Tourist guide services · CRM

Keep the traveller, the date and the language on file after the tour ends.

A CRM for a tourist guide is a simple record of each enquiry, booking and past guest, so nobody is forgotten between tours. GullySales sets up a record that fits a guide working from a phone, and teaches you to keep it current.

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 tourist guide services

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

  • “Enquiries live in a phone's chat list”

    Names, dates and group sizes sit in scattered WhatsApp threads, and an enquiry from last week is buried under this week's. A traveller who asked about a December date is lost unless a record brings them back.

  • “A guest on an agent booking is easy to lose”

    The agent holds the name, and you hold a first name on the day. With permission, a note of the guest and the tour lets you send a review request and, later, a message about the next visit.

  • “Repeat visitors and referrals show up late”

    A family returns two years later and asks for you by name, or a guest sends a friend. Without a record you cannot see which guests refer others, and so cannot thank them or ask again.

  • “A heavy tool will not get used”

    A guide on the steps of a fort will not open a complex system. A short sheet or a simple tool with a few fields, filled in from the phone, gets used because it takes seconds.

What we do

What we deliver for tourist guide services.

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

  1. A simple enquiry and booking record

    Name, contact, date, group size, language, site, source and status, in a sheet or a light tool you can fill from your phone.

    Result: Every enquiry has a row and a status.

  2. Stages that match a guide's work

    Stages such as enquiry, quoted, confirmed, tour done and review asked, so you see where each traveller stands.

    Result: You see at a glance who still needs a reply.

  3. A note on source for each booking

    Whether the traveller came from search, a hotel, an operator, a school or a friend, recorded at the start.

    Result: The record shows where your tours come from.

  4. A guest list with permission

    Past guests who agreed to hear from you, with the tour they took and the language.

    Result: You can write to past guests without guessing who agreed.

  5. A short routine for updating the record

    A few minutes at the end of the tour day to update statuses and add new enquiries.

    Result: The record stays current without a long job.

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
Do we need paid software?
Not at first. A sheet with clear columns can work for one guide. We recommend a paid tool only once the volume or the helpers justify it.
Is it safe to keep guest details?
Keep only what you need, store it somewhere you control, and use it only for what the guest agreed to. Check the current rules on personal data with your own adviser.
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.
