Building material distributors · CRM
Keep every site, rate and credit limit somewhere other than one memory.
A CRM for a building material distributor is a shared record of sites, buyers, rate requests, quotes, orders and credit position, so any salesperson can pick up an account. GullySales works on setting up the fields, the stages and the habits that keep the record current.
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 building material distributors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The account lives in the salesperson's phone”
When a salesperson leaves, the contacts, the rates quoted and the sites visited leave with them. A shared record keeps the account with the business.
“Credit and sales need to be seen together”
A salesperson who quotes without knowing the buyer is overdue creates a problem for accounts. A record showing limit and ageing beside the quote prevents it.
“A site has stages and a buyer has many sites”
The same contractor may run several projects at different stages. A record built only around the company misses which site needs what and when.
“A tool nobody updates is worse than none”
A system that needs long typing after every visit will be abandoned. The fields must be few, the entry quick, and the owner must read the record in reviews.
What we do
What we deliver for building material distributors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A record built around sites and buyers
Fields for buyer, site, stage of work, materials due, brands specified, salesperson and next visit.
Result: A salesperson sees what is due at each site.
A rate request and quote log
A list of each request with material, quantity, rate quoted, date and outcome.
Result: You can trace an order back to the quote.
A credit view beside every account
Limit, outstanding amount and overdue amount shown on the buyer's page, entered from your accounts.
Result: The salesperson sees the limit before agreeing to a load.
Import of existing contacts
A clean-up and upload of the contacts now in phones, notebooks and spreadsheets.
Result: The record starts with accounts you already hold.
Training on a short routine
A routine for the salesperson to update the record after each visit or call.
Result: The record stays current because the routine is short.
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
From your first message to the first report.
No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 CRM work runs
- 1
Map the sales process
We record how a deal actually moves from enquiry to close in your business today.
- 2
Configure stages and fields
The CRM's pipeline and fields are built to match that process exactly, not a generic template.
- 3
Set up automations
Reminders, assignment rules and follow-up triggers are configured so routine steps happen without manual effort.
- 4
Test with real deals
We run the configuration against actual current deals to catch gaps before the whole team relies on it.
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.
