Concert organisers · WhatsApp marketing

Answer the fan on the app they already use, and close the ticket there.

WhatsApp marketing for a concert organiser covers the replies, broadcasts and group arrangements that move a fan from interest to a booked ticket. GullySales works on the opt-in, the approved messages and the handover between team members, within the platform's current rules.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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 concert organisers

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

  • “The fan asks, and the answer decides”

    A fan who messages to ask about parking or refunds is close to buying. A slow, unclear or contradictory answer gives the fan a reason to leave, while a clear one with the ticket link finishes the sale.

  • “A group booking is organised in a chat”

    One friend collects names, money and seat preferences in a group, then books. A short message the group leader can forward, with tier details and a link, makes that work easier.

  • “Broadcasts need permission”

    A list built from forwarded numbers brings complaints and blocks. People who agreed to hear about shows read them. Check the platform's current rules on business messaging before you send.

  • “Show day is a messaging day”

    Gates, parking, weather and last entry change in the hours before the show. A single approved message, sent to ticket holders who agreed, keeps phones from filling with the same question.

What we do

What we deliver for concert organisers.

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

  1. A click-to-chat entry on every post and page

    Links and codes that open a chat with the show name and source already filled, so you know where the fan came from.

    Result: Every chat opens with its source recorded.

  2. An approved reply set

    Short answers on tiers, parking, age, refunds, weather and delays, with the person allowed to alter them.

    Result: Whoever is on the phone gives the same answer.

  3. An opt-in flow and a broadcast plan

    A clear request for permission, a record of it and broadcasts planned around price-tier closes and show-day information.

    Result: A permitted list and a plan for each message.

  4. A group leader kit

    A forwardable message with the lineup, tiers, payment link and meeting point for the person who books for friends.

    Result: Group leaders can book without writing from scratch.

  5. A handover rule for the team

    Who answers by time of day, how a chat is passed on and where a promise made in chat is written down.

    Result: A chat never stalls because the person is away.

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

The WhatsApp messages around a show, and what each should carry.

Reply to where to buy and which tier
Send the link, the tier difference and the entry age in one message. Record the tier asked about.
Group booking arrangement
A chat with the group leader holding the head count, the code and the date to confirm. One leader keeps it manageable.
Opt-in for show updates
Record when and how the person agreed and the way to leave. Only these contacts are in the broadcast.
Show-day gate and parking message
Sent to ticket holders only, with the gate, the bag rules and a named contact. Repeat nothing the venue has not said.
Change notice
State what has changed, what stays the same and when the next update will come. Send the same text to everyone at once.

Who it is for

This is written for these concert organisers.

  • Organisers of Bollywood and playback singer nights
  • Indie, rock and electronic music event organisers
  • Classical and ghazal concert organisers
  • Regional language music event organisers, including Kannada, Tamil, Telugu and Punjabi shows
  • College fest and campus concert organisers
  • Open-air festival organisers with multiple stages
  • New Year's Eve and festival-season party organisers
  • Organisers who bring international artists on Indian tours

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You plan to add fans to a group without asking, which earns blocks and reports and loses the channel
  • Only one person holds the show's number, and a chat that stops when they sleep is a chat the fan leaves

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.

Can we add fans to a group without asking?
No. Ask first and give a simple way to leave. People added without asking block or report the number, and that harms it.
Do we need the WhatsApp Business API?
The Business app suits a small team handling modest volume. A larger sale with several agents and automated replies may need the API through a provider; check the current terms before choosing.
What do we say about a show change?
Say what has changed, what stays the same and when the next update will come. Send the same text to everyone so the story does not split across chats.
What if a rumour reaches the chat before our notice?
Reply with the confirmed facts and the time of the next update. Do not argue with the rumour or guess. A fan reads the first calm answer, so a prepared notice for the artist, the date and the venue saves the worst of a bad evening.
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.
