Company secretarial firms · Buyer persona

Write down whether the founder, the CFO or the CA is the one choosing.

A buyer persona for a company secretarial firm describes the person who decides and what that person worries about. GullySales builds one card for each company type you want, drawn from your own client list and enquiry history.

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

What buyer persona means

A buyer persona is a plain description of the kind of customer who actually buys from you. It includes what they search, what worries them and who else they ask before deciding. GullySales builds this from real enquiries and past sales rather than a generic template, then uses it to write every page and advert.

For company secretarial firms

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

  • “The first-time founder”

    Setting up a private company, the founder wants to be told what is mandatory and what can wait. The worry is paying for work the company does not yet need.

  • “The startup with an investor”

    After a funding round the investor expects clean registers and proper minutes. The founder is looking for a firm that has handled an allotment before, and asks for it by name.

  • “The finance head of a larger company”

    A CFO manages a secretary alongside auditors and counsel. The concern is a firm that meets internal deadlines and communicates clearly with the board.

  • “The chartered accountant as referrer”

    A CA recommends a secretary for clients, and trusts one who stays within the brief and does not approach the client for accounting work.

What we do

What we deliver for company secretarial firms.

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

  1. Founder card

    A written profile of the first-time founder: the trigger, the worry and the question asked first.

    Result: Messages speak to what the founder is actually worried about.

  2. Startup and investor card

    A profile of the funded startup, including the investor's expectations of records.

    Result: Pages answer the questions an investor would raise.

  3. Finance head card

    A profile of the CFO or finance head who manages a secretary among other advisers.

    Result: Outreach to larger companies uses the right tone.

  4. Referrer card

    A profile of the CA or lawyer who recommends you, including what they need to feel safe.

    Result: A referrer knows what you will and will not do for their client.

  5. Check against your clients

    Each card compared with your existing retainers and corrected where your clients differ.

    Result: The cards describe your real clients, not an assumed one.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiry match to persona
  • Conversion rate by persona
  • Content aligned to persona

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

How it works

How the buyer persona 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 the current view

    We start with how your team currently describes the customer, since the gap between belief and reality is often the finding itself.

  2. 2

    Audit past enquiries and sales

    We look at recent enquiries and closed deals to see who actually bought, not who was assumed to buy.

  3. 3

    Interview customers and staff

    Short, structured conversations surface the real language, worries and triggers behind a purchase.

  4. 4

    Build the personas

    Findings are written into short, usable persona documents rather than a long report.

  5. 5

    Apply to your marketing

    We show exactly where each persona should change a page, an ad or a script you already have.

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.

How many cards do we need?
One for each company type you want to win is enough to start. Use your present retainers and the enquiries you have already received to fill them in.
Where does the information come from?
From your client list, enquiry log and conversations with partners. We do not invent facts about buyers, and each card is checked against what your team has seen.
Should the cards change the way we write?
Yes. A founder needs plain explanation, an investor-backed startup needs proof of experience, and a referrer needs clear boundaries. One message does not serve all three.
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.
