Wedding planners · Pay per click advertising

Pay for the search that names a city and a date, not for decor ideas.

Pay per click advertising for a wedding planner buys the few searches carrying real intent, such as a planner in a destination city. GullySales blocks the students, the vendors and the idea-hunters, and tracks which click reached a family meeting instead of a saved reel.

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

What pay per click advertising means

Pay per click advertising (PPC) is paying a fee each time someone clicks your advert on Google or another platform. It puts you at the top of a search page immediately, instead of waiting for ranking to build. GullySales sets the targeting, writes the ad text and checks spend against enquiries received.

For wedding planners

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

  • “Wedding keywords are the most polluted in the country”

    Decoration ideas, planning courses, vendor jobs, mehendi designs. None of that traffic will hire anybody, and all of it lands on the same words you want.

  • “One booking pays for a year of clicks”

    A single wedding is worth what a shop earns in months, which is why a high click cost can still work here as long as the qualification is tight.

  • “The season decides the switch”

    Enquiries for the winter muhurtas come during the monsoon. Spend then, and cut it once your calendar for those dates is full.

  • “Families abroad are a separate campaign”

    A family in London or Dubai searching for a planner in India needs its own wording, its own hours and a different price for the click.

What we do

What we deliver for wedding planners.

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

  1. Campaigns by destination and wedding type

    Separate campaigns for each city you work in and for destination, intimate and traditional weddings, each with a landing page of its own.

    Result: Spend follows the weddings you want to run.

  2. A negative keyword list for a polluted market

    Courses, jobs, decoration ideas, mehendi designs, invitation templates and vendor searches blocked before they take clicks.

    Result: The budget stops paying for people planning nothing.

  3. Budget qualification inside the advert and the form

    Copy that states the range you work in, and a form asking date, city, guest count and budget before anything else.

    Result: Your team stops replying to enquiries it cannot serve.

  4. Scheduling set against the muhurta calendar

    Spend raised in the months families fix dates for the winter muhurtas, and cut once those dates are booked out.

    Result: Money is in the market while decisions are being made.

  5. A campaign written for families overseas

    Search campaigns aimed at families abroad, with meeting slots across time zones and pages about planning a wedding remotely.

    Result: Enquiries arrive from families who plan early and decide fast.

  6. Click to family meeting reported

    Clicks, enquiries, meetings held and advances received for each campaign, set against the enquiry mix before the adverts started.

    Result: You know the cost of a booking rather than of a click.

How the result is measured

  • Cost per click
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries from paid search

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

Searches to bid on and block

The searches worth paying for as a wedding planner, and the ones to keep out.

Planner plus city, such as wedding planner in Jaipur
Bid. A family searching with the city is shortlisting. Keep each city you plan in as its own ad group, with a page showing two complete weddings from that city.
Venue-led searches, such as palace wedding in Udaipur
Bid if you plan weddings at that venue. Couples start with the place, so put the venues you have worked at on the page, and ask for the guest count and the dates they are considering.
Decor and idea searches, such as haldi decoration ideas or mehendi designs
Block. These are people collecting inspiration, often for a function they will plan alone. Add invitation templates and wedding dress too, which belong to other trades.
Vendor searches, such as wedding photographer or caterer
Block unless you sell them as a stand-alone service. A family looking for a caterer will not read a page about full planning, and the click will cost you.
Where the click lands
Send the click to a page for that city or wedding style, with finished work and what a first meeting covers. The form should ask the date, the city, the guest count and a budget range.
Counting a real enquiry
Count a form with a date, a city and a budget, or a call that books a family meeting. A WhatsApp that only asks for a package brochure is a lead to nurture, not yet an enquiry.

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You have not decided which cities and wedding sizes you will accept, so clicks would arrive for work you plan to refuse.
  • Nobody checks the enquiry inbox on the evening a search ad is clicked, so the couple would reach a rival first.
  • You depend on one winter booking window and have no spare dates, so paying for more enquiries would only create a waiting list you cannot serve.

How it works

How the pay per click advertising 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

    Agree the whole budget

    We fix the total paid budget across platforms, who owns each ad account, and how much is open to moving.

  2. 2

    Audit tracking and accounts

    We check that conversions fire once, that calls and WhatsApp chats are counted, and that your enquiry sheet matches what the platforms say.

  3. 3

    Set one definition of success

    You and we agree what a qualified enquiry is and what an order is, so every platform is judged the same way.

  4. 4

    Build and launch the plan

    Campaigns are structured across platforms with shared naming and tags from day one.

  5. 5

    Read search terms and lead quality

    We review the queries that triggered ads and the enquiries that arrived, and remove waste before moving money.

  6. 6

    Reallocate and report

    Budget moves toward what is earning, within agreed limits. Results are reported against the baseline, at the frequency 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.

Is a listing platform a better use of money than Google Ads?
It depends on your city and your budget segment, and the only way to know is to track both. We record which enquiries from each source reach a family meeting and an advance, then you decide where next season's money goes.
Should we advertise in the off-season?
Yes, for the intimate weddings that happen then, and for next season's destination enquiries, which start early. Cut the spend for dates you are already booked on.
Should we bid on wedding planner near me or choose specific cities?
Choose cities. Near me searches rely on a location setting that is often wrong, and a destination wedding is chosen by place. Set each city you really plan in, and a general campaign for the rest.
Should the advert speak to the bride, the groom or the parents?
Speak to the family. The search may come from a bride or a parent, but the decision is shared. A page that is respectful of both generations, and shows how you handle the family meeting, works for whoever clicks.
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.
