Laravel elixir not found when running gulp in cli

It has been pretty frustrating finding the solution to this problem today, as I've tried searching on Google and went to all of different forums and websites in search of a solution, but none of them worked for me.

Is there anyone who could tell me what I could try in order to solve this? Facts:

1. Fresh Laravel installation
2. Ran npm install
3. Ran npm install gulp
4. Ran gulp
5. Got this error
