LegalTech startups · WhatsApp marketing

Answer the price question on WhatsApp so the order does not end there.

WhatsApp marketing for a LegalTech startup is the use of WhatsApp Business for enquiries, order updates and trial support, mainly where individuals and small firms buy online legal services. GullySales works on the replies, the order flow and the consent behind every message.

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 LegalTech startups

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

  • “The price question is where orders are lost”

    A founder asks the cost of a registration or an agreement, receives a PDF and goes quiet. The reply that states scope, what a person reviews and what comes next keeps the conversation.

  • “A lawyer's WhatsApp is personal space”

    Cold messages to advocates on WhatsApp land badly, and rules on how lawyers are approached differ from ordinary business. For firms, a phone number is better used after an introduction than before one.

  • “Documents sent over chat raise confidentiality worries”

    A buyer asked to send identity or company papers on WhatsApp may hesitate. A clear line on what to send, where to upload it and who sees it removes that worry.

  • “Trial support fits chat well”

    A clerk stuck on the first upload would rather type a question than book a call. A named support number with a plain answer keeps the trial alive.

What we do

What we deliver for LegalTech startups.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business setup for enquiries

    A business profile, greeting, quick replies and labels for enquiry, quoted, paid and stalled.

    Result: Each enquiry has a label you can filter.

  2. Price and scope replies

    Message templates that state scope, the human review step and a next action.

    Result: A price question gets a complete answer.

  3. A secure document route

    Wording that sends buyers to an upload link and not a chat attachment.

    Result: Buyers know where documents go.

  4. A trial support line

    A named number and rota for first-session questions from associates and clerks.

    Result: Trial users have somewhere to ask.

  5. A consent record

    Opt-in noted for every contact before broadcast or update messages.

    Result: You can show when and how each contact agreed.

How the result is measured

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.

Can we send broadcasts to law firms?
Only to contacts who agreed to receive them, and check the platform's current rules. For firms, a personal introduction first is more welcome than a bulk message.
Should we use the WhatsApp API or the Business app?
The Business app suits a small volume of enquiries. The API suits higher volume with several agents. We match the choice to how many conversations you handle.
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.
