Startup consultants · Digital marketing
Put your advice where founders look before they pick an adviser.
Digital marketing for a startup consultant is the combined work of search, content, social posts, messaging and follow-up that puts you in front of founders at the moment they decide to start. GullySales builds the pieces in order and links each one to an enquiry you can trace.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What digital marketing means
Digital marketing is the combined work of search, social media, advertising and website channels running together rather than as separate projects with separate people. GullySales runs these as one connected system so a change in one channel, such as a new offer, is reflected everywhere at once.

For startup consultants
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Founders research quietly before they call”
A founder reads several pages, asks a friend and checks a profile before contacting anyone. If your presence is thin at any of those steps, you are dropped without knowing.
“The mix depends on the founder you want”
A student team lives on Instagram and campus groups. A professional leaving a job reads LinkedIn and search. Spreading effort evenly serves neither; choose by where your best clients came from.
“Activity without a source is guessing”
Posts, pages and ads that cannot be tied to an enquiry leave you unsure what works. Each channel needs a way to say how many founders it brought and how many paid.
“The website is where it all lands”
Whatever brings a founder in, they end up on your pages. If those pages read as form-filling, the effort elsewhere is wasted. Fix the landing before widening the reach.
What we do
What we deliver for startup consultants.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A channel plan from your last clients
Where your paying founders came from, and the two or three channels worth the effort now.
Result: You know where to spend and where to wait.
Pages, posts and messages that agree
The same positioning of advice, not registration, on your site, your profile and your replies.
Result: A founder sees the same firm in every place.
Tracking from enquiry to outcome
Each enquiry tagged with its source and followed to paid, not paid or waiting.
Result: You can name the source of your last three paying founders.
A calendar around scheme windows
Content and optional ads planned for the weeks when a recognition or grant window is open.
Result: Your effort rises when founders are searching.
A review of what to stop
A list of activities that brought calls but no paid work, discussed with you.
Result: Time goes to what produces paying founders.

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.
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.
