Home cleaning companies · CRM

Record the flat, the gate pass and the cleaner the family asked for again.

A cleaning company's CRM is a household file rather than a sales pipeline. It holds the flat number, how the crew gets past security, the dog, the granite the customer does not want bleach on, who went last time and when the next visit is due. GullySales sets that record up and keeps it short enough that a supervisor fills it in.

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 home cleaning companies

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

  • “The record is the home, not the enquiry”

    Which tower, which floor, the lift the crew is allowed to use, whether the guard needs a list of names the day before, and where the water point is. Half of a bad first visit is logistics nobody wrote down.

  • “Which cleaner went last time is the field customers ask about”

    A family who liked a particular girl will ask for that person by name, and being unable to answer that question is how a recurring customer starts looking around. Store the name against the household and the request becomes easy to honour.

  • “A recurring contract needs the schedule to live in the record”

    Weekly and fortnightly jobs are lost to a visit that quietly did not happen while everyone assumed somebody else had gone. The schedule and the visit log belong in the same place, so a skipped date shows up before the cancellation does.

What we do

What we deliver for home cleaning companies.

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

  1. A household record with the access details in it

    Tower and flat, guard desk requirements, service lift rules, parking, water and power points, and the day the society allows cleaning crews in.

    Result: A new crew reaches the door without ringing the office twice.

  2. Customer instructions kept where the crew can see them

    No bleach on the granite, do not move the puja shelf, the dog stays in the bedroom: written against the household and read out at the briefing.

    Result: The second visit does not repeat the first visit's mistake.

  3. Staff assignment logged against every job

    Who went, on which date, for how long, so a request for the same person can be answered and a complaint can be traced to a shift.

    Result: You can send back the cleaner the family asked for.

  4. Recurring schedules and a missed-visit flag

    Each contract's visit pattern held in the record, with a flag the moment a scheduled visit has no completion against it.

    Result: A skipped clean is caught by you and not by the customer.

  5. Verification papers attached to the staff record

    Police verification, identity card and photograph stored against each cleaner and linked to the jobs they work, ready when a society asks for the list.

    Result: You answer a society's security question from the record.

  6. The short set of views the owner checks

    Open quotes, contracts due this week, jobs with no completion logged, and households that have not booked since their deep clean.

    Result: The owner sees the week without ringing four supervisors.

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.

What to record, and when

What a cleaning company should record about every household, and whether it needs software yet.

Flat or house, and what is in it
Write the type, size in BHK and the surfaces that matter: marble, granite, wooden floor, glass, sofa fabric. The crew should read this before going and not be surprised by the kitchen platform.
How the crew gets in
Record the society gate procedure, whether the guard needs a call, and who is home. Write the instruction, not the gate code or a key's location. Delete any access detail when the customer leaves.
Customer's do-nots
Note what to avoid: no bleach on that stone, no entry to the puja room, a dog that needs to be kept away. These details are what a customer remembers, and they decide whether the next visit is booked.
Who went, and when
Log which crew member or supervisor attended each visit, with the date. If something is missing or damaged, you can speak to the people who were there, and a regular customer gets the same crew.
Complaint raised and how it closed
Record each complaint with the visit, what the customer said, the fix and whether they accepted it. A pattern by crew or by job type shows up in this list long before it shows up in reviews.
Do you need software yet?
A sheet with one row per household is enough for a small crew. Move to a field-service tool when supervisors schedule several crews and recurring visits. Staff verification papers belong in an access-limited file, not in the household record.

Who it is for

This is written for these home cleaning companies.

  • Deep cleaning and one-time service providers
  • Recurring home maintenance cleaning companies
  • Sofa, carpet and upholstery cleaning specialists
  • Move-in and move-out cleaning services
  • Office and commercial cleaning contractors
  • Society and apartment complex cleaning contracts
  • Franchise-model cleaning companies

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You hold a handful of regular customers and one person knows their flats and keys, so a system would hold nothing new.
  • Supervisors will not fill a form, and a record kept only by the office would miss what happened at the door.
  • You plan to store gate codes or spare-key places in a system that has no clear owner for access.

How it works

How the CRM work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Map the sales process

    We sit with the people who sell and write down how a deal moves from enquiry to payment, including where it stalls.

  2. 2

    Agree stages, fields and owners

    Each stage gets a name your team already uses and a proof that the deal has left it. We agree which fields are required at which stage, and who may change what.

  3. 3

    Build on a copy

    Pipeline, fields and views are built on a trial copy where the CRM offers one, or in a separate pipeline where the plan allows. Live work stays untouched.

  4. 4

    Connect channels, then switch on automations

    Channels are connected first. Each automation is then switched on separately, so a misfiring rule is easy to find.

  5. 5

    Test with real deals

    The people who will use the CRM run open deals through it. Gaps are fixed before the whole team switches over.

  6. 6

    Switch over and trim

    Once real use shows which fields stay empty and which stages nobody uses, those are cut and the handover record is updated.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales management. A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

  1. 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.

  2. Step 2

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3 · you are here

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Can we run this on a spreadsheet?
Up to a point. A sheet that opens on a phone holds the household details fine while you are on one or two crews. Move to a proper system when supervisors start overwriting each other, or when you want to see every job a single cleaner worked last season.
Our supervisors will not fill in forms. How do we get this used?
Keep it to what they need anyway. Address, access, staff sent, time in and out, and anything the customer said. Five things typed at the gate on a phone is realistic. A fifteen-field form filled in at the office that evening is not.
Can we store gate codes or the customer's spare key location?
Avoid it. Write the instruction instead, such as 'call the guard, visitor approved by flat 402', and leave out the code. If a code must be kept, store it in a limited-access field, tell the customer, and delete it when the contract ends.
How do we record a complaint after a visit?
Add it to the household record with the date, the crew, what the customer said, what you did and whether they were satisfied. Do not argue in the note. When complaints repeat for one crew or one job type, you will see it in the list and can act.
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.
