Managed IT service providers · Lead generation

Reach the company in the month its IT executive resigns or its auditor arrives.

Lead generation for a managed IT provider means being in front of a company when its IT arrangement changes: a resignation, a growth spurt, an audit or a falling-out with the current vendor. GullySales sets up the channels that hear about those moments, the questions that sort an agreement from a one-off job, and a record of every enquiry with its seat count.

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 managed IT service providers

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

  • “Most callers want a fix, not an agreement”

    A broken printer or a laptop price is a break-fix job. Treating every call as a managed services lead fills the pipeline with people who will never sign.

  • “The best leads have a date attached”

    A company whose vendor agreement ends in March, or whose ISO surveillance audit falls in autumn, will decide on a known day, and that day is seldom written down.

  • “Introductions arrive with no record”

    A CA mentions you to a client over the phone, the founder sends a WhatsApp a week later, and nobody notes who sent the work or thanks them for it.

What we do

What we deliver for managed IT service providers.

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

  1. Five questions that sort an agreement from a call-out

    Number of users and devices, who looks after IT today, when that arrangement ends, what prompted the call and who signs, asked on every first call.

    Result: Break-fix requests stop crowding the pipeline.

  2. Trigger pages with their own offers

    A takeover check for companies whose IT person is leaving and an audit-readiness review for those facing a questionnaire, each with its own short form.

    Result: Enquiries arrive already carrying a reason to sign.

  3. Lead-sharing terms with vendors and distributors

    Written terms with the Microsoft, security and backup partners who pass you leads, covering how fast you reply, who owns the account and how the outcome is reported back.

    Result: Partner leads get answered, and partners keep sending them.

  4. An enquiry register counted in seats

    Every call, form, WhatsApp and introduction logged with users, devices, source and the date the current arrangement ends.

    Result: You can see the pipeline in seats, not just names.

  5. A call-back date for every 'not now'

    Prospects tied to another vendor given a follow-up date a few weeks before their term ends, with the reason to call written beside it.

    Result: Last year's polite refusals become this year's assessments.

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.

Where enquiries come from

Where a managed IT provider's next agreement comes from, and what to note when it arrives.

Introduction from a chartered accountant
Note the CA's name, the client company and what the CA noticed, such as a new entity or an audit gap. Call the founder that day and send the CA a short thank-you.
LinkedIn message from a founder or COO
Record the company size, the sender's role and the trigger they mention. Reply in the same thread with two questions about users and the current setup before offering a call.
Website form asking for outsourced IT
Ask for users, locations and the current IT arrangement on the form itself. Reply with an assessment slot, and record which page the form was sent from.
Lead passed on by Microsoft or a distributor
Log the partner, the product the buyer asked about and the partner contact. Reply to the buyer first, then tell the partner what happened, as their programme expects.
A former client contact at a new company
Office managers who liked working with you change jobs. Record the old and new employer, and ask whether the new company has anyone looking after its IT.
Customer security questionnaire or audit request
Note the deadline, the standard named and who in the company owns the reply. Offer a scoped review against that deadline instead of a general pitch.

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 lead generation work runs

  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.

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.

Tell us what you need
Should we buy leads from directories or data sellers?
Not lists of names. A bought list of companies with no trigger produces calls nobody wants. Paid enquiries from IndiaMART or JustDial are worth a trial only if you log them separately and check how many ever reach an assessment.
The same company reached us through a distributor and through our website. Whose lead is it?
Agree the rule in writing before it happens. A common one is that the first recorded contact owns it, with the date and time as proof. Merge the two records so the prospect has one conversation, not two salespeople.
When is a managed IT enquiry qualified?
When you know the number of users, who decides, what they run today and a date they need to change by. An enquiry without the date is interest, not a lead. Book an assessment once at least the users and the decision maker are known.
How do we count leads from events and association meetings?
Log every conversation that ends with a promised follow-up, with the event's name as the source. A visiting card in a drawer is not a lead. Count it once a second conversation is booked.
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.
