Vegetarian restaurants · CRM

Keep a record of every association, regular and fasting household you serve.

A CRM for a vegetarian restaurant is a simple record of guests, groups and enquiries, so the next festival message reaches the right people. GullySales works on setting up the record, the fields worth keeping and the habit of using it at the counter.

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

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 vegetarian restaurants

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

  • “The owner's memory is the current system”

    Which association booked in the last Shravan, which family needs no-onion meals, which tour operator sends a bus: nearly all of it lives in one head. When that person is away, the restaurant forgets.

  • “Dietary notes are the field that earns its place”

    Jain, no root vegetables, fasting dates, allergy: a guest who finds that the restaurant remembered these returns. A record with this one field filled in does more than a long form half completed.

  • “Group contacts change hands”

    A satsang secretary is replaced and the new one calls a different restaurant. Recording the committee, the contact and the date of the last booking lets you reach the new person.

  • “Consent matters for messages”

    A guest who gave a number for a booking has not necessarily agreed to festival promotions. The record should show what each person agreed to receive.

What we do

What we deliver for vegetarian restaurants.

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

  1. Guest and group record layout

    A simple sheet or tool with name, number, dietary notes, last visit, group type and consent.

    Result: Each guest has one line with the fields that matter.

  2. Entry routine for the counter

    A short routine for what staff record after a booking or an enquiry.

    Result: Bookings reach the record the same day.

  3. Festival list view

    A filtered list of guests who fast or follow Jain rules, for the festival message.

    Result: You can send a festival message to the right people.

  4. Group contact register

    Associations, trusts and tour operators with the contact, last booking and notes.

    Result: A change of secretary does not lose the relationship.

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.

Do we need paid software?
Not at the start. A shared spreadsheet is enough for a small restaurant if the fields are kept up. Move to software when the volume of enquiries makes the sheet slow.
Is it fine to store guests' numbers?
Store only what guests have shared and tell them how you will use it. Data protection rules apply to personal information, so check the current requirements with your adviser.
Who should be allowed to edit the record?
Give edit rights to the few who take bookings and keep the rest as readers. A record that everyone changes loses its fields and its meaning within a season.
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.
