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

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

How it works
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 CRM work runs
- 1
Map the sales process
We record how a deal actually moves from enquiry to close in your business today.
- 2
Configure stages and fields
The CRM's pipeline and fields are built to match that process exactly, not a generic template.
- 3
Set up automations
Reminders, assignment rules and follow-up triggers are configured so routine steps happen without manual effort.
- 4
Test with real deals
We run the configuration against actual current deals to catch gaps before the whole team relies on it.
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.
