Insurance advisory firms · CRM
Keep every review, agreed change and renewal date against a name in one record.
A CRM for an advisory firm holds the client, the policies reviewed, the changes agreed and the dates that matter. GullySales sets one up around how your reviews actually run, and moves your scattered lists into it.
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 insurance advisory firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The agreed change is the thing that gets lost”
A review ends with a list: raise the health cover, drop the duplicate plan, update the nominee. The meeting is warm and the list lives in an email. Without a record that gives each item an owner, the client is left to carry it out alone.
“Renewal dates are the firm's calendar”
A client's renewal dates are the moments when someone else may call with an offer. A firm that tracks them can reach the client first with a question. A firm that does not tracks them in a head and loses them when staff change.
“Family and company records are shaped differently”
A family has several members, each with policies. A company has an HR contact, a finance contact and a policy schedule. One simple flat list serves neither, so the record must link people to policies and to each other.
What we do
What we deliver for insurance advisory firms.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A client record built around the review
Fields for the trigger, documents received, findings, changes agreed and each change's owner and status.
Result: Every agreed change has a named owner and a status.
A renewal calendar
A view of upcoming renewal dates by client, with a reminder to the adviser before each one.
Result: No renewal arrives without someone having seen it coming.
Family and company linking
Records that connect family members, or company contacts, to the policies each one holds.
Result: A second contact exists in every corporate account.
An import of your current lists
Your existing spreadsheets and contact lists cleaned and moved into the record.
Result: One place replaces the scattered files.
A consent and document log
A note against each client of what was agreed about use of their papers and details.
Result: The record shows what the client agreed to, in the client's own terms.
How the result is measured
- Enquiries logged in the CRM
