Bicycle stores · Digital marketing

Digital marketing for a cycle shop starts with the three things a rider searches for.

Digital marketing for a bicycle store covers the Maps profile, the website, social posts, WhatsApp and local ads, joined so a rider finds the shop and a record shows what brought them. GullySales works out which of these your shop needs first and which can wait.

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 bicycle stores

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

  • “Everything at once spreads a small shop thin”

    A shop that runs ads, posts daily and builds a website in the same stretch cannot read what worked. Starting with the profile and the WhatsApp reply, then adding one thing at a time, gives results you can trace.

  • “Ads help for a few moments in the year”

    Before summer holidays and around birthdays, parents search for cycles, and a local ad can reach them. Outside those times, the same spend buys taps with no visit. Season decides whether paid reach makes sense.

  • “The shop sells two things and marketing must show both”

    A message for new cycles and a message for repair reach different people. If both are folded into one general post, neither buyer feels spoken to, so the channels need clear jobs.

  • “The counter is part of the marketing”

    A beautiful profile that sends a parent to a counter with nobody to answer wastes the spend. The reply on WhatsApp and the welcome at the shop are the last step of the campaign.

What we do

What we deliver for bicycle stores.

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

  1. A starting order for your shop

    A short plan that ranks the profile, the website, WhatsApp, posts and ads by what your records show you need first.

    Result: You know what to do first and what to leave.

  2. A joined-up set of basics

    The Maps profile, a simple site, a WhatsApp Business number and a post routine set up to carry the same name, hours and offer.

    Result: A rider sees the same shop everywhere.

  3. A seasonal campaign calendar

    The holiday, birthday, festival and rainy-season moments, with what to promote before each.

    Result: Campaigns are planned before the busy days.

  4. A small local ad test

    A limited local ad for one cycle type or service, with a clear way to count the enquiries it brings.

    Result: You see whether paid reach pays for your shop.

  5. A source count

    A note on every enquiry for where the person came from.

    Result: You can compare channels by enquiries and sales, not by taps.

  6. A review of the work

    A sit-down read of what was done, what came in and what to change.

    Result: The next step is chosen from the records.

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

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the digital marketing work runs

  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.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

What should a cycle shop spend on first?
The Maps profile and the WhatsApp reply cost little and carry the first enquiries. We read your records to confirm before suggesting spend on ads or a site rebuild.
Can we do this ourselves?
Parts, yes. Posting from the shop floor and answering WhatsApp are best done by your team. We set up the structure, the calendar and the reading of results so the work does not drift.
How do we know digital marketing is working?
By counting enquiries, visits, bookings and sales against the baseline kept before the work began. We do not promise a figure. We show what changed and what the records can and cannot prove.
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.
