Unisex salons · Lead generation

Bring in new customers who will book a whole family, not one haircut.

Lead generation for a unisex salon is the work of turning a person nearby who needs a haircut, a facial or a group booking into an enquiry you can answer. GullySales works on where those enquiries start, how they reach the desk and who follows each one up.

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 unisex salons

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

  • “The enquiry is for a person, the value is a household”

    A customer asks about a beard trim. Behind the asker sit a partner who colours their hair and a child who dreads clippers. A lead sheet that records only the first service throws away the other two bookings the household could bring.

  • “Enquiries arrive while the chairs are full”

    Messages land on WhatsApp and Instagram at the busiest hour, when every stylist has hands in someone's hair. The unanswered message goes to the next salon on the screen, so the question is who is free to reply, not how many leads were created.

  • “Different sources bring different customers”

    A parents' group sends children's haircuts. A gym neighbour sends men's grooming. A wedding planner sends party bookings. Treating all three as one pool hides which source fills the quiet afternoon and which only fills Saturday.

  • “Walk-ins are leads too, and nobody writes them down”

    The person who peeks in, reads the price board and leaves is a lead. Without a name or a number from the desk, the salon never learns who they were or what stopped them.

What we do

What we deliver for unisex salons.

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

  1. A lead sheet by source and service

    One list where every enquiry carries its source, the service asked for and who else in the household might book.

    Result: You can see which source brought which kind of customer.

  2. A reply routine for busy hours

    A named person at the desk who owns messages while stylists work, with ready answers for price, availability and privacy.

    Result: Every message has a named owner and a reply.

  3. Source-specific offers

    A children's offer for school groups, a grooming offer for the gym next door, a party offer for planners.

    Result: Each source has its own message and its own count.

  4. A walk-in capture habit

    A simple card or phone entry at the desk for people who ask about prices and leave.

    Result: Walk-ins appear in the same list as messages.

  5. A household question at first contact

    One friendly line asking who else in the family or group would like a slot.

    Result: The first enquiry can become a multi-person booking in the diary.

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

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.

Which source should a new unisex salon try first?
Start with the one nearest the door: apartment groups, school parent circles and the gym or tuition centre next door. They are close, they are trusted and they put whole households in front of you. Add paid reach only after the desk can answer every message.
Is it worth paying for ads before the listing is right?
Fix the listing, price menu and reply routine first. An ad that sends a person to an unanswered number only pays for a lost customer. GullySales works on the route the enquiry follows before spending on reach.
How do we know a lead came from a particular group?
Ask at the first message or at the desk, and write the answer in the lead sheet. A single question such as how did you find us gives you a source for every booking and costs the customer nothing.
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.
