Electrical and lighting dealers · WhatsApp marketing

The photograph of a light, a rate list and a quote travel best over WhatsApp.

WhatsApp marketing for an electrical and lighting dealer is the use of a business number to send product photographs, rate updates, quotes and showroom follow-ups to the people who have agreed to hear from you. GullySales sets up the number, the catalogue and the rules for who is messaged and why.

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 electrical and lighting dealers

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

  • “Electricians already ask for rates on WhatsApp”

    The electrician on site sends a photograph of a switch or an MCB and asks for the price and stock. A business number with a saved catalogue and saved replies answers in the same chat, and records who asked for what.

  • “Families share lights with each other, not with you”

    A couple photograph a chandelier and send it to the parents. If the showroom sends a clean image with the model, size and price, the decision continues in a chat you are part of instead of on a marketplace.

  • “A broadcast to everyone burns the list”

    Sending the same message about Diwali lights to electricians, designers and families makes it irrelevant to the other groups. Separate lists for each group let the trade hear about stock and the family hear about rooms.

  • “Consent is the part owners skip”

    Adding people to a group without asking leads to blocks and complaints. Messages go to people who opted in, with a clear way to stop. Check the platform's current rules for business messaging before sending anything in bulk.

What we do

What we deliver for electrical and lighting dealers.

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

  1. A business profile and catalogue

    Your WhatsApp Business profile with hours, address and a catalogue of the products people ask for again and again.

    Result: A buyer can see what you stock before they ask.

  2. Saved replies for common questions

    Saved answers for price, stock, delivery and showroom timings, written in the language your customers use.

    Result: Staff answer the same way each time and without typing from scratch.

  3. Separate lists by buyer

    Contacts grouped into trade, families, designers and project buyers, each with a reason to receive messages.

    Result: Each message goes to people who care about it.

  4. An opt-in routine

    A simple way to ask at billing and in the showroom for permission to message, recorded against the name.

    Result: You can show who agreed to hear from you.

  5. Quote and photo templates

    Layouts for sending a lighting suggestion for a room or a bill of materials quote that look clear on a phone.

    Result: Buyers can read the quote without calling to ask what it says.

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.

Your brief

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Should we use our personal number or a business number?
A business number. It keeps customer chats away from personal ones, lets several staff reply and carries your shop name. Moving existing contacts across needs their agreement, and we plan that step with you.
Can we send offers to all our electricians at once?
Yes, if they have agreed to hear from you and the message is useful to them, such as stock arrival or a rate change. Check the platform's current rules, and keep each message short and relevant.
Can WhatsApp replace our showroom visits?
No. A family still wants to see a light switched on. WhatsApp keeps the conversation going before and after the visit, with photographs, prices and answers to the questions the family left with.
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.
