Astrologers · WhatsApp marketing

Take birth details on WhatsApp and answer before the two families meet.

WhatsApp is where a family sends birth details, asks the fee and confirms the sitting, so it works as your booking desk. GullySales sets up WhatsApp Business with saved replies, an intake list and a consent-based update list, and checks the platform's current rules before anything goes out in bulk.

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 astrologers

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

  • “The photograph of a handwritten chart”

    The first message may be a blurred photograph of a horoscope with no birth time on it. A saved reply that asks politely for what is missing turns that into a sitting, instead of a long exchange of half answers.

  • “One number, several hands”

    A busy practice has an assistant, a family member and the astrologer all answering the same number. Without labels and a shared way of recording, two people reply differently, or nobody replies at all.

  • “A forwarded message reaches the elders”

    A reply sent to the daughter is passed on to the parents. Write it so that an elder reading it in their own language, with no context, understands the fee, the time and what to bring.

What we do

What we deliver for astrologers.

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

    Name, tradition, languages, consulting hours, the area you sit in and a short description, with a catalogue listing each consultation and its fee.

    Result: A family sees who you are before the first message.

  2. Saved replies for the common questions

    The fee, what to bring, how a sitting runs and how a family abroad books, written in the languages you answer in.

    Result: The same clear answer reaches every family.

  3. A birth details intake message

    A short list asking date, time and place of birth for each person, the occasion, the language and the date by which an answer is needed.

    Result: Details arrive complete.

  4. Labels for stage and occasion

    Each chat marked as new, details received, booked, sat or closed, with the occasion beside it.

    Result: You see at a glance who is waiting for you.

  5. A consent-based update list

    Families who agreed to hear about the regional new year, festival dates or annual consultations, with a note of when they agreed and an easy way to leave.

    Result: Updates go only to families who asked.

  6. A routine for who answers and when

    Consulting hours stated, an away message outside them and a note of who replies to which kind of message.

    Result: A message outside sitting hours is still acknowledged.

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.

What to capture or send

Collect birth details in a way that spares the family a second request.

Name, date, time and place of birth
A single intake message listing every item, so the family sends them together rather than across days. Missing items are marked for a later ask.
Photograph of a handwritten chart
Ask for a clear picture and the language written on it. Elders send the family's own chart, and you need to read it before any sitting.
Who is sending and for whom
A line asking if the details are for the sender or a relative, since one phone is shared by several people and the chart belongs to someone else.
Preferred language and time of day
Recorded on the first reply. It lets you answer in the language the family trusts and call when the household is free.
Consent to updates
A plain question on whether the family wants occasion reminders. Without a yes, nothing beyond the consultation is sent.

Who it is for

This is written for these astrologers.

  • Vedic astrologers and jyotishis with a family practice
  • Astrologers attached to temples or maths
  • KP astrology practitioners
  • Nadi astrology centres
  • Numerologists
  • Tarot readers
  • Palmists and face readers
  • Online astrologers consulting across cities and abroad
  • Muhurta and panchanga specialists

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • One number is shared by several people and nobody has agreed who answers, so a business profile would only make the confusion visible
  • You plan to send chart readings or predictions as broadcast messages, which this page will not write
  • You have added families to a list without asking them, and a message from an unexpected number breaks the discretion they expect

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

    Read the chats you already have

    We read how customers write to you, which questions repeat and where a chat goes quiet. The repeated questions decide what gets automated first.

  2. 2

    Sort the list and the permission

    Contacts who asked to hear from you are separated from numbers that only sit in a phone book. We agree the wording new contacts will see before they say yes.

  3. 3

    Choose the app or the API

    One phone and a small team can stay on the ordinary app. Several people on one number, templates or a CRM link need the API through a provider, which is its own piece of setup work.

  4. 4

    Write the replies and the plan

    The greeting, away message, saved replies and handover rule are written in your words and approved by you. The message plan and its templates follow.

  5. 5

    Connect the record and test

    Each link carries its source line and each chat lands in the CRM. We test on real phones, including a customer who asks for a person.

  6. 6

    Read the unanswered questions

    A question the first reply could not answer becomes a new saved reply or a fixed handover. Stop requests are watched too, with the number's quality rating where the API is used, since both show a message plan that has gone too far.

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
Should we use the ordinary app or the Business app?
The Business app suits a practice of this size, with a profile, saved replies, labels and an away message. An approved provider's interface matters only when many people must answer one number. Check the platform's current rules before choosing.
Can we add families to a broadcast list ourselves?
No. Add a family only after they agree, and record when. Unwanted messages about a private matter annoy the family and can get the number restricted. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging before any bulk send.
Should we send chart readings over WhatsApp?
Send notes or a chart only to the person who booked, after the sitting, in the form they asked for. Never post a reading in a group, and do not give an opinion in a chat before the consultation has taken place.
Why should we not send chart readings over WhatsApp?
A reading shared on a chat can be forwarded to people the family did not intend. Birth details are personal, so give the reading in the sitting or in a private note. Check the platform's current rules before sending anything from a broadcast.
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.
