Unified communications providers · Lead generation

Find the offices that are losing calls and ask about those calls first.

Lead generation for a unified communications provider means reaching offices at the moment a phone problem becomes a purchase: a dead PBX, a new branch, a helpline that drops enquiries. GullySales works on the pages, outreach and call flow questionnaire that bring those offices to you with the problem already stated.

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 unified communications providers

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

  • “The trigger is an event, not a shopping list”

    Offices rarely browse for phone systems. A PBX fails, a branch is fitted out or an admissions line overflows, and only then does the owner search. Leads come from being present at that event, so campaigns are built around the event rather than around the product.

  • “A seat count is a weak enquiry”

    An enquiry that says only how many seats are wanted gives you nothing to plan from. The better lead names the branches, the peak hours and what happens to a call nobody picks up, which is the information the quote needs.

  • “Lead-driven buyers hurt most from a missed call”

    Real estate teams, coaching centres and clinics pay for advertising that ends in a ringing phone. Their missed calls are a cost they already feel, so they respond to a message about that cost sooner than to one about technology.

  • “Partners hear about the problem first”

    The IT firm that maintains an office is the first to be asked what phone system to buy. A lead that arrives through that firm comes with trust attached, if the firm has a clear note to pass on.

What we do

What we deliver for unified communications providers.

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

  1. Missed-call questionnaire

    A short sheet that asks for peak hours, branches, after-hours handling and the reports wanted, offered as the first step in every campaign.

    Result: The enquiry arrives with the facts a quote needs.

  2. Trigger-based landing pages

    One page each for a failing PBX, a new branch and a busy helpline, each opening on that situation.

    Result: A visitor lands on the page that matches the event that sent them.

  3. Outreach lists by buyer type

    Lists of clinics, coaching centres, sales teams and call centres built from your own customer and quote records.

    Result: Each list ties to one message and one questionnaire.

  4. Partner note for IT firms

    A one-page note an IT service company can pass to an office asking what to buy.

    Result: A partner can introduce you without writing anything themselves.

  5. Lead source sheet

    A register that records where each enquiry came from and how far it travelled.

    Result: You can see which source produced a pilot, not only an enquiry.

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.

What to capture or send

Capture the current phone setup and the calls being lost, since that decides which plan the office needs.

Current system
A landline PBX, an EPABX, mobile numbers shared by staff or an older cloud service. It tells the team what must be replaced and what can stay.
Number of branches and extensions
How many sites and how many people take calls. It sets the scope of the survey, not a price.
Missed or misrouted calls
Where calls are lost today: after hours, at a busy desk or between branches. It becomes the opening line of the pilot proposal.
Published numbers to keep
The numbers already printed on boards, cards and websites. A buyer who fears losing them needs the porting plan first.
Who decides and who objects
The office manager, the IT head or the owner. The talk differs for each, so note who raised the question.

Who it is for

This is written for these unified communications providers.

  • Multi-branch clinics, coaching centres and showrooms
  • Small and mid-size offices replacing a landline PBX
  • Real estate and lead-driven sales teams that need call recording and routing
  • Call centres and BPO teams
  • Hospitals and diagnostic chains with central appointment lines
  • Schools and colleges with admission helplines
  • Manufacturers with plant and head office extensions
  • Businesses moving to hybrid work with mobile extensions

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You cannot yet run a call flow survey, so leads would reach a quote with nothing to base it on.
  • Your porting process is not written down, and a lead who fears losing the number would see no answer.
  • You are targeting contact centres and offices with the same message, and the buyers in each would read it as meant for the other.

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 ask how many enquiries your team can answer well, who answers after hours, and what a good enquiry looks like. Without this, the system fills a funnel nobody is watching.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We read your call log, WhatsApp chats, enquiry sheet and platform dashboards. The baseline is recorded: enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Search and maps are chosen for people ready to buy, ads for people who are not yet looking, and content and referrals for trust.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms, tags, the lead record and the first-reply message are built and tested end to end. We submit test enquiries ourselves before any media money is spent.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    Enquiries are traced to source and judged by what became orders, not by volume alone. Channels that fill the sheet with poor enquiries are cut back. 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 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.

Should we advertise for every kind of office?
No. Pick the buyer types where you win pilots and write for them first. A clinic chain and a call centre need different messages, and one broad campaign serves neither.
What counts as a lead worth following?
An office that has described its calls, branches or a failed line. A bare request for a price per seat is an enquiry, and the questionnaire turns it into a lead you can plan for.
Should we advertise to every kind of office?
No. An office with two branches and a lost-call problem buys differently from a call centre buying seats and dialler features. Pick the buyer type you can serve now, name the problem that buyer has, and let other types come by referral until you build a pilot for them.
What counts as a lead worth following?
An office that names a lost call, a failing exchange or a new branch, and can say who decides. A request for a rate card alone is a price check. Record the problem and the decision-maker, and a lead without them gets a call-flow question before any quote.
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.
