Waterproofing contractors · Buyer persona
Write down who actually decides a waterproofing job, and what each of them reads.
A buyer persona for a waterproofing contractor is a written profile of each person who influences a job: the consultant, the purchase manager, the committee secretary and the frightened homeowner. GullySales works on profiles drawn from your own enquiry history and site visits.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What buyer persona means
A buyer persona is a plain description of the kind of customer who actually buys from you. It includes what they search, what worries them and who else they ask before deciding. GullySales builds this from real enquiries and past sales rather than a generic template, then uses it to write every page and advert.

For waterproofing contractors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The structural consultant writes the specification”
This person is judged on a building that does not leak in five years. They look for systems with a track record, trained applicators and clear test procedures. A casual pitch about low rates does not reach them, and a method statement does.
“The builder's purchase manager compares rates”
Given a specification, the purchase manager asks approved applicators for figures and sets them side by side. Past delivery on similar projects and reliable crew availability weigh with them, because a delayed basement holds up the floors above.
“The society secretary needs something to show the committee”
The secretary is rarely the decision maker, yet carries the decision to the meeting. They need a written scope, a stated guarantee, photographs and a reply they can forward to the other members without explaining the method themselves.
“The homeowner with a wet wall is worried and impatient”
This buyer has a visible problem, perhaps after a previous failed repair, and wants to hear that the cause will be found. A rate over the phone feels like an answer but is not one, and a survey visit feels like a plan.
What we do
What we deliver for waterproofing contractors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Four written persona profiles
Consultant, builder purchase manager, society committee and homeowner, each with the question they ask first and the document they need.
Result: Your team has a shared description of who is buying.
A message map for each persona
The opening line, the proof and the document for each buyer, based on how your best jobs were won.
Result: Each buyer receives material suited to their role.
A review of past enquiries
Last season's calls and quotations read to see who asked, what they wanted and why some bought.
Result: The personas rest on your own records.
Decision-maker mapping for committee jobs
A simple sheet recording who attends the meeting, who signs the work order and who approves payment.
Result: The quotation reaches the person who decides, not only the person who asked.
Persona-based page structure
Entry points on the website for builders and consultants and for owners and committees.
Result: Each visitor reaches a page that speaks to their role.
How the result is measured
- Enquiry match to persona
- Conversion rate by persona
- Content aligned to persona
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it works
How the buyer persona 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
Understand the current view
We start with how your team currently describes the customer, since the gap between belief and reality is often the finding itself.
- 2
Audit past enquiries and sales
We look at recent enquiries and closed deals to see who actually bought, not who was assumed to buy.
- 3
Interview customers and staff
Short, structured conversations surface the real language, worries and triggers behind a purchase.
- 4
Build the personas
Findings are written into short, usable persona documents rather than a long report.
- 5
Apply to your marketing
We show exactly where each persona should change a page, an ad or a script you already have.
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.
