Abids, Koti and Sultan Bazar, Hyderabad
Sultan Bazar still bargains over the counter, but the younger buyer checks Google first.
Abids grew around the General Post Office and Abids Road, with jewellers, clothing and footwear stores, and a Sunday book market that still spreads along the pavements. Koti holds Bank Street, the bookshops of Badi Chowdi and the medical bookshops and surgical suppliers near Osmania Medical College.
A 45-minute audit call, a written and scored report within a few working days, then a monthly report against your baseline.
At a glance
Abids, Koti and Sultan Bazar are Hyderabad's old commercial core, where cloth merchants, jewellers, bookshops and surgical suppliers have served the same families for generations. GullySales helps these shops and wholesalers win the grandchildren who search online, and stop losing the phone and WhatsApp orders that arrive during the counter rush.
Sultan Bazar is the cloth market: sarees, dress materials, bangles and wedding shopping at prices that bring families from across the city and from the districts. Nearby, the Nampally Exhibition Grounds host the Numaish every January and February, one of the city's biggest shopping events.

How buyers decide
How buyers in Abids, Koti and Sultan Bazar find and choose a business
Many buyers here are regulars of decades, often the second or third generation of a family that has always bought cloth or books from the same shop. They come in person, bargain in Telugu, Urdu or Hindi, and trust the owner's word over any review.
The younger customers behave differently. A medical student wants to know the new edition is in stock before crossing Koti. A bride shortlisting bangles checks the shop on Google and sends a WhatsApp message before she makes the trip.
Wholesale buyers from district towns order by phone and collect by bus or parcel. They stay loyal to the shop that confirms stock quickly and sends the bill on time.
The problem
Where Abids, Koti and Sultan Bazar businesses lose orders.
What we see most often in Abids, Koti and Sultan Bazar, in the words owners use on the first call.
“Medical students buy the textbook online now”
Students from Osmania Medical College compare a Koti bookshop's price with an online seller before they walk over. Shops that take orders on WhatsApp, keep the new editions in stock and deliver to the hostel keep the students the discount sites would take.
“Phone orders from the districts get missed”
Wholesale buyers call the shop's landline or the owner's mobile during the rush. Orders written on a slip and lost at the counter go to the next shop that answers.
“Numaish brings crowds but no lasting customers”
Stallholders at the Exhibition Grounds meet thousands of shoppers in six weeks and keep none of their numbers. A simple way to collect contacts at the stall turns a winter fair into a year of repeat orders.
