Foreign language institutes · CRM

Keep every enquiry, demo and level in one record the whole team can read.

A CRM for a language institute is the single record of each person from first enquiry through demo, enrolment, each level and renewal. GullySales sets up the fields, stages and reminders so your counsellors work from the same record.

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 foreign language institutes

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

  • “Enquiries live in three phones”

    One counsellor holds a call note, another holds a WhatsApp chat and the front desk has a register. When the learner rings back, nobody has the whole story and the learner repeats it. Some give up at that point. A shared record ends that, because anyone picking up the call can see the history.

  • “Level history is the renewal list”

    A learner who completed the first level of French is the best prospect for the second. If the record does not show the level, the date it ended and the examination planned, the invitation to continue is guesswork.

  • “A tool nobody updates is worse than a notebook”

    Elaborate systems fail when counsellors find them slow. A few fields filled in every time are worth more than a long list filled in rarely, so the set-up has to match how the desk really works.

What we do

What we deliver for foreign language institutes.

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

  1. A record layout for learners

    Fields for language, level, goal, deadline, source, batch and payer.

    Result: Each learner has one complete record.

  2. Pipeline stages from enquiry to level completion

    Named stages such as enquiry, demo booked, demo attended, enrolled and level completed.

    Result: You can see where learners sit at a glance.

  3. Reminders for counsellors

    A task when a demo is booked, a level is ending or an examination date is near.

    Result: No one has to remember from memory.

  4. Import of existing enquiries

    Your current sheets and registers cleaned and loaded in.

    Result: Past learners are not lost in the move.

  5. Counsellor training on the minimum fields

    A short guide to which fields must be filled each time.

    Result: The record stays complete without extra effort.

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.

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.

How the CRM work runs

  1. 1

    Map the sales process

    We record how a deal actually moves from enquiry to close in your business today.

  2. 2

    Configure stages and fields

    The CRM's pipeline and fields are built to match that process exactly, not a generic template.

  3. 3

    Set up automations

    Reminders, assignment rules and follow-up triggers are configured so routine steps happen without manual effort.

  4. 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Which CRM should we use?
The one your counsellors will actually open every day. That can be a spreadsheet to begin with, or a tool such as Zoho CRM or LeadSquared. We help you choose against your size and budget.
Can the CRM connect to WhatsApp?
Some can, through the WhatsApp Business platform. Check the platform's current rules and costs before you plan around it, and confirm with the vendor that learners can opt in and out cleanly.
What about learners' personal data?
Collect what you need, restrict who can open it and tell learners how you use it. Follow the data protection rules that apply to your institute. Keep the access list short and remove people who leave the team.
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.
