Flight booking agencies · Follow up systems

Answer the fare enquiry, then keep answering until the traveller decides.

A follow-up system for a flight booking agency is the set of steps after a fare is sent, covering who chases, with what message and when to stop. GullySales works on the reply formats, the reminders and the record that stops a quoted traveller from being forgotten.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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 flight booking agencies

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

  • “A quoted fare is not a booking”

    The traveller says they will think and disappears. Without a planned follow-up, the quote is the end of the conversation, and the next message the traveller sees is from the agent who did follow up.

  • “Fares and seats move, so the message must too”

    A chase that repeats the old quote is stale. A follow-up should carry the current fare, the date the traveller named and a line saying what has changed, which gives a reason to reply.

  • “After the ticket, the work is still open”

    A reschedule, a web check-in question or a refund query arrives after payment. A follow-up system covers the period around travel, so the customer who needed help is remembered kindly and returns.

  • “Too many chases lose the traveller”

    Messages sent every day read as pressure. The system sets a small number of steps, each with a purpose, and then stops, leaving the door open without nagging.

What we do

What we deliver for flight booking agencies.

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

  1. A fare reply format

    A fixed structure showing the total, the service fee, what the fee covers, the date the fare was checked and a single next step.

    Result: Every quote reads the same and is easy to compare.

  2. A chase sequence with a stop

    Two or three drafted follow-ups with a stated purpose each and a clear point where chasing ends.

    Result: Staff chase with a plan, not by mood.

  3. Pre-travel and post-travel messages

    Drafts for the ticket issue, the reminder before departure and a check after return that asks for a review.

    Result: The customer hears from you at the points that matter.

  4. A pending-enquiry list

    A view of quoted travellers who have not replied, sorted by travel date, shown each morning to the counter.

    Result: No quoted traveller sits unseen.

  5. A rule for when to hand over

    A note of when an enquiry moves from the counter to the owner, such as large groups or unusual fares.

    Result: Complicated enquiries reach the right person.

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

How the follow up systems 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

    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.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 2, qualification. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  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 · you are here

    Sales process design

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

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

How many follow-ups are too many?
Two or three, each with a new reason to reply, is a reasonable plan. Beyond that the message becomes pressure, so end with a note that you are available when the traveller is ready.
Can the follow-up be automated?
Reminders and scheduled messages can be, where the platform's current rules allow. Keep the fare and the personal note human, because travellers notice a message that no one wrote.
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.
