Lighting designers · Digital marketing

Choose the few online channels that reach architects and developers, and drop the rest.

Digital marketing for a lighting designer means deciding which online channels, among search, social media, email, messaging and the website, bring project teams to the studio. GullySales looks at where your past work came from and builds a plan around those sources.

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 lighting designers

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

  • “The studio is spread across too many channels”

    A small studio tries a website, three social profiles and a newsletter, and keeps none of them current. A plan that picks the channels the buyers actually use is easier to keep up and shows better results.

  • “Visitors are professionals who judge quickly”

    An architect arriving from a link decides in moments whether the portfolio is serious. The pages they land on must load cleanly, show work first and say what the studio designs without a search.

  • “Activity is not tracked against fees”

    Posting, emailing and updating the site feel productive, yet without records nobody knows which brought a proposal. Each channel needs a count of enquiries and fees signed against it.

  • “Dealers spend more online”

    Fitting suppliers have large budgets and wide reach. A studio competes by being specific: the right pages, the right introductions, and proof of independent design.

What we do

What we deliver for lighting designers.

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

  1. Channel plan from past work

    A review of where the last projects came from, and a short list of channels to focus on.

    Result: The studio drops activity that brings no enquiries.

  2. Portfolio and service pages

    Pages showing the work by space type and describing each service in clear terms.

    Result: A visitor sees the studio's work and services at once.

  3. Email introduction series

    A set of short notes for architects and interior designers, sent to people who agreed to hear from the studio.

    Result: Project teams receive a considered introduction.

  4. Enquiry tracking

    A record of enquiries by channel, with the ones that became proposals and fees marked.

    Result: Each channel can be judged by what it brings.

  5. Review of the plan

    A regular look at the figures and a decision on what to keep, stop or add.

    Result: Effort moves towards what is working.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries across channels
  • Cost per enquiry overall
  • Channel mix by contribution

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

How it works

How the digital 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 the objective

    We agree the one thing this campaign needs to achieve before choosing any channel.

  2. 2

    Audit available channels

    We assess which channels are realistic to run well within the budget and timeline.

  3. 3

    Strategise the central idea

    One message and offer is developed that will work across every planned channel.

  4. 4

    Implement across channels

    Each channel receives its own adapted version, launched on a shared timeline.

  5. 5

    Measure as one campaign

    Results from every channel are combined into a single report against the original objective.

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.

Where should a small studio start?
With the website and the introduction list, since those serve the main buyers directly. Other channels follow once those are in order and tracked.
Do we need advertising?
Not necessarily. Advertising suits particular services, such as homes. For project-team work, introductions matter more. We look at your own figures before advising.
How do we know the plan is working?
By counting enquiries, meetings and signed fees against each channel. We set up a simple record so those counts exist.
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.
