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 metal finishing companies

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

  • “The finish master belongs next to the customer”

    When a repeat lot arrives, the polisher needs the approved finish, the compound and the notes from the last lot. If that lives in one person's memory, it leaves when they do.

  • “Samples without a record are lost orders”

    A sample finished, sent and never followed up is where orders leak away. A record with the date, the buyer and the next step turns each sample into something somebody owns.

  • “Walk-in customers vanish from memory”

    A few parts, a payment and a goodbye leave no trace. A note of name, phone and parts finished lets you message them when their season comes round.

  • “Seasons repeat and the record should know”

    Brass makers need festive finishing at the same time each year. A record of when each customer booked last year tells you whom to contact before the rush.

What we do

What we deliver for metal finishing companies.

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

  1. A customer and part record

    Each customer with contact, part types, metals, finish approved and master piece reference.

    Result: A repeat lot starts with the previous finish in front of the polisher.

  2. A sample tracker

    Stages from sample received to quoted, approved, lot agreed and collected.

    Result: You can see which samples are waiting on you or on the buyer.

  3. A seasonal contact list

    Customers sorted by the months their own demand peaks.

    Result: You contact makers before their rush instead of after.

  4. Simple tool setup

    A spreadsheet or low-cost CRM chosen to match who will enter the data, with a one-page guide.

    Result: The tool is one your supervisor will actually open.

  5. Lot-return log

    A record of lots returned for finish mismatch, with cause and customer.

    Result: Repeat faults are visible by customer and finish.

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.

  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 CRM work runs

  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.

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
Do we need paid software?
Not at the start. A well-kept sheet works for a small shop, and a CRM becomes worthwhile when several people handle enquiries. We help you choose based on who will enter the data.
Who should enter the data?
The person who takes the call or receives the part, at that moment. Data entered later from memory is incomplete, so we design the form to take less than a minute.
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.
