Weight management clinics · WhatsApp marketing

Answer the fee, diet and booking questions where patients already ask them.

WhatsApp marketing for a weight management clinic means using a business number to answer enquiries, send appointment reminders and share useful information with people who agreed to receive it. GullySales works on the reply wording, the catalogue of services, the consent line and the rules for who sends what.

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

What WhatsApp marketing means

WhatsApp marketing is sending updates, offers and reminders to customers on the app most Indian buyers already check daily. GullySales sets up business WhatsApp, writes the message templates and keeps the list consented and current.

For weight management clinics

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

  • “Patients ask on WhatsApp first”

    A person looking at a clinic's page taps the WhatsApp button instead of the form, to ask about the fee or whether a thyroid patient is accepted. A courteous, accurate reply decides whether they book.

  • “A personal number is a leak”

    When the desk uses a personal phone, patient chats leave with the staff member. A business account with named users keeps the history with the clinic and allows saved replies.

  • “Broadcasts that read as spam”

    Sending diet tips and offers to everyone who ever enquired earns blocks and reports. Messages go only to people who agreed, and each should be worth reading on its own.

  • “Sensitive details in chats”

    Patients may send reports, photographs or personal details over WhatsApp. The clinic needs a rule for what it accepts there, and a safe place to move it to.

What we do

What we deliver for weight management clinics.

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

  1. A WhatsApp Business profile

    Name, hours, address, description and a short catalogue of consultation types, set up on the business app.

    Result: A patient who opens the chat sees a clinic, not a stranger.

  2. Saved replies for common questions

    Wording for fees, first-visit details, languages, location and booking, approved by the practitioner.

    Result: The desk answers the common questions in the same careful words.

  3. A consent and opt-out line

    Text recording agreement to reminders and updates, with a simple way to stop.

    Result: Every contact messaged has agreed to it.

  4. Reminder and missed-visit templates

    Appointment reminders and a gentle missed-visit note, submitted as templates where the platform needs it.

    Result: Reminders go out in an approved, consistent form.

  5. A chat handling rule

    A short guide for the desk on what to accept in chat, what to move to a call and who answers what.

    Result: The team knows when to take a conversation off WhatsApp.

How the result is measured

  • Messages delivered
  • Reply rate
  • Enquiries from WhatsApp

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 whatsapp marketing work runs

  1. 1

    Understand current WhatsApp use

    We review how customers currently message you and how consistently, if at all, it is answered.

  2. 2

    Audit common questions

    We identify the questions that come up repeatedly, which decide what should be automated first.

  3. 3

    Set up automation and templates

    An automated first response and quick reply templates are built for the most common needs.

  4. 4

    Connect to the CRM

    Conversations are linked to customer records so context carries over between team members.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track response time and conversion, refining automated responses based on what customers actually ask.

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.

Is the WhatsApp Business app enough?
For a small clinic, yes. A larger clinic with a heavy enquiry load may need the business platform through a provider. Check the platform's current rules and pricing before choosing.
Can we send diet charts on WhatsApp?
A chart given to a patient after a consultation, at the patient's request, is a service message. We advise against sending plans to people who have not been assessed. Your practitioner decides what is appropriate.
Can we message old enquiries?
Only if they agreed to hear from the clinic. We help write a consent line for forms and chats, and we do not recommend messaging numbers collected without it.
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.
