Clothing stores and boutiques · WhatsApp marketing

Make the WhatsApp catalogue the second showroom for every wedding shopper.

WhatsApp marketing for a boutique means the catalogue, the quick replies and the occasion messages a shopper sees on the app they already use every day. GullySales sets up WhatsApp Business so a price question gets pictures and an invitation, and a customer list gets a collection preview.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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 clothing stores and boutiques

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

  • “The shopper sends a photo and asks for the price”

    A saved screenshot of a saree or blouse arrives with no words. A catalogue entry with the fabric, colours and size range answers faster than the owner can type, and makes the shop look organised.

  • “Customers forward your catalogue to the family”

    The bride forwards your collection to the mother and a cousin on other phones. Clean photographs, clear names and a visible price range travel well, while a messy gallery of unlabelled images does not.

  • “Broadcast to everyone and people mute you”

    A message about men's wear sent to a list of bridal customers earns a block. Groups by occasion and style keep each message relevant, and each recipient should have agreed to hear from the shop.

  • “The personal number is a trap”

    When the business runs from the owner's own number, enquiries mix with family chats and vanish when the phone is lost. A separate Business number with labels keeps the shop's conversations in the shop.

What we do

What we deliver for clothing stores and boutiques.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile set up properly

    Business name, address, hours, description and the link to your Maps listing, entered on a dedicated number.

    Result: A new contact sees a real shop, not a stranger.

  2. A catalogue arranged by occasion

    Collections loaded as bridal, festival, everyday, men's and kids' with clear photographs, names and price ranges.

    Result: A price question is answered with one catalogue link.

  3. Quick replies for the common questions

    Saved answers for price, sizes, stitching, alterations and visiting hours, written in the language the customer used.

    Result: The reply goes out in seconds, in a consistent voice.

  4. Labels by stage and occasion

    Labels such as new enquiry, fitting booked, order in progress and ready for collection.

    Result: You can see every open conversation by stage.

  5. Consent-based collection preview lists

    Lists of customers who asked to hear about new collections, grouped by the kind of outfit they buy.

    Result: Previews reach people who want them.

  6. A reply rule for shop hours

    A named person who answers within the hours the shop is open, and an away message for the rest.

    Result: An enquiry does not wait unanswered during the day.

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

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 whatsapp marketing work runs

  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.

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.

Should we use the WhatsApp Business app or the API?
A single shop or a small group of stores can start with the Business app. Consider the API when several staff must answer one number or when you need automated flows. Check the platform's current rules and charges.
Can we message past customers about a sale?
Message those who have agreed to receive updates from the shop, and give an easy way to opt out. Sending to a bought or scraped list risks a block and harms your name.
Should the catalogue show prices?
Show a range or the starting price where you can. A shopper who cannot judge the budget asks anyway, so a visible range saves time for both sides. Keep it updated.
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.
