Tailoring shops · CRM

Keep every measurement, order and delivery date where the shop can find it.

A CRM for a tailoring shop is the record of each customer's measurements, past garments, pending orders and family. GullySales sets up a simple record that fits the order book you already use and moves it off loose pages.

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 tailoring shops

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

  • “The notebook is the shop's biggest asset”

    The measurements of every regular customer sit in a book. If a page tears, the master leaves or the book is lost in a flood, the shop must re-measure regular customers, and some will not return for that.

  • “Order status lives in the master's head”

    Which garment is cut, which waits for lining and which is ready is known to one person. When that person is away, nobody can tell a customer at the counter, and the answer is a guess.

  • “Preferences are forgotten between orders”

    A customer who likes a deep back neck and a wide sleeve has said so once. If the record holds it, the next order starts from there. If not, the customer repeats the brief and wonders why.

  • “A complex system will not be used”

    A shop that buys a heavy software package and does not enter anything in it is worse off than before. The record must be as quick to fill as the notebook, or it will be dropped once the rush begins.

What we do

What we deliver for tailoring shops.

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

  1. Customer card design

    A card with name, phone, family link, measurements, preferences and past garments, in a form the shop will fill.

    Result: Any customer can be found and re-ordered in a moment.

  2. Order status board

    A simple list showing received, cut, stitched, trial and ready for each order.

    Result: Anyone at the counter can answer the status question.

  3. Move from notebook to record

    Existing measurements entered into the new record, with the old pages scanned and kept.

    Result: The notebook is no longer the only copy.

  4. Photo of the finished piece

    A picture attached to the order, with permission, for repeat orders and the gallery.

    Result: A repeat order starts from a picture of what was made.

  5. Who fills what

    A one-page note on who enters which detail and when.

    Result: Entries are made by the people who take the order.

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 special software?
Not at the start. A shared spreadsheet or a simple tool made for small shops may be enough. We choose with you based on who will fill it and what the shop already uses.
Is customer data safe?
Measurements and phone numbers are personal. Keep the record on a device the shop controls, limit who can open it and do not share it with outside parties. Follow data rules that apply to your business.
Can the record send reminders?
Yes, if the shop wants it. Delivery-ready messages and pre-season reminders can be sent from the record. Messages should go only to customers who have agreed to hear from the shop.
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.
