Electrical and lighting dealers · Content marketing
Answer how many lights a room needs and the family shops with you.
Content for an electrical dealer is the advice asked across the counter: how many lights a hall needs, what an LED upgrade saves an office. GullySales writes those pages, gives the counter a short version to send, and keeps the numbers in them honest.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What content marketing means
Content marketing is writing articles, guides and pages that answer the questions buyers search before they are ready to enquire. This makes your business visible and trusted before the first call. GullySales plans this content from the first conversation onward, choosing topics that match real search demand rather than guesses.

For electrical and lighting dealers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The lighting plan question is asked in every showroom”
How many downlights for a twelve by sixteen hall, and what hangs over the dining table. A page that answers it with a layout is why a family walks in with a list.
“Owners want the load question answered before wiring starts”
Which cable size for a geyser or an air conditioner point, how many points a room needs, what a distribution board holds. Write it for the owner, not for the electrician.
“Commercial buyers want arithmetic they can check”
An office manager replacing forty tube lights wants the wattage, the hours and the sum. Show the working and let them put their own bill into it.
“Writing the warranty down prevents most arguments”
What a fitting's warranty covers, the proof needed, who raises the claim and how long it takes. Published once, it settles the conversation that otherwise ends in a review.
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.
A room-by-room lighting guide
How many fittings a hall, bedroom, kitchen and balcony of common sizes take, with the wattage and colour temperature for each.
Result: Families arrive with a list instead of a question.
A house wiring page for owners
What a wiring package covers, the points per room, cable sizes for heavy appliances and what a distribution board holds, in plain words.
Result: The owner can follow what their electrician is buying.
An LED retrofit calculation page
The wattage comparison, the running hours and the arithmetic an office can check against its own bill, with no saving promised.
Result: Commercial buyers ask for a site visit.
A warranty and claim page
What each brand covers, the proof to keep, who raises the claim and how long it takes, gathered in one place.
Result: Arguments are settled before they start.
A smart switch explainer without the jargon
What a smart switch does in one room, what it needs behind the wall and what it costs to add after the house is finished.
Result: People ask for it while the walls are still open.
A short version for WhatsApp
Each page cut down to a message with a link, saved on the counter phone and the showroom phone.
Result: The advice reaches the buyer while they are deciding.
How the result is measured
- Pages published
- Organic traffic
- Enquiries from content pages
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Questions buyers ask first
The questions a family or electrician asks across the counter, and the page that answers each one.
- How many lights does my hall need?
- A room guide by room type: how bright, which colour temperature (warm or cool white), and where to place fittings. End with an invitation to send a photo and the room size on WhatsApp.
- Which wire and MCB for my new house?
- A house wiring page: copper wire gauge by circuit (lights, sockets, AC), the distribution board and RCCB, and a line that the electrician sizes it to the load. Show the brands you stock.
- Is a BLDC fan worth the extra price?
- A fan page comparing a BLDC fan with an ordinary one using watts printed on the box, hours of use and the owner's own tariff. Let the reader do the arithmetic.
- Will smart switches work with my existing wiring?
- A smart switch page: whether the wiring has a neutral at the switch box, what the electrician must check, and which models work with which app. Say what does not work.
- What if the light fails after a few months?
- A warranty page: who gives the warranty (the brand or you), what voids it, what to bring in, and how a replacement is handled. Putting it in writing prevents most arguments.
- Can you supply on a builder or contractor quotation?
- A project desk page: how to send a bill of quantities, what you quote, samples, delivery to site and a GST invoice. A contractor needs to know this before walking in.
Who it is for
This is written for these electrical and lighting dealers.
- Electrical trade counters serving electricians and contractors
- Decorative and architectural lighting showrooms
- Switchgear, cable and wire distributors
- Fan, light and home electrical retail stores
- Electrical equipment suppliers for industrial and project buyers
- Solar and LED lighting dealers
- Smart home switches and automation dealers
- Multi-brand electrical dealers with a project sales team
Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- No one on the team can check the lighting and wiring advice before it goes out, and a wrong figure on a page harms the shop.
- You have not decided whether prices will appear on the pages, and the writing depends on that choice.
- Counter staff are too busy to share the questions customers ask, so the pages would answer questions nobody put.
How it works
How the content marketing work runs
The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.
- 1
Agree the plan
Topics and formats come from the content strategy and the buyer-question list. The volume goes into the written scope, agreed with you, not into a number quoted on a call.
- 2
Brief and draft
Each piece starts from its one-page brief and a short conversation with your technical person, recorded if they allow it, so the draft uses their words.
- 3
Check the facts
Your person marks the draft for accuracy and we correct it. Regulated subjects also go to your own adviser, because restrictions on claims apply to articles as much as to advertisements.
- 4
Publish and distribute
The piece goes live on your site, then out through the channels where your buyers already are.
- 5
Read the enquiries and adjust
Results are reported against the baseline recorded before work began. Topics that brought readers but no enquiries are changed or dropped. How often you are reported to is agreed in writing.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 0, foundation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
