Dry fruit stores · WhatsApp marketing
Run orders, catalogue and quotations from the number buyers already message.
WhatsApp marketing for a dry fruit store is the use of WhatsApp Business for the catalogue, the order flow and the festival booking messages. GullySales works on the catalogue, the greeting, the reply templates and the permission to message.
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 dry fruit stores
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Orders already arrive on WhatsApp”
Households send a list, gift buyers ask for a catalogue and companies request a quote. A store that treats this as a side channel loses orders to whoever replies first. Reply from one business number with a greeting, hours and a catalogue, and the household's list becomes an order the same hour.
“A catalogue beats a long reply”
A buyer asking for rates does not want a paragraph. A catalogue of best-selling lines with pack sizes and a clear order cut-off answers the question in one tap. List the best-selling lines with pack sizes and a cut-off date, so the buyer can choose without a second message or a phone call.
“Broadcasts need permission”
Sending festival offers to everyone in the phone book annoys the household and risks the number. Message those who asked, and check the platform's current rules. Ask at the counter, keep a note of who agreed, and send only the festival booking message to those buyers, never a general blast.
“Status updates reach the regulars”
Tray photographs and new arrivals on status reach the households who saved the number, at no extra cost and without a broadcast. Post the tray of the day and the new arrival on status, and the saved regulars see it without a broadcast or a new message from you.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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
Understand current WhatsApp use
We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.

Audit common questions
We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.
- 3
Set up automation and templates
An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

Connect to the CRM
Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.

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.
