Structural contractors · WhatsApp marketing

Make WhatsApp the place where builders see your frames and send the drawing.

WhatsApp marketing for a structural contractor means using the app builders and site engineers already live in for enquiries, drawings, quotations and updates. GullySales sets up a business profile, ready replies and a record so conversations become orders you can trace.

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 structural contractors

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

  • “Drawings and photographs already travel on WhatsApp”

    A builder sends a drawing, a site engineer sends a photograph of the pour and a supervisor sends a shuttering query, all in one thread. A contractor who answers there, clearly and with the right file, is easier to work with than one who asks for an email.

  • “Group chats spread a name faster than an advertisement”

    Builders' and site engineers' groups swap contractor names when a gang lets someone down. A short, factual profile that a satisfied builder can forward carries more weight than a promotion, and it travels without a cost.

  • “Broadcasting to people who did not ask causes harm”

    Sending the same offer to every contact in the phone annoys builders and risks the number being reported. Messages go to people who have dealt with you or asked, with a clear way to stop, and the platform's current rules are checked first.

What we do

What we deliver for structural contractors.

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

  1. A business profile with a catalogue of services

    Name, towns, a short description and a list of services such as RCC frames, steel erection and strengthening.

    Result: A builder opening the chat sees what you do before typing.

  2. Ready replies for common questions

    Replies about scope, capacity, towns served and the documents needed for a quotation, written in the language of your builders.

    Result: Your team answers common questions the same way each time.

  3. A one-page profile built to be forwarded

    A single image or document with equipment, gangs and finished frames that a builder can pass to another.

    Result: A recommendation arrives with something concrete attached.

  4. A permission-based contact list

    A list of builders and engineers who have dealt with you or agreed to receive messages, with the reason recorded.

    Result: Messages go only to people who expect them.

  5. A chat-to-record routine

    A habit of entering each real enquiry from WhatsApp into the CRM with its source.

    Result: Orders that began in a chat can be traced.

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
Is WhatsApp enough on its own?
It carries the conversation, but builders also look for a page to check you. We pair it with a simple website or profile so the chat has something to point to.
Can I send my offer to all my contacts?
Not wisely. Send to people who have dealt with you or asked, and follow the platform's current rules. A mass send to cold contacts harms the number and the name.
Who should answer the chat?
Someone who knows scope and capacity, whether the owner or a trained estimator. A reply that wavers on basics loses the builder faster than a slow one.
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.
