Granite, marble and stone processors · Follow up systems

Chase the quotation until the buyer says yes, no or not this year.

A follow-up system for a stone processor is the set of calls, sample dispatches and reminders that carry a quotation from the day it is sent to a clear answer. GullySales works on the sequence, the reminders and the notes so that a rate sent for a large project does not sit unanswered.

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 granite, marble and stone processors

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

  • “A project quotation is sent once and then forgotten”

    The salesman sends a rate for a hotel lobby floor and moves on to the next call. The buyer is waiting for a second visit or a sample, and the supplier who calls again gets to quote against a decision that is still open.

  • “The decision-maker is not the person who enquired”

    The site engineer asks for the rate, the architect picks the stone and the owner signs the cheque. A follow-up that only calls the first contact never reaches the other two, so the notes need a name for each role.

  • “A sample sent and never discussed is a wasted board”

    A sample board reaches a studio and sits on a shelf. The call that asks whether the finish matched the drawing, and whether a full slab should be reserved, is where the board turns into a lot on hold.

  • “A hold on a slab expires without anyone noticing”

    A lot promised to one buyer blocks the same slab for the next. If the hold has no date and no reminder, a good lot stays idle and a second buyer is told it is unavailable.

What we do

What we deliver for granite, marble and stone processors.

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

  1. A quotation stage list

    Named stages from enquiry to sample sent, quotation sent, lot on hold, order confirmed and lost, with a plain rule for moving a quotation from one to the next.

    Result: Every open quotation sits at a stage anyone can read.

  2. A next-call date on every record

    A rule that no enquiry is closed without a dated next action, whether a call, a second sample or a visit to the yard.

    Result: No open quotation is left without a date for the next contact.

  3. Call notes by role

    A note format that records who enquired, who specifies the stone and who approves payment, with the last thing each said.

    Result: The next call speaks to the right person about the right worry.

  4. Sample follow-up script

    A short call plan for the days after a board or tile is dispatched: did it arrive, does the finish suit the drawing, should a slab be reserved.

    Result: Each sample leads to a conversation, not a silence.

  5. Hold and release list for slabs

    A sheet showing which lots are held for which buyer and until when, with a reminder to the salesman before the hold lapses.

    Result: A held lot is either confirmed or released on a known date.

  6. Lost-order reasons

    A short list of reasons recorded when a quotation is lost, such as rate, finish, delivery or another supplier.

    Result: You can read why orders went elsewhere across a season.

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.

  • 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
How many times should we call after sending a quotation?
There is no fixed number. Call until the buyer gives a clear answer or a date to decide, then call on that date. Each call should carry something new, such as a sample, a photograph of the lot or a delivery plan.
Will repeated calls annoy architects?
Calls annoy when they only ask 'any update?'. A call that brings a new photograph, answers a question on finish or confirms a lot is available is useful to a specifier, and they remember the supplier who made it easy.
Our salesmen keep notes in their own phones. What is wrong with that?
When a salesman leaves or is away, the quotation and the history leave too. Keep every note in one shared sheet or CRM so another person can pick up the call with full context.
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.
