Personal branding · Consultants, coaches and advisers
Nobody books a trainer they have not watched work a room.
Personal branding for a corporate trainer is the evidence a learning and development manager needs before putting her own name on your two days: footage of you teaching, an outline that survives procurement, and writing that shows what you do when a batch turns hostile. GullySales builds it and keeps it running.

Where this sits
For corporate trainers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The buyer's fear is the feedback form”
A learning and development manager who books you has spent a budget, blocked a hall and pulled thirty people off work. If the scores come back poor, it is her judgement that gets discussed, not your content.
“Video is the sample and the profile is only the receipt”
Nobody hires a trainer from a paragraph. Where there is no footage of you in an actual room, the booking goes to whoever has some, however ordinary it looks.
“The slot repeats, so being remembered beats being found”
Induction batches every quarter, the sales kick-off in April, the compliance refresher before the audit. You are competing to be the name that surfaces when next year's calendar is drawn.
“If you work through training companies, your buyer is not the client”
Associates are booked by the firm, not by the company in the room, and what wins there is a different set of material. Decide which business you are in before spending on the wrong one.
What we do
What we deliver for corporate trainers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A showreel from a real room
Three minutes of you actually teaching, participants in the frame, filmed at a session you were already running. Not a studio piece to camera.
Result: A manager who has watched two minutes is most of the way to a booking.
One page for each programme
Duration, the batch size it works at, what participants do rather than what they learn, and the pre-work you need from the company.
Result: An outline that goes straight into an internal approval note.
Writing about why training fails
The manager who never follows through, the mixed batch where half have done it before, the two-day workshop bought for a problem that was not a skill gap.
Result: You read as somebody who has stood in front of that room.
An hour after a training room empties
An hour, usually about a batch that went badly and what you changed by lunch. Drafts come back to you before publication. No call means no material, and the money would do more advertising your open programmes.
Result: Material that sounds like a trainer rather than a brochure.
The empanelment pack
Everything a large company's procurement asks for, kept in one folder: profile, programme list, references you are permitted to name, GST number, PAN and your MSME registration if you hold one. Most trainers rebuild this from scratch every time a vendor form arrives.
Result: You answer a vendor form the same day it arrives.
The handout participants keep
A one-page takeaway with your name on it that stays on a desk for a year and gets photographed and forwarded to other teams.
Result: Bookings from people who attended somebody else's session.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries that name you or came through your profile
- Searches for your name, from Search Console
- Profile views and connection requests from your industry
- Speaking invitations, press enquiries and podcast requests
- Posts published against posts planned, and what held up the rest
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, then reported every month against it.
How it works
From your first message to the first monthly report.
No open-ended retainer. Each step has a point in time and something you receive.
01 · Day 1
Free audit call
45 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.
02 · Within a few working days
Written, scored report
Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope and fee come with it, in writing.
03 · Before work starts
Baseline recorded
Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later month has an honest comparison.
04 · Month 1
The first fix goes live
Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.
05 · Every month
Report against the baseline
What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words.
06 · Month 3 to 6
Renew on the numbers
The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. No twelve-month lock.
How the work runs for corporate trainers
- 1
Work out whether this is even your bottleneck
The audit call covers how enquiries reach you today. Plenty of owners come asking for this and leave with a report saying the company's own site is the weaker link, and that comes first.
- 2
Search your own name with you
We look at what a buyer sees today: every profile, old listing and photograph. Some of it you will want taken down, and some of it only you can take down.
- 3
Agree what you will and will not say
The subjects you know cold, the ones that belong to your clients, and the lines your regulator or association draws. Written down before anything is published.
- 4
Rebuild the profiles
The bio page, LinkedIn and the directories that matter in your field, done once and done properly.
- 5
The monthly rhythm
Interview, drafts, your approval, publication. The interview is the only part that needs you, and it is the part that cannot be skipped.
- 6
Hand it over
The subject list, the drafting notes and the calendar are yours. Plenty of owners keep it running themselves after a few months, and that is a fair outcome.
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 monthly 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 lock-in, no guarantees we cannot keep
Three to six months at a time. 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.
#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.
