News media companies · Website

Give the reader a clear front page and the advertiser a page that sells space.

A website for a news media company serves two visitors at once: the reader looking for stories and the advertiser looking for rates and proof. GullySales works on the advertise page, the subscribe route and the structure that keeps the site clear for both.

What website means

A website is the page a customer lands on after searching, clicking an advert or scanning a code, and it decides whether they call or leave. GullySales builds and maintains sites that load quickly, explain the offer plainly and make the enquiry form or phone number easy to find.

Sales and marketing for news media companies, the overview.

For news media companies

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

  • “The advertise page is missing or buried”

    An advertiser who finds no link to rates or contacts moves to the outlet that shows them. A page that lists formats, readership and one way to book answers before the call.

  • “Clutter pushes the reader away”

    Pop-ups, autoplay video and too many banners drive readers off a local site. Advertisers see the same page and judge the placement by what they see.

  • “A subscribe route must start at the story”

    A reader moved by a council report is ready to pay now. The prompt belongs beside the story, with a short plan and UPI payment, not on a separate page found later.

  • “Phones carry the traffic”

    Most local readers arrive on a mobile in a slow network. A heavy page loses them before the headline loads, so weight and layout are decided for the phone first.

What we do

What we deliver for news media companies.

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

  1. An advertise page

    Formats, readership summary, sample ads and a booking form or WhatsApp button on a single page.

    Result: A link the ad team can send.

  2. A media kit download

    The rate card and audience summary as a file linked from the advertise page.

    Result: One file for agencies.

  3. A subscribe route

    A short plan page, a prompt on stories and a payment step that works on a phone.

    Result: A reader can pay in a few taps.

  4. A layout review for readers

    Banner placement, pop-ups and video behaviour reviewed with your editor and ad head.

    Result: A site that serves readers without losing advertisers.

  5. Topic and section pages

    Standing pages for recurring local issues, linked from the menu.

    Result: Readers find a topic without searching.

  6. Mobile and speed check

    Pages tested on a typical phone connection and the heaviest items listed.

    Result: A list of changes ranked by effect.

How the result is measured

  • Page load time
  • Bounce rate
  • Enquiries from the website

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works

How the website 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

    Confirm structure and content

    We agree the site's pages and content needs before design begins, drawing on website strategy where it exists.

  2. 2

    Design the site

    Every page is designed against your brand identity and checked for how it should convert a visitor.

  3. 3

    Build and test

    The site is developed and tested across devices and browsers before anything goes live.

  4. 4

    Load real content

    Actual copy, images and information about your business replace placeholder content before launch.

  5. 5

    Launch and hand over access

    The site goes live with domain, hosting and content management access clearly handed to you.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. 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
Do we need to rebuild the site?
Often the fix is a few pages and a change in layout, not a new site. Review what you have before deciding.
Should we put prices on the advertise page?
That is your commercial call. Publishing a starting rate saves wasted calls, while keeping rates by quote suits a varied menu. Decide with your ad head.
Can we show audience numbers on the site?
Only figures you can show from your own platforms, with the date. Do not post a number you could not defend to an advertiser.
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.
