Make a decaying monument something a funder can walk through before they sign.

A conservation architect shows a funder a cracked stone arch, a sketch of how it will be repaired and a budget on a single page. The funder likes it and says they will think. Three weeks later the phone has not rung and the monsoon has begun.

Realistic editorial illustration of temples at work in India

In one paragraph

A heritage conservation organisation works to document, repair and protect old buildings, sites and traditions. Marketing finds its funders, volunteers, visitors and owners of heritage property; sales means winning grants, sponsorships, adopted monuments and paid walks. GullySales builds the site pages, funder pack and enquiry routes that put the work in front of each of them.

Heritage work is slow and its results are hard to photograph, so the same album goes to every enquirer. Funders, owners and walk-goers each want something different, and none of them find it on the page they land on.

How buyers decide

How heritage conservation organizations are chosen.

Funders, whether a company's CSR team, a family foundation or a trust, choose by the site, the credibility of the people doing the work and the way the money is accounted for. They want a plan with stages, a registered body behind it and a clear way to see progress. A project that looks hard to track is hard to approve.

Owners of old havelis, wadas and mansions come to a conservation body when a repair is due or a buyer wants to demolish. They look for people who have handled similar buildings and who understand local rules. Visitors and volunteers pick on the walk, the date and the guide.

The problem

What usually goes wrong for heritage conservation organizations.

What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.

  • “Funders see a beautiful building but not a plan”

    A site gallery is not a conservation proposal. Without stages, a budget and a way to follow progress the funder cannot say yes inside the company.

  • “Our documentation work is invisible”

    Survey drawings, condition reports and oral histories sit with the team. No one outside the office can see how well the team knows its sites.

  • “Owners of old buildings do not know we exist”

    A family with a damaged haveli searches for a repair contractor and never finds a body that guides conservation.

  • “Heritage walks are announced on a single post”

    If someone misses the post they miss the walk. There is no page for dates, meeting point or what to carry.

  • “Volunteers come once and disappear”

    They sign up at a clean-up day with enthusiasm but receive no message afterwards about the next task.

  • “Progress on funded work is not shared”

    A donor who gave last year has no easy way to see what happened, so they have little reason to give again.

What we do

What we do for heritage conservation organizations.

Everything included for heritage conservation organizations.

  1. A project page for every site

    Each site gets a page with its history, condition, the repair plan in stages, what is already done and what is still needed, plus photographs and a contact person.

  2. A funder pack that shows stages and accounts

    A short document listing stages, costs by stage, the team, registered status and how reports will be shared with the donor.

  3. An owner guidance page

    A plain page for owners of heritage houses on what a condition survey involves, who you work with and how to start an enquiry, written in general terms about local rules.

  4. A calendar of walks and events

    One page for dates, meeting points, guide names, group sizes and a route to book.

  5. A volunteer welcome routine

    A message and a task list for each person who signs up, with a record of what they did and what is next.

  6. A story archive of finished work

    Before and after records of repaired structures, with the craft methods and the names of the masons and conservators credited.

How the result is measured

  • Funder proposals sent against pledges received
  • Adopt-a-monument enquiries by site
  • Walk bookings and group sizes
  • Owner enquiries received and followed up
  • Volunteers who return for a second day
  • Project page visits that lead to a proposal request

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

Every service, written for heritage conservation organizations

Each has its own page: what it involves for heritage conservation organizations, what you get, and what it is measured on.

Worth a page and a campaign of their own

Funding for conservation of named sites · Adopt-a-monument and sponsorship programmes · Paid heritage walks and trails · Advisory work for owners and developers · Volunteer days and student internships · Training for craftspeople and masons · Documentation and mapping projects · Publications, exhibitions and talks

Priority campaigns

Campaigns for what heritage conservation organizations most want to sell.

Each one planned around when your buyers decide, and measured against the baseline.

  • Adopt a monument campaign

    A page and outreach to local companies and family foundations, naming sites and the stage each one needs support for.

  • Monsoon preparedness appeal

    A seasonal call for small donations for urgent drainage and roof work on named sites, ahead of the rains.

  • Heritage week and walks

    Local ads, Instagram posts and school outreach for walks held around heritage days.

  • Owner outreach in old quarters

    Letters, resident association visits and local search pages for owners of old buildings in a given neighbourhood.

Beyond search

Where we reach buyers of heritage conservation organizations, beyond Google.

Search matters, but it is rarely the only way this industry's buyers find a supplier.

  • CSR teams and family foundations

    A company or family that has paid for restoration before is shown the one site closest to its interest, with the staged proposal.

  • Architects and engineers

    Architecture colleges and conservation practices are offered site visits and survey help, which is how they come to recommend you to owners.

  • Schools, colleges and history departments

    A history professor or school coordinator planning a field trip needs a date, a guide and a safe route, so the note gives all three.

  • Resident associations and merchants in old quarters

    Traders and residents on the streets where scaffolding goes up hear what is being done and why before the questions start.

  • Travel writers and local press

    A journalist on the heritage or city-history beat receives a short note and photographs of one site, with a conservator to speak to.

Who it is for

This is written for these heritage conservation organizations.

  • Bodies that document and repair monuments and old city quarters
  • Trusts that guide owners of private heritage houses
  • Heritage societies of a single city or town
  • Groups focused on traditional crafts, water systems or step-wells
  • Bodies that run heritage walks and education programmes
  • Industrial and railway heritage groups
  • Temple and stone architecture conservation teams
  • Teams that advise governments and developers on heritage zones

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

How the work runs for heritage conservation organizations

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

    Look at the sites and the support

    Each site's funding position, its past donors and the way people have heard of your work are written down first.

  2. 2

    Write the cases

    Each site gets a plan in stages with costs your own team confirms. Nothing goes up that your conservators have not checked.

  3. 3

    Build the funder and owner routes

    Project pages, the funder pack and the owner guidance page go live with a clear enquiry route.

  4. 4

    Reach funders and the press

    Outreach starts site by site, with each reply recorded and followed up.

  5. 5

    Set replies and bookings beside the first record

    Funder replies, walk bookings and volunteer numbers are set beside the first record, and the next round of outreach is adjusted.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

GullySales builds every engagement from three pieces of sales work. This page is not one of them, but the same three steps apply to the business behind it.

  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

    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 heritage conservation organizations ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can you find us a CSR partner?
We prepare the proposal and approach companies that fund heritage, and we follow up on every reply. A company's decision is its own, and we cannot promise one will sign.
Will you edit our conservation reports?
We turn them into clear pages and funder documents. Your conservators approve every technical statement, and we do not change a finding.
Are there legal rules we should mention on the page?
Rules for protected and listed monuments differ by state and body and change, so check with your own legal or conservation adviser. We keep the pages in general terms.
Can we sell tickets to heritage walks?
Yes. We build the page and the route to your booking method. You decide whether walks are paid, donation based or free.
Is this useful for a small society with one site?
Yes. One site with a clear page and a funder pack is a sound first piece of work.
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?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and we tell you which applies to you after we have spoken. 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?
To start, last month's enquiries in any format and time with whoever handles them. After that, access to the accounts the work touches, such as the website, Google Business Profile or CRM.
