Convention centres · WhatsApp marketing

Answer a venue brief on WhatsApp with the pack, the layout and one named person.

WhatsApp marketing for a convention centre means using the app where organisers already ask for dates and plans, with replies that can be forwarded to a client. GullySales works on the setup, the messages and the rules for who answers.

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 convention centres

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

  • “The agency forwards your reply to the client”

    A coordinator does not keep your answer to themselves. It travels on WhatsApp to the client, so a light pack, a clear layout picture and a name at the end matter more than a polished email.

  • “Inspection logistics run on the chat”

    Gate, time, contact on arrival and who walks the halls are agreed over messages. A confirmation that carries all four removes the calls on the morning of the visit.

  • “A group for the event is not a sales channel”

    When the booking is confirmed, the organiser and the operations team share a group for the event days. Sales messages in that group irritate the people trying to run the event.

  • “A broadcast to people who did not ask is a risk”

    Sending announcements to every number in the phone book can get the account blocked and annoy buyers. Message those who have asked to hear from you, and check the platform's current rules.

What we do

What we deliver for convention centres.

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

    A named business account with the centre's description, address, hours and a catalogue of halls.

    Result: An organiser who messages sees the centre's details at once.

  2. Saved replies for standard briefs

    Saved answers for the rate request, the free dates question, the site visit request and the rules question.

    Result: A team member sends the right answer without retyping.

  3. Labels that follow the pipeline

    Chat labels matched to the stages of the log, such as pack sent, inspection booked and quote sent.

    Result: The chat list shows where every brief stands.

  4. A forwardable venue pack

    A short document and a few layout images made to read well on a phone and pass on to a client.

    Result: The pack opens cleanly on any handset.

  5. An opt-in list of past organisers

    A list of organisers who agreed to hear about open dates and new facilities, with the date they agreed.

    Result: Every number you message has given consent.

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
Should the number be shared by the whole team?
Use one business number, with the app on a shared device or the business tools that allow several staff. Each chat should still have a named owner in the log, so replies come from one person.
Can we send floor plans on WhatsApp?
Yes. Send a plan as an image or a small PDF that opens on a phone, and keep the full pack for email. Check the plan is current before you send it, since the organiser may forward it to the client.
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.
