Toy stores · WhatsApp marketing
Send three photographed choices by age and budget before the buyer leaves home.
WhatsApp marketing for a toy store is using the shop's business number to answer gift enquiries with photographs, hold toys and tell past buyers about the next occasion. GullySales sets up the replies, the catalogue and the broadcast rules for a small shop.
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 toy stores
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The gift buyer wants options on the phone”
A buyer on the way to a party sends a message asking for ideas for a girl of six. A reply with three photographed toys, each with a price, can be chosen from in a minute. A reply that says come and see wastes the one minute the buyer has.
“A catalogue beats a gallery of photographs”
The shop's business account can list toys with price, description and age. A parent can browse it from the chat and forward it to a spouse. Updating it as stock arrives keeps it honest.
“Broadcasts work only for people who agreed”
A list built from past buyers who said yes to messages reaches parents at the right time. A list bought, copied from a group or stretched to include everyone who ever called, brings complaints and a risk to the number.
“The message must sound like the shop”
A chat answered in stiff, copied wording feels like a call centre. Staff should write as they speak at the counter, with the same warmth, and the shop's greeting should say who is replying.
What we do
What we deliver for toy stores.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A business number with a clear profile
Name, hours, address, catalogue and a greeting message set up on the shop's business account.
Result: A new contact sees a proper shop on opening the chat.
A gift helper routine
A reply format that sends three choices by age and budget, with photographs and a way to hold the toy.
Result: A buyer can choose from the reply without visiting first.
A toy catalogue by age
Toys listed with photographs, price and age fit, grouped to match your shelves.
Result: A parent can browse and forward the list.
Consent-based broadcast lists
Lists grouped by child's age band and occasion, with consent recorded and a clear way to stop messages.
Result: Each message reaches people who asked to receive it.
Saved replies and labels
Stored wording for the common asks and labels to mark enquiries, holds, bulk orders and collected.
Result: Staff find any conversation by its stage.

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.
- 2
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.
- 4
Connect to the CRM
Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.
- 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.
