do

What we deliver for community development NGOs.

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

  1. A channel plan

    A one-page plan stating the job of the website, search, social media, email and messaging, with an owner for each.

    Result: Every channel has a purpose and a person.

  2. A consistent set of facts

    One approved description of each project and area used across all channels.

    Result: A reader finds the same facts everywhere.

  3. A small advertising test

    If the board agrees, a limited spend on one clear purpose, with the rules checked and the result read honestly.

    Result: A written note on what the test did and did not bring in.

  4. A simple measurement sheet

    A short list of the enquiries, visits and registrations you care about, taken from your own records.

    Result: The director reads one page of results.

  5. Email updates for funders

    A short written update shared with funders and partners, using an address list built from consent.

    Result: Funders hear from you before they have to ask.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries across channels
  • Cost per enquiry overall
  • Channel mix by contribution

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

How it works

How the digital 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

    Understand the objective

    We agree the one thing this campaign needs to achieve before choosing any channel.

  2. 2

    Audit available channels

    We assess which channels are realistic to run well within the budget and timeline.

  3. 3

    Strategise the central idea

    One message and offer is developed that will work across every planned channel.

  4. 4

    Implement across channels

    Each channel receives its own adapted version, launched on a shared timeline.

  5. 5

    Measure as one campaign

    Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.

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
Do we need to run adverts?
Not necessarily. An NGO can gain more from clear pages and good follow-up. If you advertise, check the platform's current rules for your cause.
How do we reach people offline?
Digital planning includes the offline route: wall notices, voice notes, meetings. We plan both so the community is not left out.
How will we know it works?
By your own records: enquiries, visits and registrations by source. We promise no particular result and show you what the data says.
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.
