MEP consultants · Lead generation

Reach the architect or owner while the services are still undecided.

Lead generation for an MEP consultant is the work of reaching the architects, developers and building owners who choose a consultant before the drawings are fixed. GullySales works on the list of people to reach, the project signals that tell you who is about to appoint, and the record that shows which source produced a proposal.

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 MEP consultants

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

  • “The enquiry arrives after the appointment is half decided”

    By the time an architect phones for a fee, a favoured consultant is already pencilled in. A lead worth having is the one you meet at concept stage, which means finding projects before the fee request, not answering it.

  • “A project name is a better lead than a company name”

    A developer with a new launch in a given locality has a building that needs services design. Chasing the company in general reaches a receptionist; chasing the named project reaches the technical head who is choosing.

  • “Referrals from one architect are not a pipeline”

    Repeat work from two or three practices feels like steady business until one of them changes consultant. Each new architect or project manager you are introduced to is a lead of a different kind, and it needs its own tracking.

What we do

What we deliver for MEP consultants.

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

  1. A project watch list

    Planned hospitals, hotels, offices and plants in your cities, gathered from public announcements, approvals and your own contacts, with the architect and developer noted against each.

    Result: You hold a named list of buildings worth approaching, not a list of firms.

  2. A short opening note per building type

    One note for hospital projects, one for hotels, one for offices and apartments, each opening with a system problem that building type meets.

    Result: Every note reads as if written for that project.

  3. A source field on every enquiry

    Each enquiry is recorded with where it came from: an architect, a developer list, a search, an event or a former client.

    Result: You can see which sources produced proposals and which produced only calls.

  4. A hand-off from first call to proposal

    A set of questions the first call must answer, covering building type, stage, area, architect and decision maker, before a fee is quoted.

    Result: Fee quotes are written against known facts.

  5. A list of lapsed contacts

    Architects and project managers who once asked for a quote and went quiet, each with the last project discussed.

    Result: Past conversations are reopened with a reason to call.

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. 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. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 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.

  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.

Should we buy leads from a directory?
Directories send each fee request to several consultants at once, so the enquiry arrives as a price comparison. Direct introductions at concept stage fit this trade better. If you try a directory, record what each enquiry turned into.
Can lead generation work if we only do hospital design?
Yes, and a narrow focus helps. A short list of hospital developers, healthcare project managers and hospital architects is easier to reach and track than a general list. The pages must state which hospital systems you design.
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.
