GullySales

Furniture stores and retailers · Outdoor advertising

A showroom visit is a planned drive, so the board must say how far and which turn.

Outdoor advertising for a furniture showroom is bought on the roads that lead to a store families drive to on a Sunday with the room measurements saved on a phone. GullySales picks sites by the approach to your door, adds the last-turn boards that stop people overshooting it, and puts a code on the offer.

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

What outdoor advertising means

Outdoor advertising is the hoarding, billboard, bus shelter or digital screen on a road your buyers already use. GullySales picks the sites from where your customers actually come from, coordinates the booking with the media owner, and gives the campaign a traceable route so it is not judged on guesswork.

For furniture stores and retailers

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

  • “Nobody stops at a sofa showroom on the way to work”

    The visit is planned the night before and made at the weekend, often with a grandparent in the car. A panel earns its cycle by telling that driver how far ahead the store is and which side to turn.

  • “Show the room, because one chair says nothing at speed”

    A single product photograph is lost at fifty kilometres an hour. A finished living room or a complete modular kitchen in one frame is what the passenger points at, and the wardrobe conversation starts at home that evening.

  • “The sale dates set the cycle, not the calendar month”

    Families plan a year-end or festival purchase in the week before the offer opens. Flex mounted on the first morning of the sale has missed the people who arranged their Sunday around it.

  • “A structure cannot follow anybody onto the floor”

    No panel reports a visit, and a media owner's audience figure is an estimate. An offer code on the sites, asked for on the enquiry slip and again at the measurement booking, is what ties an order to a road.

What we do

What we deliver for furniture stores and retailers.

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

  1. Approach roads mapped from your delivery addresses

    The routes last season's deliveries actually went out along, and the panels facing traffic moving towards the showroom on those roads.

    Result: The sites sit on the drive your customers already make.

  2. Last-turn and directional boards

    Smaller boards near the store giving the distance and the side to turn, with the media owner asked to show the permission held for each structure.

    Result: Fewer families overshoot the turn and give up for the day.

  3. Room-led artwork

    One finished room photographed for the panel, the store name at reading distance and the offer in a single line, set inside the safe area the frame leaves.

    Result: The board sells the room your floor is already arranged to sell.

  4. Cycle dated to the sale

    Mounting set for the week before the festival or year-end offer opens and held through the delivery promises, written into the order.

    Result: The flex is working while the visit is being planned.

  5. Dated proof of display

    Photographs of each site at mounting and again mid-cycle, with unlit or torn panels raised with the media owner during the cycle.

    Result: You are not paying for a board that came down in week two.

  6. A code the floor staff ask for

    An offer code carried on the outdoor sites alone, asked on the enquiry slip and at the measurement booking, logged site by site.

    Result: You learn which road brought the order, not just the walk-in.

How the result is measured

  • Sites booked
  • Proof of display received
  • Enquiries quoting the campaign route

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

How it is bought, and approved

A furniture showroom buys outdoor on the approach roads, and the owner and the civic body clear it first.

Last-turn boards
Directional boards sit on third-party walls and poles. Get each owner's consent and licence, and keep the arrow and the distance accurate, because a wrong turn costs a visit.
Highway frontage
A showroom on a bypass or highway may sit near land managed by the highway authority. Panels beside highways often fall under separate rules, so ask the media owner for the papers.
Sale dates drive the order
Open the display before the sale is announced and end it when the sale ends. An offer board left up afterwards annoys the visitor who arrives for it.
A Sunday visit to the site
Visit on a Sunday at the hour families drive. A panel hidden by a flyover or a tree on that approach is not worth a discount on the rate card.
Site list from delivery pincodes
List the pincodes you have delivered to and buy on the roads those customers drive, not on the road with the biggest crowd.
Offer code at billing
Print a code the floor staff ask for at the billing desk, and count the codes when the sale ends.

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 outdoor advertising work runs

  1. 1

    Draw the catchment

    We agree the roads, junctions and neighbourhoods your buyer moves through. It is almost always a smaller area than an owner first says, and a clinic in Nagarbhavi does not need the whole of west Bengaluru.

  2. 2

    Survey what is available

    We work through the sites on offer inside that catchment and go and stand in front of the ones worth looking at.

  3. 3

    Compare and book

    Sites are compared on facing, visibility, illumination and cycle length, then booked through the media owner or their agency at a negotiated rate.

  4. 4

    Print to specification

    Artwork is made to the exact panel size and delivered ahead of mounting day, with a proof you approve before printing.

  5. 5

    Monitor the cycle

    We collect mounting and mid-cycle photographs, and take up anything late, torn or unlit with the media owner while the cycle is still running.

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.

Are the small directional boards near the store worth buying?
For a showroom set back from the main road they matter more than the large site does. A driver who misses the turn on a service road usually does not come back the same afternoon. They cost little, and the media owner should still show you the permission for each one.
We have three showrooms in one city. Do we advertise all of them?
One panel per approach road, each naming the showroom it points to. A board listing three addresses is read as none of them. After a full cycle, compare the codes site by site and put the next round's money on the road that produced orders.
Can we put a customer's finished room photograph on the board?
Only with the customer's written consent, and with the photographer's permission if someone else took it. Without both, the board can be challenged. A staged room in your own showroom avoids the question and reads just as well at speed.
Can we put a hoarding on the roof or compound of our own building?
You can, with the building owner's consent, but it still needs the local body's licence. Rooftop structures are usually checked for safety, so ask what certificate the local body wants from an engineer before the media owner starts work.
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.
