Cinema halls and multiplexes · WhatsApp marketing

Answer group bookings and send the week's titles to people who asked for them.

WhatsApp marketing for a cinema hall covers two jobs: replying to group and private booking enquiries, and sending the week's films to regulars who chose to receive them. GullySales works on the business profile, the reply templates and the opt-in list.

Cinema staff reviewing screening and ticket information

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 cinema halls and multiplexes

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

  • “The enquiry is already on WhatsApp”

    Birthday hosts, school coordinators and office organisers message the hall there because it is the app they use daily. A hall with no business profile or saved replies answers slowly and inconsistently.

  • “A catalogue and quick replies shorten the answer”

    A business profile with the hall's hours, address, rate sheet and common answers lets the desk reply in seconds. The buyer sees a business, not a personal number.

  • “A broadcast list works only with consent”

    Regulars who asked for the week's titles welcome the message. A list built by adding people without asking invites blocks, reports and a damaged number.

  • “Check the platform's current rules”

    WhatsApp sets its own rules for business messaging, templates and opt-in. The hall should read the current rules before starting a campaign, and GullySales follows them in set-up.

What we do

What we deliver for cinema halls and multiplexes.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile for the hall

    Name, address, hours, website link and a short description set up correctly.

    Result: The buyer sees a business account with the right details.

  2. Saved replies for common questions

    Answers for private screening, price, parking, food and refunds, ready to send.

    Result: The desk replies the same way in every chat.

  3. A catalogue of services

    Private screening options, combos and event hire listed with plain descriptions.

    Result: A buyer can browse before asking.

  4. An opt-in route for film alerts

    A form, a poster or a message that lets regulars choose to receive the week's titles.

    Result: Every name on the alert list agreed to be there.

  5. A message plan for the alert list

    A short template for new releases, special shows and offers, sent at a rhythm the hall can keep.

    Result: The list gets useful messages and not noise.

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.

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

    Understand current WhatsApp use

    We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.

  2. 2

    Audit common questions

    We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.

  3. 3

    Set up automation and templates

    An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

  4. 4

    Connect to the CRM

    Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track response time and conversion, refining automated responses based on what customers actually ask.

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
Is it fine to message everyone who booked a ticket?
No. A ticket purchase through an app does not mean the buyer agreed to hear from the hall on WhatsApp. Ask for consent in a clear way, keep a record of it and let people leave the list easily.
Who should answer WhatsApp for the hall?
A named person on each shift, using a shared business number and not personal phones. A manager steps in for group quotes. The aim is a reply that does not depend on who is free.
What should a broadcast contain?
The titles, the languages and a booking link, with one short line of local interest. Skip long forwards and promotions the buyer did not ask for.
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.
