Paper manufacturers · CRM
Keep one record of every merchant, converter, sample reel and open quote.
A CRM for a paper mill is the shared record of each buyer, the grades they take, the samples sent and the quotes pending. GullySales sets up the fields and the habits so that sales and accounts read from the same page.
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 paper manufacturers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The buyer list lives in several phones”
Each salesman holds contacts on a personal phone and in a notebook. When one leaves, the relationships go with them. A CRM keeps the account with the mill.
“Grade and volume are the core fields”
A paper buyer is described by the grade, the quantity per order and the delivery town. A generic contact form without those fields cannot answer which converters buy duplex board.
“Credit belongs in the same record”
A salesman who promises a delivery should see the buyer's payment position. Keeping credit notes in accounts alone leads to a sale that the finance team then stops.
“Sample reels need an owner”
Each sample sent should carry a date, a reel size, the buyer and a call to be made once it has run. Without an owner, the sample is a cost with no follow-up.
What we do
What we deliver for paper manufacturers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A buyer record designed for paper
Fields for grade, GSM range, typical order size, delivery town, machine type and decision-maker.
Result: A record that answers a sales question in one view.
A sample register
Every sample reel logged with the buyer, the date and the follow-up call outcome.
Result: A list of samples that have been run and those still waiting.
A quote and order tracker
Open quotes sorted by grade and age, so the sales head can see what is waiting for an answer.
Result: A list of quotes that need a call today.
Credit visibility for sales
A read-only credit note on the buyer record, maintained by accounts.
Result: Sales sees the payment position before promising dispatch.
Quiet-buyer alerts
A saved view of buyers whose last order is older than the gap you set for that account.
Result: A list of buyers worth a call before they drift.
Team training and rules
A short guide on what gets entered, by whom and when, written with your sales head.
Result: A habit the team keeps after setup.

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.
