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 sports associations

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

  • “Each channel runs alone”

    The website has old fixtures, the Facebook page has new ones and the WhatsApp group has the real ones. A family finds three versions of the schedule and trusts none.

  • “Paid reach is the last step, not the first”

    A boosted post for a tournament with no entry form sends interested parents to a dead end. The form, the page and the message route come first; spend follows once people can act.

  • “Sponsor visibility is also digital”

    A title sponsor now expects a mention online. A plan that places the name on the website, the scoreline and the photographs lets the proposal promise placements that can be shown.

  • “The committee changes yearly”

    A plan held in one person's head ends at the annual meeting. A written plan with a calendar, owners and logins by role carries the work to the next team.

What we do

What we deliver for sports associations.

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

  1. A channel map

    A one-page list of which channel carries entries, fixtures, results and sponsor mentions.

    Result: Each message has one home and the others point to it.

  2. A season plan

    The calendar from registration to prize giving, with the posts, messages and pages due at each stage.

    Result: The committee sees what is due before it is due.

  3. A single source for the fixture

    One master fixture page that the posts and messages link to.

    Result: A change is made once and read everywhere.

  4. A sponsor placement list

    Every digital placement promised and a place to record that it was delivered.

    Result: The sponsor report is assembled from the list.

  5. A handover file

    Logins by role, templates and the calendar, stored where the next committee can reach them.

    Result: Work continues across a change of office-bearers.

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 advertising spend?
Not to begin. Spend is worth considering once the entry form and page work and you have a clear audience, such as parents in one locality. Check the platform's current rules on promoting events.
What should come first for a small league?
The entry form and fixtures page, then the message routes. Social posts and paid reach come after parents can act on what they see.
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.
