Dry fruit stores · Digital marketing

Join the channels around one shop: the map, the catalogue and the order list.

Digital marketing for a dry fruit store is the combined use of the map listing, the website, WhatsApp, social media and paid promotion to bring in household and gift buyers. GullySales works on which channels the shop needs first and how they connect to one order list.

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 dry fruit stores

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

  • “Channels bought separately do not add up”

    An advertisement that sends a buyer to a site with no order route wastes the click. Each channel has to end at the catalogue or the phone. Point every advertisement at the catalogue, the WhatsApp number or the Maps listing, and read which one the buyer actually used.

  • “Start where the enquiry already is”

    If the orders come on WhatsApp and the Maps listing, fix those before buying advertisements. The cheapest buyer is the one who already searched for you. Fix the listing and the catalogue first, then add advertisements, because a buyer already searching for you costs less to win than a stranger.

  • “Paid promotion belongs to the festival weeks”

    Spending on advertisements when no box is on offer buys attention you cannot use. Tie spend to the booking window of each occasion. Start the spend when the booking opens, stop it on the cut-off date, and keep the quiet months for the free channels.

  • “Marketplaces are a channel, not a home”

    Listing on a marketplace reaches buyers, but the buyer belongs to the platform. Use it for reach and move repeat orders to your own number. Hand the marketplace buyer your card in the parcel with the WhatsApp number, so the next kilo is ordered from you directly.

What we do

What we deliver for dry fruit stores.

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

  1. A channel plan

    Which channels, for which buyer, in which order.

    Result: One page that says where effort goes.

  2. A map listing and a catalogue set up

    The first two channels, ready to take enquiries.

    Result: Buyers can find and ask.

  3. A paid promotion plan for festival windows

    Budget set against each booking period, with a stop date.

    Result: Spend follows the calendar.

  4. One order list across channels

    Every enquiry from every source written in one register.

    Result: You see which channel produced each order.

  5. A baseline before changes

    Counts of calls, messages and orders before work begins.

    Result: Later numbers have something to be compared with.

  6. A review against the order book

    Each occasion read against the previous year's record.

    Result: You can see what changed.

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.

Where should a small shop begin?
With the Maps listing and the WhatsApp catalogue, because buyers already use both. Add the website and paid promotion once those take enquiries properly.
Do we need an agency or a staff member?
You need a named owner for each channel. GullySales sets up the plan and the register; a person in the shop must reply and update the stock.
Is paid promotion worth it for one shop?
Only in the booking window of a festival and only with a clear order route. Start with a small test, read the enquiries it brings, and decide on more spend after that.
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.
