Ethnic wear stores · WhatsApp marketing
Send a shortlist by occasion on WhatsApp so the family arrives knowing what to try.
WhatsApp marketing for an ethnic wear store means using the business app to share occasion catalogues, answer sizing questions and keep order updates in one thread. GullySales works on the catalogue, the saved replies and the message routine, using the app's current rules.
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 ethnic wear stores
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“Families ask for photographs before they visit”
A buyer sends a screenshot from Instagram and asks if the store has something like it. A catalogue organised by occasion lets the shop reply with a shortlist and a price range.
“A promise to come in is not a visit”
The conversation ends with a thank you and the family never arrives. A reply that proposes a trial time and names the outfits held aside converts a chat into a booking.
“Group chats carry the decision”
The family decides in its own WhatsApp group, and the shop is spoken about but not present. A clear, forwardable message with outfit codes and prices is what travels into that group.
“Order updates scatter across personal numbers”
Fitting dates sent from a salesperson's personal phone disappear when that person leaves. The shop's business number should hold the thread.
What we do
What we deliver for ethnic wear stores.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
An occasion catalogue
Photographs grouped under mehendi, sangeet, reception, Navratri and Eid, with codes, price ranges and available sizes.
Result: A buyer receives a shortlist by function, not a scroll of photographs.
Saved replies for the common questions
Ready answers on trials, alterations, deposits and store hours, edited in the shop's own voice.
Result: The counter answers the usual questions the same way every time.
Order status messages
Messages that tell a family when the fitting is due and when the outfit is ready.
Result: The family hears about its order on the shop's number.
A broadcast list built on consent
A list of customers who agreed to hear from the store, grouped by occasion.
Result: Messages go only to people who asked for them.
A click-to-chat link for profiles
A link from the Google profile, website and Instagram that opens a chat with the shop.
Result: Every public page gives the buyer a way to start a conversation.
How the result is measured
- Messages delivered
- Reply rate

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

An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

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.
