TravelTech startups · Lead generation

Bring in travellers and suppliers who match the trips you can actually deliver.

Lead generation for a TravelTech startup means attracting people who want the trips, stays or tools you offer, and also the hotels, guides and companies that make the offer possible. GullySales works on the enquiry sources, the questions asked at first contact and the record that links each lead to a paid booking.

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For TravelTech startups

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

  • “A lead who wants a destination is not yet a lead for your trip”

    Someone who watches a reel about Spiti has not asked for your Spiti package. The first message decides whether the viewer becomes an enquiry, so the offer must name the route, the group type and the dates in the same frame as the reel.

  • “Travellers, suppliers and companies are three lead streams”

    A weekend traveller, a homestay owner who might list with you and an HR head planning an offsite each need a different first conversation. Mixing them in one enquiry list hides which stream is filling the calendar and which is only filling the inbox.

  • “The group chat is the real decision maker”

    A couple or a friends group rarely books on the first visit. One person collects the enquiry and carries the plan back to others, so the lead material must be easy to forward and must answer the question the group will ask next.

  • “Quiet months need their own lead source”

    If every lead comes from long-weekend ads, the business goes silent when the weekend passes. Past travellers, workation seekers and company planners can be reached in the gaps, but only if their details were saved at the time they booked.

What we do

What we deliver for TravelTech startups.

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

  1. A lead source list by stream

    A written list of where leisure, supplier and corporate leads each arrive, with a note on what each source asks and what it does not.

    Result: The owner can name the source behind each of the last several bookings.

  2. A first-contact question set

    Three or four questions for every new enquiry, covering dates, group, budget and the mood of the trip, written to sound like a travel friend and not a form.

    Result: Every enquiry has dates and group type recorded before a price is sent.

  3. Forwardable trip summaries

    A one-screen description of a trip with the route, stay, what is included and the refund rule, made to be pasted into a group chat.

    Result: A traveller can share the plan without retyping it.

  4. A supplier invitation message

    A short approach for hotels, homestays and guides explaining what you send them and how payouts work.

    Result: A list of suppliers who replied, kept beside the routes they serve.

  5. Lead-to-booking tracking

    A sheet or CRM view where every lead carries a source, a stage and a final status of booked, lost or waiting.

    Result: The owner sees which source produced paid bookings and which only produced messages.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

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

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the lead generation work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your capacity

    We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Should we chase corporate leads and leisure leads together?
Run them as separate lists with separate first messages. The leisure buyer decides in a group chat, while the corporate buyer needs approvals and an invoice. One shared message serves neither buyer well.
Do we need paid ads to get leads?
Not always. Past travellers, partner communities and search for specific routes may be enough to start. Paid ads suit a route with open seats and a clear offer, and we judge each by the bookings it records.
How do we handle leads who ask for a price and vanish?
Send the price with a choice of two plans and a question about dates, then follow up on the day the traveller said they would decide. We write that routine so the founder is not guessing each time.
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.
