Fundraising consultants · WhatsApp marketing

Handle the deck that lands on WhatsApp as the first meeting it really is.

WhatsApp for a fundraising consultant is the channel where founders send decks, ask a quick question and reply to the next step. GullySales works on the first reply, the business profile and the rules for what is shared there.

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 fundraising consultants

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

  • “The first message is a file”

    A founder opens with a deck and the words "please review". Without a standard first reply asking stage, sector and the funds sought, the consultant either reads for nothing or answers slowly and loses the founder.

  • “Quick opinions on chat become free consulting”

    A one-line view on a deck is easy to give and hard to withdraw. A fixed reply that offers a paid review, with the scope stated, turns the habit into a service and protects your time.

  • “Sensitive files do not belong in a group”

    Cap tables, financials and investor lists sent in a shared chat may reach the wrong person. A rule that confidential files go to a named folder, with only the discussion on chat, protects both sides.

  • “Promoters and startup founders write differently”

    A startup founder sends short messages through the day. A promoter sends a voice note, or asks the CA to message. The reply style, language and hour of the day have to suit the person, not one fixed pattern.

What we do

What we deliver for fundraising consultants.

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

  1. A business profile that states what you do

    A WhatsApp Business profile with your description, the rounds you handle and a plain line on how a deck should be sent.

    Result: A founder knows how to approach you before the first message.

  2. A first-reply script

    A short answer to a first message asking for stage, sector, accounts status and funds sought, with a link to the form.

    Result: Every enquiry arrives with the same facts.

  3. A paid-review reply

    A prepared answer for the founder who wants a quick view, setting out what a paid review covers and how to book it.

    Result: Free opinions are redirected to a scoped offer.

  4. A rule for files and groups

    A note on which documents are shared where, and a ban on adding a founder to any group with another client.

    Result: No client sees another client's papers.

  5. A message log tied to the record

    A routine for saving what was agreed on chat into the founder's record the same day.

    Result: Nothing decided on WhatsApp is lost in the thread.

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.

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

    Understand current WhatsApp use

    We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.

  2. 2

    Audit common questions

    We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.

  3. 3

    Set up automation and templates

    An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

  4. 4

    Connect to the CRM

    Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track response time and conversion, refining automated responses based on what customers actually ask.

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.

Tell us what you need
Can I send promotional broadcasts to founders?
Only to people who have agreed to hear from you, and within the platform's current rules. Check those rules and the law on commercial messages before sending to any list, and let anyone opt out.
Should the team share one number?
A single business number with named people answering is easier for founders and for you than several personal phones. Decide who replies, and write down what each person may agree to.
Is WhatsApp safe for client documents?
Treat chat as a convenience, not a store. Keep sensitive files in a controlled folder and share through it. Ask your own adviser about confidentiality duties to clients before deciding what goes on chat.
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.
