Disability support NGOs · WhatsApp marketing

Answer a family on the app they already use, in the language they use.

WhatsApp marketing for a disability support NGO is the use of the app for first replies, appointment reminders, parent groups and updates to supporters, with consent from each person. GullySales sets up the account, the replies and the rules for who may message whom.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What WhatsApp marketing means

WhatsApp marketing is sending updates, offers and reminders to customers on the app most Indian buyers already check daily. GullySales sets up business WhatsApp, writes the message templates and keeps the list consented and current.

For disability support NGOs

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

  • “Parents may prefer a message to a call”

    A parent at work or with a child at home may find a call hard to take. A short message in the family's language, answered by a named person, lowers the barrier to asking.

  • “A shared phone is not a system”

    When enquiries go to one staff member's personal number, they disappear on leave or on a change of job. A business account with shared access keeps the thread with the centre.

  • “Parent groups need rules”

    A group of parents can support each other well and can also share private details by mistake. A moderator, clear rules about what to share and an easy way to leave protect everyone.

  • “Updates to supporters need consent”

    Sending messages to a donor or an employer contact requires their agreement to receive them. Each person should be able to stop messages with a single reply.

What we do

What we deliver for disability support NGOs.

The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.

  1. A business account with shared access

    A set-up so more than one staff member can answer, with the centre's name, hours and a short description.

    Result: Enquiries stay with the centre when a staff member is away.

  2. Saved replies in local languages

    Replies for common questions about programmes, timings, fees and the first visit, in the languages your families speak.

    Result: A family gets a clear answer in their own language.

  3. A consent and opt-out record

    A register of who agreed to receive which messages, and how to stop them.

    Result: Nobody is messaged without agreeing to it.

  4. Parent group rules

    A short code of conduct for groups, with a named moderator and a private route for personal matters.

    Result: Groups support families without exposing private details.

  5. Message templates for reminders

    Reminders for assessments and events, written kindly and checked against the platform's current rules.

    Result: Families are reminded without being pressured.

How the result is measured

  • Messages delivered
  • Reply rate
  • Enquiries from WhatsApp

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

What to capture or send

What to send on WhatsApp to a family, an employer or a supporter.

First reply to an enquiry
A short greeting from the named coordinator, a line on what the centre does and a question about the child's age or the person's need. Sent in the family's language.
Appointment details
Date, time, entrance, parking or transport note and a map pin. Sent the day before, with a number for a call if the family cannot manage a message.
Camp or event notice
A message with date, place and who may attend, sent only to people who asked for such notices. Includes a way to opt out.
Document request
A message listing the papers needed and how to hand them in. Warns against sending medical files on a shared phone, and points to a safer route.
Update to supporters
A short note on a programme to supporters who agreed to receive one. Describes the work without a child's face or a fundraising figure.

Who it is for

This is written for these disability support NGOs.

  • Early intervention and therapy centres for children
  • Special schools and learning support centres
  • Vocational training and sheltered workshops
  • Inclusive employment and placement organisations
  • Assistive device and prosthetic fitting charities
  • Organisations for the blind, deaf and hard of hearing
  • Autism, cerebral palsy and intellectual disability associations
  • Rehabilitation and community-based support programmes

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Staff use personal phones with family photographs and clinical files mixed in, so the first step is a separate centre number
  • The centre wants to add every parent to a broadcast group, which exposes their numbers to each other

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

WhatsApp marketing for disability support NGOs: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Describe how the contact list was collected, what people asked to receive, and which messages are currently sent. Include opt-outs and replies when reviewing campaign performance.

Make the scope clear

Agree the audience, message purpose, sending system, and response owner. Separate promotional communication from order or service updates, and check current platform requirements before launch.

Check the work in use

Test the message with a small appropriate audience before wider use. Check links, reply handling, opt-outs, and whether the response leads to a relevant conversation or order.

Know when to change course

Do not use an unexplained contact list as a shortcut to demand. If recipients do not expect the message, resolve the permission and relevance questions before sending.

These are discussion points, not a fixed package. GullySales confirms the deliverables, responsibilities, fee, and term in writing after reading your brief and speaking with you.

How it works

How the whatsapp 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

    Conversation review and priorities

    You share relevant chats and explain where enquiries stall. We agree which questions belong in the first scope and record the available baseline before changes begin.

  2. 2

    App or API decision

    We compare your reply needs with the current setup. You approve the route, including any separate API setup work, before committing to provider costs.

  3. 3

    Contact and content approval

    Your team confirms which contacts have permission and approves the replies. Clinics and other regulated organisations arrange their own compliance review before messages are used.

  4. 4

    Routing and record agreement

    The person responsible for sales confirms ownership rules and required CRM fields. We identify any wider CRM work that needs a separate scope.

  5. 5

    Testing and release approval

    Test conversations check the reply path and human takeover. You approve release after reviewing the messages and sample records.

  6. 6

    Outcome review and changes

    We review unanswered questions and recorded outcomes against the baseline at the agreed reporting points. Changes to replies or routing return to your nominated approver.

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.

Can we add parents to a group without asking?
No. Ask each person first and record their agreement. Adding people unasked is intrusive and can damage trust. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging as well.
Should staff reply from personal phones?
It is better to use the centre's account so threads stay with the centre. Where a personal phone must be used for now, agree a rule on saving the thread to the record and handing it over when staff change.
Can parents share their children's photographs in a group?
Set a rule before the group opens. Say what may be shared, that photographs of other children need their parent's consent, and that the admin can remove a post. Keep a written copy of the rule. Check the platform's current rules on groups.
Can we send awareness material to everyone on the number list?
Only to those who asked to receive it. A family who messaged for an appointment has not agreed to updates. Offer a clear opt-in at the end of the conversation, keep a record of the answer, and include a way to stop at any time.
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.
