Insurance advisory firms · Follow up systems
Make sure no review ends with a thank-you and a silence.
A follow-up system for an advisory firm is the set of calls and notes that carry a prospect from first enquiry to review, and a client from review to completed changes. GullySales designs the routine and sets it up with your team.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What follow up systems means
A follow-up system is the set routine for calling, messaging or emailing an enquiry more than once, since most buyers do not decide on the first conversation. GullySales sets the number and timing of follow-ups so an undecided buyer keeps hearing from you until they decide either way.

For insurance advisory firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The prospect who asked and went quiet”
A family asks about a review, hears back, and then the papers never arrive. The reason is not lack of interest. It is a pending worry about who will see the documents. A gentle follow-up that answers that worry brings more back than a reminder to hurry.
“The report delivered into silence”
The review report is handed over and the meeting ends. Weeks later the client has done nothing, because carrying out changes means contacting insurers and filling forms. A named person who calls to ask what is stuck is the difference between advice and results.
“Renewal is the point of greatest risk”
A client who got no contact from you since the review hears from another seller at renewal. A call or note before the renewal letter arrives keeps the relationship where it was built.
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.
An enquiry-to-papers sequence
A short set of messages answering the usual doubts about sharing documents, sent in your firm's voice.
Result: A prospect who goes quiet receives answers rather than a nudge.
An action tracker for agreed changes
A list of every change agreed in a review, with the owner, the next step and the date it was last checked.
Result: Open changes are visible to the whole team.
A pre-renewal contact routine
A reminder to the adviser to contact the client before each renewal, with a short script.
Result: The client hears from you before anyone else.
A routine for claim moments
A short guide for what the firm does when a client calls about a claim, and who is the named contact.
Result: A client in difficulty reaches a person, not a queue.
A record of lapsed prospects
A list of prospects who did not proceed, with the reason noted and a polite occasion to write again.
Result: Nobody is chased without a reason or forgotten without a note.
How the result is measured
- Follow-up completion rate

Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 2, qualification. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.
Step 1
Sales audit
Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.
Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.
Step 2 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
Step 3
Sales management
A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.
Start here if the team has targets and no routine.
