Retail store designers · Lead generation

Find the brands that are about to open outlets, before they brief another studio.

Lead generation for a retail store designer is the steady search for brand owners, franchise heads and expansion managers who have an outlet planned and no designer yet. GullySales works on who to approach, what to show them and how every enquiry is recorded until it becomes a brief.

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 retail store designers

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

  • “The best lead is a lease that has just been signed”

    A chain that has taken a unit in a mall is already late. The expansion head wants a designer within days of the lease, so the studio that is known to that landlord, or already in the head's phone, is the one that gets the first call.

  • “A franchise brand briefs many towns through one person”

    Win the franchise head and every franchisee in the network can be pointed to your drawings. Chase each franchisee separately and you meet the same objection in every town. The lead to chase is the person who writes the brand's outlet manual.

  • “Single shop owners arrive by a different road”

    A pharmacy owner moving into a bigger shop searches for designers nearby and asks the display supplier for a name. These leads are small and frequent, and they need a short answer on cost and fixtures rather than a roll-out proposal.

  • “Enquiries from suppliers and agents go unlogged”

    A landlord's agent or a fixture vendor mentions your studio on a call, and nobody writes it down. Without a record of where each enquiry came from, you cannot tell which relationship is worth the coffee.

What we do

What we deliver for retail store designers.

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

  1. A target list by brand type

    Chains and franchise brands grouped by store type: jewellery, footwear, pharmacy, grocery, mobile retail. Each entry names the expansion contact where it is publicly known.

    Result: You can say which brands you will approach next and why.

  2. Landlord and supplier introduction routes

    A short list of mall managers, leasing agents and display suppliers who hear about new outlets first, with a reason for each to name you.

    Result: Each source has a recorded first conversation.

  3. An enquiry form that asks the right things

    Store type, town, floor area if known, landlord, opening season and whether the brand has an outlet manual.

    Result: Every enquiry arrives with enough detail to answer.

  4. A single log for every source

    Each lead tagged with the route it came by: search, landlord, supplier, referral, direct pitch.

    Result: You can read which route brought the briefs you won.

  5. A reply script for the first call

    Questions to ask before quoting, so the studio does not price a store from one photograph.

    Result: The first call ends with a named next step.

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.

Tell us what you need
Should we chase chains or single shops first?
Do both with separate pages and separate replies. Chains take longer to decide but repeat. Single shops decide fast and bring referrals. Your portfolio decides which you can serve well today.
Can lead generation promise a number of briefs?
No. GullySales cannot promise briefs or contracts. We work on reaching the right brands, presenting proof and recording every enquiry, so you can see what is working.
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.
