Home and office automation · Sales process
Turn a showroom visit into a signed order without losing momentum for weeks.
A sales process for home and office automation is the fixed sequence from enquiry to showroom visit to quotation to signed order, with a follow-up step at each stage. GullySales writes this with your team and gives you a record of where enquiries actually drop out.
Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What sales process means
A sales process is the fixed sequence of steps, such as enquiry, site visit, quote and order, that every deal is expected to pass through in the same order. GullySales writes this sequence down for your business and checks that every salesperson actually follows it.

For home and office automation
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The showroom visit needs a defined next step, not an open-ended goodbye”
A buyer who leaves the showroom without a scheduled follow-up call or a promised quotation date has no reason to come back to you rather than a competitor.
“Quotation revisions need a deadline attached”
A buyer asking for a revised quote to reduce cost will keep the decision open indefinitely unless a follow-up date is set at the same time the revision is sent.
“The second decision-maker needs their own touchpoint”
When a spouse or a business partner was not at the showroom visit, the process should include a way to reach them directly. Do not rely on the first buyer to relay everything.
What we do
What we deliver for home and office automation.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Written sales process from enquiry to signed order
A short, fixed checklist covering enquiry, showroom visit, quotation and order, with a follow-up step built into each stage.
Result: Every enquiry moves through the same reliable sequence.
Quotation revision deadline step
A follow-up date set at the same moment a revised quote is sent, rather than left open-ended.
Result: A quotation revision no longer sits undecided indefinitely.
Second decision-maker contact step
A defined way to reach a spouse or partner who missed the showroom visit, built into the process rather than left to chance.
Result: The second conversation that often decides the sale happens on time.
Drop-out point record
A record of where in the process enquiries actually stop responding, reviewed to see which stage needs the most attention.
Result: You know exactly which stage of the process is losing you deals.
How the result is measured
- Deals following the process
- Time spent at each step
- Drop-off rate by step
Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.
Steps of a sale
Take a villa or office automation enquiry from the first call to commissioning in fixed steps.
- Enquiry and construction stage
- Ask whether the building is at the wiring stage, the plaster stage or finished, since it decides between wired and wireless systems. Record the architect or interior designer involved.
- Showroom demo
- Show the scenes the buyer cares about: lighting moods, motorised curtains, the gate, CCTV on the phone. Note which features they tried for themselves during the demo.
- Site survey and conduit plan
- Visit with the electrical drawings and mark switch points, Wi-Fi coverage and the rack location. Record the conduit and wiring the site electrician must lay before you quote.
- Quote by room and by system
- Price lighting, curtains, security and AV room by room, with the brand of each device. Record which rooms were cut when the buyer asked for a lower figure.
- Order and install slot
- Take the advance and fix the installation slot against the interior finishing schedule. Note who on site can give access and power.
- Handover and AMC
- Train the family or the office admin on the app and the remotes, and offer the AMC in writing. Record the handover date and the AMC renewal date.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- You close by the owner's personal contact with the client, and the steps would be written and then ignored.
- Your quotation depends on a site survey you cannot yet schedule, and a process that promises one would break.
- The interior designer owns the client, and you have not agreed what part of the conversation is yours.
How it works

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

- 2
Define the stages
Clear stages and criteria are designed to match how deals genuinely progress and close.
- 3
Configure the CRM
The process is built into your CRM so it is enforced structurally, not just documented.
- 4
Train the team
Reps are trained on the new process and why each stage exists.
- 5
Review adoption
We check after rollout whether the process is being followed and adjust where it is not.
Where this fits
Three pieces of sales work, in this order.
This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. 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.
