Reach the dealer and the farmer before the pest does.
A cotton farmer walks into the dealer's shop in August holding a leaf with whitefly on the underside. The farmer does not ask for a brand but for what to spray. The dealer's answer is the sale, and the company that trained the dealer, left a demonstration chart on the wall and answered the last query is the one named.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
In one paragraph
Crop protection product company marketing builds a brand for insecticides, fungicides, herbicides and bio-products among dealers, agronomists and farmers. Sales then turns it into dealer stocking, field trials and repeat orders through the crop calendar. GullySales plans the dealer drive, the crop and problem pages and the field follow-up, within what pesticide labels and rules allow.
Crop protection is bought under pressure, on advice, and only for the problem in front of the farmer. Rules govern what you may say and sell, and labels are strict. So the marketing has to teach and the sales has to be in the right place on the right week, without promising what a label does not.

How buyers decide
How crop protection product companies are chosen.
The farmer takes advice from three sources: the dealer, the neighbour and a video found on a phone. The dealer chooses what to recommend from margin, reliability of supply and how well the company's field staff have trained the shop. A product that worked last year and has a name the farmer has heard is recommended again.
Agronomists, KVK scientists and progressive farmers form a second layer. They want trial results, label details and information on resistance and safe use. A company that shares trial data plainly and takes a complaint seriously builds a name that dealers lean on.
Pesticide registration, labelling, licences and permitted claims are controlled by law and differ by state, and the rules change. Every page, video and message must be checked against your own registration and label, and cleared with your regulatory adviser before it goes out.
The problem
What usually goes wrong for crop protection product companies.
What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.
“Dealers recommend whatever has the best margin that week”
Our product is good but the dealer's last visit from our representative was long ago, and a competitor's scheme sheet is on the counter.
“Farmers ask for a brand they saw on a neighbour's field, and we are not on any field”
Without demonstration plots in the belt, we have nothing to point at and the dealer has no story to tell.
“Our literature is a label and nothing else”
Farmers and agronomists search for the problem, such as sucking pest in cotton or blast in paddy. Nothing on our site answers it.
“A bad-spray complaint spreads faster than our reply”
By the time we reach the village, the story on WhatsApp is that our product failed, though the dose or timing may have been wrong.
“Representatives know their dealers but the company does not”
When a representative leaves, the dealer contacts and the credit understanding leave too.
“We do not know which crops and pests drive each region”
Our season plan is the previous year's sales, not a map of where each problem will appear.
What we do
What we do for crop protection product companies.
Everything included for crop protection product companies.
A page for each crop and each problem
Pages built around what the farmer searches, such as a crop stage and the pest or disease, showing the products that apply, label dose in words from the registered label and safe use notes.
Dealer training and recall kit
A short training deck and video for dealers on your products, with a WhatsApp quiz or checklist and a record of who attended.
Demonstration plot plan and record
A list of plots by crop and village, who is hosting, and photographs at each stage, with a field day invite and sign-in.
A complaint log and response rule
A single number for complaints, each case recorded with product, batch, dealer and village, and a named person who visits.
A regional dealer map
A record of dealers by district with brands stocked, credit status and visit history.
Agronomist trial summary
A plain-language summary of trial results for each product, with the crop, site and season written exactly as recorded.
How the result is measured
- Dealers trained and restocked by district
- Farmer enquiries by crop and problem
- Plots hosted and attendees recorded
- Fault and complaint calls by cause
- Repeat orders from distributors
- Dealers who attended product training and then restocked
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Priority campaigns
Campaigns for what crop protection product companies most want to sell.
Each one planned around when your buyers decide, and measured against the baseline.
Pre-season dealer drive
Dealer calls and visits planned ahead of the crop's main pest window, with a training session and a product display kit.
Pest alert content in the local language
Short videos and WhatsApp cards on identifying a pest or disease early, with safe-use and label reminders and the nearest dealer.
Field day campaign
Invitations through dealers, farmer groups and FPOs for a plot visit, with a sign-in and follow-up message.
Agronomist and KVK outreach
A note and trial summary for extension staff and agri college contacts in your belt.
Beyond search
Where we reach buyers of crop protection product companies, beyond Google.
Search matters, but it is rarely the only way this industry's buyers find a supplier.
Input dealers and distributors
The counter owner who hands a farmer a bottle of spray; each shop is listed by district with the competing brands beside yours.
Farmer producer organisations
FPO committees that buy inputs together for members, introduced with the label details and dealer contacts.
Large growers and plantations
Growers of cotton, chilli, grapes and banana, whose spray bills run high, approached directly in your region.
Agronomists and consultants
Independent crop consultants advise the dealer's best customers, so they are sent the trial summary before the season and a request to visit a plot.
KVKs and agricultural universities
Field-day dates and trial information for extension centres, whose staff are asked what to use.

Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
GullySales builds every engagement from three pieces of sales work. This page is not one of them, but the same three steps apply to the business behind it.
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.
Step 2
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
