Shoe repair shops · CRM

Keep a record of every pair, so the next message names the right shoe.

A CRM for a shoe repair shop is a simple record of who left what, what was done and when to speak to the customer again, kept in a sheet or app the counter staff will use. GullySales sets up the fields, the habit and the reminders.

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 shoe repair shops

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

  • “A paper token ties the shoe but not the person”

    The token matches a pair to a heap on the shelf. It does not say who owns the pair once it is collected, so the shop has no phone number to message about the second pair in the cupboard.

  • “The item history is the useful field”

    Brown brogues resoled, a bag handle restitched, school shoes mended: that one line lets a later message name the right item. A message that names the pair is read; a general offer is ignored.

  • “Batch customers need an account view”

    A school, a plant or an office has a contact, an agreed rate, a collection day and a last batch. Held in one place, these let the next visit start where the last one ended.

  • “A tool nobody updates is worse than none”

    A register with an overlong list of columns is left blank by the second busy day. Few fields, filled at drop-off, beat a clever system filled in once.

What we do

What we deliver for shoe repair shops.

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

  1. A short list of fields

    Name, phone, item, fault, repair, price agreed, source and date, kept to what can be typed at the counter in moments.

    Result: A drop-off takes the same few seconds every time.

  2. Stages from received to collected

    Received, quoted, in work, ready and collected, so any person at the counter can see where a pair stands.

    Result: No pair is lost between the bench and the shelf.

  3. A reminder list for the second pair

    A view that shows customers whose last repair is old enough to ask about another, with a message to send.

    Result: A message names a real item.

  4. An account sheet for schools and plants

    Contact, agreed rate, collection day, last batch and the person who approves the bill.

    Result: A batch buyer is greeted by name and history.

  5. A choice between a sheet and an app

    A shared spreadsheet or WhatsApp Business labels, picked for what your staff will use rather than for the number of features.

    Result: The tool matches the habits at the counter.

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.

Do we need paid software?
No. A shared spreadsheet or the labels in WhatsApp Business carry the whole record for a shop of this size. Move to an app only when the sheet cannot do what you need.
What customer details should we keep?
Keep the name, the phone number, the item and the repair. Tell the customer you will message about their pair, and ask before using the number for anything else.
Our staff forget to write things down. What then?
Make the entry part of giving the token, so a pair is not accepted without a line in the register. GullySales sets up the habit with you and checks that the fields are being filled.
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.
