Skill development NGOs · Lead generation

Fill the next batch with trainees who can actually reach the centre and finish the course.

Lead generation for a skilling NGO means finding the young people, parents and employers who fit a specific course and a specific start date, and keeping a record of each one. GullySales works on the course pages, the enquiry routes and the register that turns a first message into a seat in the batch.

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For skill development NGOs

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

  • “A seat is filled by a family, not by one person”

    The trainee may be a young adult, yet a parent, an elder sibling or a neighbour decides whether the course is worth a bus fare. A message that speaks only to the trainee misses the person who says yes at home.

  • “Three kinds of lead need three different replies”

    A trainee wants a fee, a start date and a route. An employer wants to know which trade the batch trains and when trainees are ready. A CSR team wants a programme and a batch size. One generic reply to all three answers none of them.

  • “An enquiry with no source recorded cannot be repeated”

    If nobody notes whether the call followed a poster, a school visit or a forwarded message, the next admission drive repeats everything, including the poster nobody read.

What we do

What we deliver for skill development NGOs.

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

  1. A lead register with a source column

    Name, phone, course interest, who they are (trainee, parent, employer, funder), where they heard of the centre and the next call date.

    Result: Every enquiry shows where it came from and who must call next.

  2. One reply per kind of enquirer

    A short written answer for trainees, one for employers and one for CSR teams, each with the single next step.

    Result: Counsellors answer from one agreed text instead of improvising.

  3. Course pages written for a family

    Fee or scholarship terms, distance, next start date, what the first month is like, and a WhatsApp button.

    Result: A parent can decide on the page before phoning.

  4. Referral routes through schools and local leaders

    A short note and flyer for teachers, ward workers and self-help group leaders, with a clear way to send a name.

    Result: The people families already ask have something to pass on.

  5. A drop-out note at each stage

    A column for those who asked, those who visited, those who joined and the reason given when someone did not.

    Result: The leak in the funnel is visible in the register.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

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

How it works

How the lead generation 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 your capacity

    We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. 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
Should we advertise to young people directly?
Where a platform's current rules allow, a post aimed at young people can work, but add a line for parents. Check each platform's current rules, and send every response to the same WhatsApp number so the register stays complete.
How do we handle an enquiry about a course that is full?
Record the person against the next batch and tell them the date in the reply. A name held for the next start is a lead kept; a closed door is a lead lost.
Can you promise a number of enrolments?
No. We build the routes and the record; enrolment depends on the course, the fee terms, the location and how your team replies.
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.
