B2B wholesale marketplaces · Follow up systems

Chase the pending document and the unplaced second order before they go cold.

A follow-up system for a B2B wholesale marketplace is the set of reminders, messages and calls that move a seller from interest to a live listing and a buyer from install to repeat order. GullySales writes the steps, the owners and the messages, and your team runs them.

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 B2B wholesale marketplaces

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

  • “Seller onboarding stalls on small pending items”

    A wholesaler agrees on the call, then the GST certificate, the rate sheet or the product photographs never arrive. Without a named owner and a next date, a willing seller drifts away and the team chases by memory.

  • “The first order needs a nudge at the right moment”

    A buyer who registered, browsed and left has not decided against you. A call or message tied to what they looked at, or to stock arriving in their pincode, restarts the conversation. A generic offer message does not.

  • “Reorders depend on a reminder that matches the last purchase”

    A shop owner who bought detergent from a listed seller may run low without noticing. A message naming the item, the last rate and the seller, with a one-tap reply, saves a trip to the local wholesaler.

  • “Silence after a complaint costs repeat orders”

    A late delivery or a short shipment left unanswered turns a buyer back to the old supplier. A follow-up that confirms the issue is recorded, and who is resolving it, protects the next order.

What we do

What we deliver for B2B wholesale marketplaces.

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

  1. A seller onboarding checklist with reminders

    Each step with an owner, a next-action date and a reminder message for documents, catalogue and rates.

    Result: A seller's pending step and next contact date are visible on the record.

  2. A first-order activation script

    A call and message script for registered buyers who have not ordered, with each reason for hesitation logged.

    Result: Every call leaves a reason that can be counted.

  3. Reorder reminder templates

    WhatsApp templates by product group that name the item, the last rate and the seller.

    Result: The team sends a reminder from the buyer's own purchase history.

  4. A complaint and delivery follow-up routine

    Steps for acknowledging a delivery problem, recording it and informing both buyer and seller.

    Result: Each complaint has an owner and a recorded outcome.

  5. A dormant buyer and seller list

    Accounts with no order or no stock update, grouped by how long ago the last action was, with a message for each group.

    Result: The team can see who has gone quiet and reach them with a purpose.

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

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the follow up systems work runs

  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.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Should follow-up be automated?
Reminders and message templates can be automated, but the call to a seller deciding to list should stay with a person. We mark which steps suit automation and which need a call, and we help you check each platform's current messaging rules.
How often should we contact a buyer?
It depends on how the buyer purchases, which your order history shows. A product bought regularly invites a reminder near the time of reorder. We do not set a fixed schedule for your whole base, and avoid messaging that feels like spam.
What do we do about sellers who stop updating stock?
Ask why, first. The seller may be waiting for orders or may find the update process tiresome. A follow-up that offers a simpler way, such as a WhatsApp update, is better than a warning. Record the reason so the team sees the pattern.
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.
