Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh
Bareilly's zari and cane work reaches Delhi boutiques through someone else's phone.
Zari and zardozi workers are spread across the older parts of the city, many working from home for contractors who supply garment houses and boutiques. Cane and bamboo furniture is made in small workshops and sold from roadside showrooms, and the Parsakhera industrial area houses the town's larger factories.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.
At a glance
Bareilly makes cane furniture and zari-zardozi embroidery, most of it carried to Delhi boutiques and retailers by middlemen. Its hospitals serve families from across Rohilkhand. GullySales gives Bareilly workshops a direct line to buyers, so a designer who likes the stitch gets a written quote without a contractor in between.
Kutubkhana and the markets around it handle wholesale for the district, and Bareilly's hospitals draw patients from Pilibhit, Badaun, and Shahjahanpur. The Urs at the Dargah Ala Hazrat brings visitors from across India each year.

How buyers decide
How buyers in Bareilly find and choose a business
Zari buyers rarely come to Bareilly themselves. A boutique in Delhi or Lucknow sends a design through a contractor, who divides it among karigar households. The price the embroiderer hears is set several steps away from the customer. Direct buyers who do search find the work through Instagram reels and WhatsApp photos, and decide on close-ups of the stitch and a promised delivery date.
Furniture buyers are retailers and passing customers who compare price and finish, often from WhatsApp photos. Families choosing a hospital come from the surrounding Rohilkhand districts, ask relatives first, and then check Google in Hindi for the doctor's name and the fees.
The problem
Where Bareilly businesses lose orders.
What we see most often in Bareilly, in the words owners use on the first call.
“The contractor takes the order, and we only get the job work.”
Bareilly zardozi usually passes through one or two middlemen before it reaches a boutique. A unit with no photos or number of its own cannot be found by the designer who would pay more to deal direct.
“Buyers want to see the embroidery up close before they trust us.”
Zardozi is judged on stitch density and the metal thread used, which a blurry phone photo hides. Workshops that send clear close-ups and a short video win the boutique, and those that send one wide shot lose it to Lucknow.
“Furniture customers bargain hard because they cannot tell our cane from cheaper work.”
Roadside cane furniture looks alike in a photo. Units that explain the cane grade, the frame, and the finish give buyers a reason to pay for quality.
“Patients from Pilibhit and Badaun ask a relative, not Google.”
In Bareilly's hinterland the first recommendation comes from family, and Google is used only to check the doctor's name and timings. A clinic whose profile shows wrong hours or no Hindi information loses the patient at that check.

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.

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.
As agreed

What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

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.
