HRMS providers · Lead generation

Fill the demo calendar with HR managers who have a payroll problem today.

Lead generation for an HRMS provider means finding the companies whose attendance, leave and payroll work has outgrown a spreadsheet, and reaching the person who feels that pain. GullySales builds the pages, outreach and enquiry log that bring those companies to a first conversation.

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

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For HRMS providers

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

  • “The enquiry that matters names a headcount”

    An HR manager who writes that the company has a factory floor, three shifts and a payroll that takes days to close is a stronger lead than a founder who fills a form asking for pricing. Capture workforce type and headcount at the first touch, because they decide which demo to run.

  • “A trial sign-up is a lead only until it goes quiet”

    Software firms count a trial as a win on the day of sign-up. If nobody on the buyer's side is named to run a test payroll, the account is a contact, not a prospect. Lead generation has to include the push that turns the sign-up into real data on the screen.

  • “The CA brings clients in bunches”

    A chartered accountant who runs payroll for several small companies decides for all of them at once. Treat that person as a source of leads with their own offer, a demo account and clear terms, rather than as a stray name in the enquiry sheet.

  • “Plants and field teams are found, not waited for”

    A factory with a notebook for overtime does not search for software until something breaks. A list of plants and sales organisations in your city, with a small pilot offer, reaches buyers who would never have typed a search.

What we do

What we deliver for HRMS providers.

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

  1. Enquiry capture by company size and workforce

    A short form and call script that ask for headcount, workforce type, states and the present way of running payroll.

    Result: Every enquiry arrives with the facts a demo needs.

  2. A source-tagged enquiry log

    One sheet or CRM view that records whether each lead came from search, a review site, an HR group, a CA or outreach.

    Result: You can see which source produces demos that reach finance.

  3. Buyer pages that match the search

    Pages for a small office, a factory, a field team and a multi-branch business, each opening with the phrase that buyer types.

    Result: Four pages, each answering one kind of search.

  4. A plant and field-team outreach list

    Named manufacturers and sales organisations in your region, with a short message and a one-site pilot offer.

    Result: A list you can call through, with the offer written out.

  5. A CA referral offer

    A demo account, a one-page note and plain partner terms that you set and control.

    Result: A pack you can hand to an accountant at a chapter meeting.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

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

How it works

How the lead generation 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. 1

    Understand your capacity

    We agree how many enquiries your sales team can actually handle well, so the system is not built to overwhelm it.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We check what already brings in enquiries today, even informally, before adding anything new.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Content, search and paid channels are chosen based on where your buyers already look.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms and a follow-up process are built and connected end to end.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiry volume and quality and adjust the channel mix to match.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which source should we put money behind first?
Start with the one that already produces demos that reach finance. Search by headcount and CA referrals bring buyers who are further along than a general ad does, but the enquiry log decides, not a guess made before the first conversation.
Is a free trial the right first offer?
It suits companies that have one person ready to run a test payroll. For a factory or a larger business, a guided pilot on one site or one team brings in a more serious buyer. Offer both and see which the enquiry log favours.
Should we buy lists of HR managers?
Treat bought lists with care, as the contacts did not ask to hear from you and the data goes out of date. Build your own list from companies you can name and verify, and reach them with something useful.
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.
