International tour operators · CRM

Track every traveller from first call to passport collection to the next trip.

A CRM for an international tour operator is a single record of every enquiry, quote, document and payment, so no traveller depends on one staff member's memory. GullySales helps you choose and set up a tool in ordinary use in India and shape its stages around your trips.

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 international tour operators

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

  • “A trip has several stages and a pile of documents”

    Quote, deposit, passport copy, photographs, visa filing, final payment and briefing all sit in one booking. When these are kept in chats and a notebook, a missing document is found only when the visa slot is already tight.

  • “Staff change and the history leaves”

    If an executive resigns, the quotes and promises go too. A shared record means the next person sees what was offered, what the family asked and what was said about the visa.

  • “One traveller, several trips”

    A family that went to Dubai becomes a Singapore lead, and a Europe lead later. A record that links every trip to the family shows when to ask again and what they liked.

What we do

What we deliver for international tour operators.

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

  1. A pipeline built around a trip

    Stages from enquiry to quote, deposit, documents, visa filed, final payment, travel and review, with a clear owner at each.

    Result: You can see which bookings sit at each stage.

  2. Document and passport fields

    Fields for passport validity, visa status and documents received, with a flag when something is missing.

    Result: A missing document shows on the record, not in someone's head.

  3. Group departure tracking

    A view of each departure showing seats sold, the minimum to run and the confirmation cut-off.

    Result: You can read at a glance whether a departure is on track.

  4. Reasons for loss

    A short list of reasons chosen when a quote is closed lost, including visa timing and portal price.

    Result: The list shows why quotes do not become bookings.

  5. Staff training and a data-entry rule

    A short guide on what to log and when, so the record stays truthful.

    Result: Everyone enters the same details in the same place.

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

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 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.

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
Which CRM should we use?
Choose a tool your team will use daily and that handles the stages above. Spreadsheets are fine at first, but they strain once departures overlap. Compare options on cost, WhatsApp support and ease, and take a trial.
Is storing passport details in a CRM safe?
Passports are sensitive. Limit access, use a tool with proper permissions, and ask your adviser about data protection duties. Do not keep copies in personal phones or shared chats.
Will staff actually use it?
They will if it saves them time and the owner reads from it. Start with fewer fields and add more once the habit is set.
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.
