Win the referring doctor and the patient with a prescription in hand.
A prescription in Hyderabad lists a thyroid test and a lipid profile, and the patient needs home collection the next morning. Two centres get the call. One answers, quotes a price and asks for the address. The other says to come to the centre. The first one gets the booking.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

In one paragraph
A diagnostic franchise network is a pathology and imaging brand that lets independent owners run collection centres or labs under its name and reporting system. Business comes from doctors' referrals, packages and home collection. GullySales prepares the centre-owner enquiry path, each centre's booking routine and its doctor-information plan.
A pharmacist in Kozhikode wants to open a collection centre next to the shop. The questions are about the reference lab, the machines the network provides, how reports reach the patient and what the revenue split is, and whether doctors nearby will send patients to a new brand.

How buyers decide
How diagnostic franchise networks are chosen.
Centre owners are pharmacists, doctors, entrepreneurs with a medical background and existing lab owners joining a bigger brand. They compare networks on the reference lab, the report system, brand trust with doctors, the revenue share and the support for accreditation. How doctors regard the network's reports weighs heavily.
Most patients do not choose a lab from scratch. The doctor writes the test and may name a lab, or the patient asks a family member. Others search for home collection, price and timing, compare health packages, and look for a lab that is close and sends reports on time.
Rules for diagnostic labs, including licences and quality standards, differ by state and body and change. Marketing should avoid claims about accuracy or superiority and keep to services, locations and timings. Each centre should check requirements with its own advisers.
The problem
What usually goes wrong for diagnostic franchise networks.
What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.
“Centre owners ask how doctors will refer to them”
They fear the brand name does not travel to a new locality, and head office has no plan for introducing the centre to doctors.
“Phone enquiries for home collection are lost”
The centre is busy with walk-in patients, and calls about timings or prices are not logged.
“Packages are priced differently at different centres”
A patient sees one price online and another at the counter.
“Reports reach patients late and they complain publicly”
Delays at the reference lab become reviews against the local centre.
“Corporate health check requests go nowhere”
An HR manager asks about an employee camp and the enquiry sits with whoever saw it first.
“Doctors forget the centre after the first visit”
A representative visits once and the next update never reaches the clinic, so the centre slips from the doctor's mind.

How it works
How the work runs for diagnostic franchise networks
The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.
- 1
Trace a prescription to a booking
At one running centre we follow how a patient with a doctor's slip reaches the counter, and which clinics' prescriptions come through the door.
- 2
Write the home collection call
Address, test list, fasting instruction and slot are taken in a fixed order that the counter staff can follow while walk-in patients wait.
- 3
Prepare the doctor introduction sheet
A one-page note of tests, timings and reference lab, plus a record of which doctor was told what, ready for each new centre.
- 4
Put one price on the page and the counter
Package contents, displayed prices and Google listings are matched, so an online price is the one quoted at the counter.
- 5
Set referrals beside bookings
A centre with many doctor prescriptions but few home collections has a different gap from one with the reverse, and the comparison shows which.
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.
