Talent management agencies · WhatsApp marketing

Send the shortlist, the call time and the reminder where coordinators already read.

WhatsApp marketing for a talent agency is the use of WhatsApp Business for casting requests, shortlists, confirmations and applicant enquiries, since the trade already runs on it. GullySales works on the business profile, the saved replies and the broadcast lists.

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 talent management agencies

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

  • “The trade already lives on WhatsApp”

    Coordinators send briefs there and talent confirm there. The gap is that it runs on personal phones with no shared history, so a colleague cannot see what was promised.

  • “A broadcast to talent needs a list that is kept”

    A call for a casting, sent to the right group, gets responses fast. A list that mixes children, adults and voice artistes wastes everyone's attention and invites opt-outs.

  • “Photos in a chat are not a portfolio”

    A shortlist sent as twenty loose images loses names and details. A single link to a portfolio page, with availability, is easier for the coordinator to forward to a client.

  • “Consent applies to messaging as well”

    People should agree to be on a list and be able to leave it. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging and keep a record of who opted in.

What we do

What we deliver for talent management agencies.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile set up properly

    Business name, description, hours, catalogue of talent types and a link to the sign-up form.

    Result: Buyers and applicants see a business, not a person's number.

  2. Saved replies for the common messages

    Replies for casting requests, applicant enquiries, parents' questions and booking confirmations.

    Result: The team answers in the same words.

  3. Labels for requests and talent

    Labels such as new request, shortlist sent, confirmed, applicant and parent, applied to each chat.

    Result: The inbox can be sorted by stage.

  4. Broadcast lists by talent type

    Lists for children, adults, voice and dancers, built on opt-in and used for casting calls.

    Result: A call reaches only the talent it suits.

  5. A shared inbox arrangement

    A way for more than one team member to see and answer messages, set up on the Business platform or a provider that fits.

    Result: A colleague can cover a missed message.

How the result is measured

  • Messages delivered
  • Reply rate
  • Enquiries from WhatsApp

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

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.

Tell us what you need
Can we send promotional messages to buyers?
Only to people who have agreed, and within the platform's current rules. Business-to-business messaging still needs a clear reason and a way to opt out.
Should talent be in a group chat?
Large groups blur private details and invite noise. Broadcast lists keep each person's number private and each message targeted.
Do we need the WhatsApp Business API?
A small agency can start with the Business app. The API suits larger teams that want several users and automation, and GullySales helps weigh that.
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.
