Mortgage brokers and loan officers · Follow up systems

Loans are lost in the silence after the pre-approval letter.

A follow-up system for a mortgage broker is the set of scheduled calls and messages that keeps contact alive with borrowers, agents and past clients between transactions. The buyer rarely decides on the day of the first call. GullySales writes the sequences and sets the reminders so no pre-approval, enquiry or past client is left unanswered.

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 mortgage brokers and loan officers

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

  • “The house hunt is a long gap with no contact”

    A borrower who holds a letter may search for a property for months. If the lender is silent through that stretch, the agent who wins the offer names whichever lender is in the agent's phone.

  • “A new enquiry cools while it waits”

    A borrower who submits a form is comparing lenders at that moment. The call that comes after a pause reaches someone who has already spoken to another originator.

  • “Agents remember the last lender who called”

    A referral bench decays quietly. An agent who sent loans last year and heard nothing since has no reason to think of you when the next buyer asks.

  • “A rate move punishes the unprepared”

    When rates fall, past borrowers get calls from every competitor. The broker who already had the segment, the approved message and a call plan reaches them first.

What we do

What we deliver for mortgage brokers and loan officers.

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

  1. A pre-approval follow-up sequence

    A set of calls and messages for each borrower holding a letter, covering the search period and the moment an offer is accepted.

    Result: Borrowers stay in touch with you while they look at houses.

  2. A new-enquiry response routine

    A rule for who picks up a lead, in what order channels are tried, and what the first call asks.

    Result: Each enquiry has one owner and a recorded first call.

  3. An agent contact rhythm

    A schedule of useful touches for agents on your bench, based on how much they send, with a note of each one.

    Result: A quiet agent is noticed before the silence becomes permanent.

  4. Anniversary and equity messages

    Yearly contact for past borrowers, written without a product pitch and cleared with your compliance officer.

    Result: Past clients hear from you before a competitor writes to them.

  5. Task reminders inside the CRM

    Next-step reminders attached to each file and contact, so nothing relies on memory.

    Result: The day starts with a list of who to call.

How the result is measured

  • Follow-up completion rate
  • Average number of follow-ups before close
  • Enquiries closed after repeat follow-up

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 follow up systems work runs

  1. 1

    Measure today's reply time

    From last month's enquiries, we measure how long each waited for a first reply and how many follow-ups it got.

  2. 2

    Agree targets and the sequence

    We set reply targets and the follow-up sequence with your team, based on its real hours and workload.

  3. 3

    Set up templates, tasks and ownership

    Templates, first-call questions, CRM tasks and named owners go live, with cover for leave and weekends.

  4. 4

    Track and adjust every month

    Reply time and follow-up completion are reported against the baseline, and the routine is changed where it is not kept.

    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.

  • Hours that fit your day, agreed up front

    Which hours we overlap with yours is settled before any work starts, so you know when a reply is coming and when it is not.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can follow-up be automated without sounding like a robot?
Part of it can. Reminders and scheduled emails can be automated, while calls to borrowers and agents stay human. We write messages in your originator's voice and leave the conversation itself to the licensed person.
Who may we text or call from our old list?
That depends on consent, the do-not-call registry and your state's rules, and advertising rules differ by state, so check with your compliance officer or attorney. We scrub the list against what you can show and work only what remains.
How do we stop follow-up annoying borrowers?
Give each contact a clear reason to hear from you and an easy way to say stop. We keep each sequence short and end it when the borrower replies, applies or asks to be left alone.
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.
