Channel opportunity generation and follow-up · Channel and partners

Help your partners find their own leads instead of waiting for walk-ins.

Many partners sell only to whoever walks in or calls, with no active effort of their own to generate enquiries. When footfall is good, they look successful. When it slows, so does their business, and there is no local activity picking up the gap.

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

Editorial illustration for Channel opportunity generation and follow-up

In one paragraph

Channel opportunity generation and follow-up helps dealers, distributors and resellers generate their own enquiries and follow them up, instead of relying only on footfall or the leads you hand them. GullySales builds the local lead activity and the follow-up discipline for partners who are currently passive.

This service builds simple, repeatable ways for partners to generate their own opportunities: local advertising, WhatsApp outreach to their existing customer list, or a stall at a relevant local event. It pairs this with a follow-up discipline, so those enquiries do not go cold the way passive walk-ins often do.

The problem

Does this sound like your business?

What owners tell us on the first call, in their words.

  • “A partner's business rises and falls entirely with footfall”

    When passing traffic is strong, sales look healthy. When it drops, nothing local is happening to replace it, because the partner has never generated a lead of their own.

  • “Leads handed to partners disappear into silence”

    You pass on an enquiry from your own marketing and the partner either never calls or calls once and gives up, with no visibility into what happened.

  • “Nobody has given partners a simple way to generate their own enquiries”

    Partners assume lead generation is your job, because nobody has shown them a repeatable, low-cost way to do it themselves.

What we do

Everything that is included.

Each deliverable, and what it gets you. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Local opportunity playbook

    Simple, repeatable local activities, a WhatsApp broadcast to past customers, a local offer, a small local ad, that a partner can run without needing a marketing team.

  2. Lead handoff and follow-up protocol

    A clear process for leads passed to partners, including how many follow-up attempts are expected and by when.

  3. Follow-up tracking

    Enquiry outcomes tracked back from the partner, so lead quality and follow-up discipline are both visible.

  4. Partner-level lead reporting

    A view of enquiries generated and converted by each partner, not just aggregated across the network.

  5. Coaching for weak follow-up

    Direct coaching for partners whose follow-up rate lags the network, rather than just flagging the number.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated per partner
  • Follow-up attempts per enquiry
  • Conversion rate by partner
  • Leads gone cold with no follow-up recorded

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Who it is for

This is written for you if these sound familiar.

  • Dealer or distributor networks that depend entirely on footfall or inbound calls
  • Businesses that hand leads to partners and see poor follow-up rates on them
  • Partners in a slow season who need their own local activity rather than a subsidy
  • Networks where the best partners generate their own enquiries and the rest do not

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Your partners already run active local marketing and follow-up well. Look at retail execution and merchandising instead
  • You need leads generated centrally by you, not by individual partners. That is demand generation on your own channels

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.

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.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

Engagement options

Ways to work with us.

Pick the size of commitment that fits. Every option starts with your brief and a conversation.

  1. Option 1

    The conversation on its own

    A call after you send your brief. It says honestly whether you need outside help, and many fixes are ones your own team can make.

  2. Option 2

    One fix, scoped

    Start with the fix that matters most, such as reply time or follow-up. The fee is in writing before anything starts.

  3. Option 3

    An ongoing programme

    We run the work, report against the baseline, and you renew on the numbers. The term and the reporting are agreed in writing first.

  4. Option 4

    Guidance for your own team or agency

    We plan, brief and check the work of your in-house team or current agency, instead of replacing them.

Your brief

Tell us what you need, and we will read it before we call.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Do you run the local marketing for each partner directly?
For a small, high-value partner base we can. For a large network we build the playbook and train partners to run it themselves, checking results rather than running every activity.
How do we know if a partner actually followed up on a lead?
A simple check-in, by call or a short form, closes the loop on every handed-off lead, so follow-up is tracked rather than assumed.
What if a partner refuses to do any of this?
That is useful information for segmentation and tiering. A partner unwilling to generate or follow up on leads is a different kind of partner to invest attention in than one who does.
Can this include WhatsApp outreach to a partner's own customer list?
Yes, this is one of the most effective and lowest-cost activities for a partner with an existing customer base, and we set it up as part of the playbook.
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.
