Paint stores · Digital marketing

Put the map, the website and the chat to work for one counter.

Digital marketing for a paint store is the combined use of the map listing, a website, search, social posts and WhatsApp to bring repaint buyers to one counter. GullySales decides which of these your shop needs first and which can wait.

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 paint stores

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

  • “Too many tools spread a small shop thin”

    A store with one owner and two counter staff cannot feed a website, three social pages and a broadcast list at once. Picking the two channels that bring buyers, and keeping them current, beats a scattered presence.

  • “The map and the chat do the closing”

    Paint decisions end with a call or a visit. The map brings the nearby searcher, WhatsApp holds the painter and the quote. A site and a social page support these two rather than competing with them.

  • “Spending on ads without a record wastes it”

    An offer shown to homeowners across the city draws enquiries from areas you do not serve. Without a sheet that records the source of each enquiry, the owner cannot tell which spend sent a buyer.

  • “Seasons set the order of work”

    Waterproofing before the rains, repaint offers before Diwali, touch-ups through the wet weeks. A plan that follows the shop's own calendar places effort where buyers are about to decide.

What we do

What we deliver for paint stores.

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

  1. A channel choice for your shop

    A written note on which channels to use first, based on your buyers, your delivery area and the time your staff have.

    Result: The owner knows where effort goes and why.

  2. A seasonal marketing calendar

    The year laid out around repaint, waterproofing and the quiet weeks, with the messages and offers for each.

    Result: Each season has its plan before it starts.

  3. Source tracking for enquiries

    A simple sheet that records where each enquiry came from, filled in at the counter.

    Result: Spend can be read against enquiries.

  4. Listing, site and chat joined together

    The map profile, the website and the WhatsApp number carrying the same name, hours and offers.

    Result: A buyer finds the same shop wherever they look.

  5. A review of what worked

    A reading of the sheet against the plan, with the channels that earned their place kept and the others dropped.

    Result: The next plan is built on your own record.

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 paint store start?
With the map listing and the WhatsApp number, because they connect to calls and visits. A website follows. Social posts and ads come once these two are working.
Do we need to run ads?
Not at the start. Ads suit a defined offer aimed at your delivery area, such as waterproofing before the rains. We would run one only after the record shows where enquiries come from.
Who looks after it after set-up?
The counter staff handle replies and the sheet, the owner approves messages and offers. We can continue to prepare the posts and pages if you wish.
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.
