Business growth consultants · Lead generation
Find owners who are stuck while they are still deciding whom to call.
Lead generation for a growth consultant means reaching owner-run businesses at the moment growth stalls, and not before or after. GullySales works on the situations owners search for, the talks they attend and the advisers they ask, then records where each enquiry began.
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 business growth consultants
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The owner names a symptom, never a service”
Nobody types business growth consulting at the start. The owner types that turnover has not moved, that collections are slow or that the business stops when they travel. A lead page has to answer that sentence, because the symptom is what the owner is actually living with.
“A talk produces more leads than anyone records”
An association hall holds a room of owners who nod, take a handout and leave. Without a list of who asked a question or collected the note, the consultant cannot call anyone afterwards, and the talk has to be counted as a favour done for free.
“The adviser is a lead source and needs a reason”
A chartered accountant or bank manager sees stalled numbers before the owner admits them. They send an owner only when they know exactly which situation to name you for, and when they trust that the owner will be treated properly.
What we do
What we deliver for business growth consultants.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Situation pages that capture an enquiry
A page per stuck-owner situation, each ending in a short form that asks for the business type and the problem in a sentence.
Result: Each enquiry arrives with the owner's own description of the problem attached.
A self-check for stalled growth
A short list of questions an owner answers about orders, collections and dependence on one person, followed by a conversation offer.
Result: You see which answers the owner gave before the first call.
A talk follow-up list
A sheet for each session recording who attended, what they asked and who collected the handout, with a note sent to each person.
Result: Every talk leaves a named list instead of a memory.
An adviser introduction brief
A one-page note for accountants and bankers naming the situations in which to send an owner to you.
Result: The adviser holds a written description of when to name you.
An enquiry register
One sheet where every enquiry is logged with its source, the situation and what happened next.
Result: You can read which route brought each owner who signed.
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
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
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
Audit current sources
We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.
- 3
Strategise the channel mix
Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.
- 4
Implement capture and follow-up
Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.
- 5
Measure and optimise
We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.
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.
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.
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.
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.
