Retail franchise brands · Website
Give shoppers a locator and candidates a page that answers the real questions.
A website for a retail franchise brand serves shoppers who need the nearest store and candidates who need the terms of opening one. GullySales designs the structure, the locator and the franchise page around those two jobs.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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.

For retail franchise brands
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The locator is hidden or broken”
A shopper types a town and gets a map with no stores, or a list of closed ones. A working locator with address, timings and a click to call is the most useful page the site holds.
“The franchise page reads like an advertisement”
A candidate wants shop size, stock, support and steps. A page of praise with no requirements makes the candidate call, and the call repeats what a page could have told them.
“The site is built for a laptop”
Shoppers and candidates alike view it on a phone, standing in a market. Buttons that are small, forms that are long and maps that load slowly drive them away.
“New stores are added by hand, late”
Opening a store means updating the locator, the profile and the franchise map. When this waits for a developer, shoppers find a store before the site does.
What we do
What we deliver for retail franchise brands.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Site map for two audiences
A structure with a clear path for shoppers and another for candidates.
Result: A map of pages showing both paths.
Store locator build
A searchable list by town with address, timings, map and phone.
Result: A locator a shopper can use on a phone.
Franchise page and form
A page that states shop requirements and a short form that asks the qualifying questions.
Result: A form that records frontage, area and capital.
Store page template
A page for each store, filled from one data sheet.
Result: A new store page created from a single entry.
Update routine
A step list for adding, moving or closing a store on the site.
Result: A checklist owned by a named person.
How the result is measured
- Page load time
- Bounce rate

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
Confirm structure and content
We agree the site's pages and content needs before design begins, drawing on website strategy where it exists.
- 2
Design the site
Every page is designed against your brand identity and checked for how it should convert a visitor.
- 3
Build and test
The site is developed and tested across devices and browsers before anything goes live.
- 4
Load real content
Actual copy, images and information about your business replace placeholder content before launch.
- 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.
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 · you are here
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.
