Healthcare franchise networks · Lead generation

Fill the network's two funnels separately: clinic partners and patients.

Lead generation for a healthcare franchise network means producing two kinds of enquiry that have nothing in common: a doctor or investor asking about a centre, and a patient asking about an appointment. GullySales works on both paths, so each enquiry reaches the right person with a first answer that fits.

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

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 healthcare franchise networks

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

  • “A partner lead and a patient lead need different hands”

    A physiotherapist asking about the equipment package belongs with the development manager. A patient asking about back pain belongs with a centre front desk. When both land in one inbox, one of them waits, and the wait falls on whichever one nobody was watching.

  • “A doctor checks the council line before the brand”

    A clinician considering the network reads the ads first and asks whether a post like that would sit well with their own council. Lead generation aimed at doctors that looks like patient bait loses the clinician before the first call.

  • “The patient lead is local and arrives by phone”

    Someone in Indore with a toothache types the symptom and the locality, then calls the centre that looks nearest. The lead is a phone call, so the work is as much about who picks up as about what the ad said.

  • “A lead without a recorded source teaches nothing”

    Patients say they came on a friend's word, and the record ends there. Head office cannot say which centre's enquiries came from which effort unless every enquiry is logged with how it arrived.

What we do

What we deliver for healthcare franchise networks.

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

  1. Partner enquiry pages for clinicians and investors

    Two landing pages, one for the doctor or therapist and one for the non-clinical investor, each answering the questions that person asks first.

    Result: Two pages live, each with its own enquiry form.

  2. Centre-level patient enquiry paths

    For each centre, a Google profile, a page and a call routine that point to the same address, timings and doctors.

    Result: A patient can reach each centre by one consistent route.

  3. An enquiry log with a source field

    A shared sheet or CRM entry for every partner and patient enquiry, with how it arrived and who owns it.

    Result: Every enquiry has an owner and a recorded source.

  4. A line-by-line advertising brief

    A short document of what lead generation copy may state, reviewed by your own medical and legal advisers before use.

    Result: A cleared brief that centre staff and agencies work from.

  5. Referral logging for local practitioners

    A simple register of which neighbourhood doctor sent a patient, with no payment or incentive attached.

    Result: A register you can read to see which practitioners refer.

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.

What to capture or send

What to record when a clinician or a patient first makes contact.

A network has two kinds of enquiry that look alike on a form. Capture them in separate records, with the source beside each.

Partner's profession and registration body
Dentist, physiotherapist, ophthalmologist or investor. The development manager reads it first to decide which pack and which conversation follow.
City or locality the partner wants to open in
Lets head office check whether a nearby centre exists and whether the area is open before a long call is spent.
Investor or clinician: who will run the centre
A non-clinical investor needs an operating doctor named. The answer decides which questions the development manager asks next.
Patient's reason for calling, in their words
Back pain, toothache, eye check. The front desk records it without clinical detail so the right doctor's slot is offered.
Centre the patient called or tapped
Ties each enquiry to one centre, so head office can read calls against bookings and see which desk loses callers.
How the enquiry arrived
Map tap, search, friend, camp or doctor's note. Without it, attribution ends at a patient saying a friend sent them.

Who it is for

This is written for these healthcare franchise networks.

  • Multi-speciality polyclinic networks
  • Dental clinic franchise chains
  • Eye care and optical clinic networks
  • Physiotherapy and rehabilitation clinic brands
  • Skin, hair and aesthetic clinic networks
  • Women's health and fertility centre networks
  • Dialysis, day-care and ambulatory centre brands
  • Ayurveda and wellness clinic networks

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Each centre has no one to answer the phone with fees and timings, so more patient enquiries would be lost at the desk.
  • The advertising rule book is not yet cleared by your medical and legal advisers, so lead copy could cross the council's limits.
  • Head office has no named development manager for partners, so a clinician's enquiry would wait in a shared inbox.

How it works

How the lead generation 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 your capacity

    We ask how many enquiries your team can answer well, who answers after hours, and what a good enquiry looks like. Without this, the system fills a funnel nobody is watching.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We read your call log, WhatsApp chats, enquiry sheet and platform dashboards. The baseline is recorded: enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Search and maps are chosen for people ready to buy, ads for people who are not yet looking, and content and referrals for trust.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms, tags, the lead record and the first-reply message are built and tested end to end. We submit test enquiries ourselves before any media money is spent.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    Enquiries are traced to source and judged by what became orders, not by volume alone. Channels that fill the sheet with poor enquiries are cut back. How often you are reported to is agreed in writing.

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.

  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 advertise treatment results to get patients?
We write about services, doctors, timings and general education, and leave out results and cure claims. Advertising rules for medical practice differ by profession and state, so check each claim with your own council or adviser.
Should partner and patient leads share one form?
No. The two readers want different things, and a shared form sends a patient's appointment request to the partner team or the reverse. Separate forms keep each enquiry with the person who can answer it.
Can we offer a fee to doctors who refer patients to a centre?
No. Payment or gifts for referrals breach the conduct rules of most medical bodies, and the rules differ by profession and state. Log which practitioner sent each patient and nothing more. Ask your own council or adviser before any arrangement with referrers.
How do we tell a partner enquiry from a patient enquiry on a shared number?
Use two separate forms and two numbers or menu options, so each lands with the right person. A clinician asking about equipment belongs with the development manager, a patient with a centre desk. Mixed inboxes make one of them wait.
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.
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.
