GullySales

Corporate training companies · CRM

Record every programme enquiry, proposal and vendor renewal in one place.

A CRM for a corporate training company is the record of every client, buyer, enquiry, proposal, purchase order and vendor registration, kept apart from the trainer calendar and the accounts. GullySales sets up the fields a training business needs and gets your sales team and trainers to keep them current.

A 90-minute audit call and a written, scored report. Turnaround, reporting and term are agreed in writing after the audit.

Colleagues review customer records and a sales pipeline on a monitor

What CRM means

A CRM is the record where every enquiry, call and quote is kept against a customer, replacing separate notebooks, spreadsheets and memory. GullySales sets up or cleans an existing CRM and reports from it by enquiry outcome rather than by activity logged.

For corporate training companies

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “The trainer calendar is not the client record”

    Dates and venues sit in a shared calendar. Who asked, who approved and which proposal was lost sit nowhere a sales head can read.

  • “Vendor registrations lapse unseen”

    Empanelment with a large client carries a validity date, a document list and a renewal. The date is in an email from a year ago.

  • “Contacts leave with the person”

    The HR head's number is on the salesperson's phone and the trainer's WhatsApp. When either leaves, the account relationship leaves with them.

What we do

What we deliver for corporate training companies.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Company, buyer and role records, linked

    Each company with its HR, L&D, business-head and procurement contacts, so a change of person does not lose the account.

    Result: Account knowledge survives a resignation.

  2. A proposal log with the reason for each result

    Every proposal with programme, headcount, version sent, date, outcome and the reason, won or lost.

    Result: You can see why proposals fail.

  3. Vendor registration fields with renewal reminders

    Registration status, vendor code, validity date and documents on file, entered for every company where you are empanelled.

    Result: Renewals are done before they lapse.

  4. Programme history by account

    What each client bought, when it ran, how many attended and the feedback summary, in one view.

    Result: The next call starts from what was already delivered.

  5. A short source pick-list

    RFQ, vendor portal, HR email, LinkedIn, referral, open-batch form, WhatsApp, HR forum and trainer network.

    Result: You see which source brings orders.

  6. A session on what to enter

    An agreed set of fields each salesperson and trainer fills after a call or session, checked in the sales review.

    Result: The record stays true after the first fortnight.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries logged in the CRM
  • Data completeness
  • Reports generated from CRM data

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

What to record, and when

What a training company should record for every buyer and programme, and whether it needs software yet.

Buyer, role and who else decides
Enter the HR head, the business head and the procurement contact on one account. After each call, add who else will have a say, since the briefing contact rarely approves alone.
The problem and the programme asked for
Record the problem in the buyer's words before the programme title. Leadership programme is a label; first-time managers losing their teams to resignations is the brief to design from.
Headcount, city, format and dates
Log participants, city, whether it is in-house, online or an open batch, the language and the wanted dates. A proposal that misses one of these needs a second call.
Proposal version and what happened
Note which version was sent, to whom, the reason for a win or a loss, and the competitor named. Read the losses before changing your rate or outline.
Vendor registration and renewal date
For every client where you are empanelled, store the vendor code, documents filed and the validity date, with a reminder set early enough to renew before it lapses.
Do you need software yet?
A shared sheet is enough while one person handles every account. Move to a CRM when several people share clients, or when a renewal or a proposal slips past unnoticed.

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You want a guaranteed Google ranking or a guaranteed number of leads. Nobody honest can promise either.
  • You need enquiries by next week and have nobody to answer them.
  • You want posts and reach reported, not enquiries and orders.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Free audit call

    90 minutes with whoever handles your enquiries: how they arrive, how fast they are answered, where they are lost.

  2. After the call

    Written, scored report

    Six areas scored, fixes ranked by return and cost. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come with it, in writing.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    Enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    Usually the cheapest one on the report: reply time, a follow-up sequence or the marketing-to-sales handover.

  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.

How the work runs for corporate training companies

  1. 1

    Audit the last year of proposals

    We trace where each enquiry came from, how fast it was answered, which proposals were sent and why each was won or lost, using your emails and the sales sheet.

  2. 2

    Fix the record and the reply

    One enquiry and RFQ record, a needs-conversation sheet and saved replies for each source, with a named owner for the shared inbox.

  3. 3

    Build the pages and the empanelment pack

    A page for every programme, trainer profiles with permission, a company details page and one folder of vendor documents.

  4. 4

    Reach the buyers before budgets are set

    Search, LinkedIn, permitted email and past clients lined up ahead of each company's planning period, with effort moved to the sources that produce proposals.

  5. 5

    Follow through to the purchase order

    Each proposal followed to a PO, a repeat order or a recorded no, and reported against the baseline taken at the start.

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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Is a spreadsheet enough for a training firm?
While one or two people handle all the clients, yes, if it has one row per enquiry and a column for next step and date. Move to a CRM when proposals, renewals and several account owners make the sheet impossible to scan.
Our trainers will not update anything. What works?
Ask only for what they know best: the attendance, the feedback summary and any new need they heard in the session. Have the coordinator enter it from a one-page sheet, and run the account review from the CRM screen.
Clients message trainers on WhatsApp. How do we record that?
Ask trainers to forward any message that carries a new need or a date change to the sales inbox, and enter it in the account note. Put a business number on every proposal so new requests come to the firm.
Who owns the contacts if a salesperson or trainer leaves?
The company, provided the contacts sit in a company system and the employment terms say so. Move numbers into the CRM now, not in a notice period, and ask a legal adviser to word the clause.
Should we sell the programme or the trainer?
Sell the programme and show the trainer as part of it. A buyer who falls for one facilitator takes the account with them if the person leaves. Put trainer profiles beside each programme, and keep the client relationship with a named account owner in the firm.
Do we need to be empanelled with large companies?
Only if they are the buyers you want. Empanelment brings repeat work but costs paperwork and, often, a lower rate. Keep your documents in one folder and apply to companies you chose, instead of every portal that sends an invitation.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped in the free audit 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 the audit, 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?
Fixes to reply time, follow-up and your Google Business Profile are the quickest to show, because the enquiries already exist. Ads can follow soon after follow-up is in place. SEO and content take longer. How long each takes depends on your business, and the audit tells you which applies to you. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you meet on the audit call. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
