Granite processors · CRM

Keep every fabricator, dealer and builder in one record, with what they asked for.

A CRM for a granite processor is a single record of every buyer, the colours they asked about, the quotes sent and the next call due. GullySales sets up a simple sheet or tool that suits the size of your office and teaches the team to fill it.

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 granite processors

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

  • “Memory is the current system, and it leaves with the person”

    The supervisor knows which fabricator wanted Absolute Black and the accountant knows who pays late. If either leaves or is away, the knowledge goes with them. A shared record puts it where the whole office can read it.

  • “Quotes are sent and then lost in chat history”

    A rate sent by WhatsApp scrolls out of sight within days. Without a record of what was quoted, for which lot and on which date, the next call starts from nothing and the buyer notices.

  • “The record must be quicker than memory”

    A tool that takes five minutes to fill after each call will be abandoned. The sheet must ask only for the buyer, the colour, the quantity, the quote and the next date. Anything extra can wait.

  • “Payment history belongs next to the enquiry”

    A buyer with a long overdue balance should not receive a new rate in the same friendly way as one who pays on time. Showing the balance beside the buyer lets the owner decide with the facts in view.

What we do

What we deliver for granite processors.

The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.

  1. Buyer record format

    One row per buyer with type, town, colours bought, last order, quote status and balance.

    Result: Search for one buyer and see everything the office knows.

  2. Enquiry log

    A log of each enquiry with source, colour, quantity, quote sent and outcome.

    Result: You can filter all enquiries for one colour.

  3. Quote tracking

    A column set that records the date, rate, lot and validity of each quote.

    Result: Open a buyer and see the quote that went out.

  4. Team entry routine

    A short routine and a guide for who enters what and when, with the supervisor and the office covered.

    Result: Each person knows which fields are theirs.

  5. Record clean-up

    A one-time tidy of existing contacts from phones, notebooks and old messages into the new record.

    Result: Your existing buyers are in one list with duplicates merged.

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.

Fields worth keeping

A granite record needs the colour and the lot next to the buyer.

Buyer type
Fabricator, dealer, builder, importer or monument workshop, set by whoever creates the record. It decides the reply sheet and the next call.
Colour, finish and form asked for
Entered from the first message. It tells the owner which lots to push and which buyers to call when a colour arrives.
Quote number, rate and date
Entered by the person who sends the quote. It ends the argument about which rate was offered when a buyer returns.
Lot or block number supplied
Entered by dispatch. If a buyer complains about shade, the record shows which lot they received.
Payment due and received
Entered by accounts. It sits beside the enquiry so the owner sees which buyers pay late before accepting the next order.

Who it is for

This is written for these granite processors.

  • Granite slab and tile processors working from quarried blocks
  • Polished granite exporters shipping by container
  • Cut-to-size units supplying kitchen countertop fabricators
  • Processors supplying builders with flooring and cladding for projects
  • Granite dealers who also run a small polishing line
  • Monument and memorial stone workshops that buy from processors
  • Processors serving tile dealers and showrooms in one state
  • Gang saw and cutting units selling rough-cut slabs to polishers

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Salesmen will not enter quotations and the owner will not insist, so a new tool would stay empty.
  • You handle a few buyers who call the owner directly, so a simple notebook kept by one person is enough for now.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

CRM for granite processors: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

List the records your team uses and show how an enquiry becomes an order today. Bring examples of duplicate entries, missing owners, and reports that require manual correction.

Make the scope clear

Agree the stages, required fields, access roles, and integrations before configuring the system. Separate software subscriptions from setup, data work, and training.

Check the work in use

Ask the people who will use the CRM to complete a real handover and find the next action without help. Check that the management report can be traced back to individual records.

Know when to change course

If the process is unclear, buying a more complex CRM adds more places for confusion. Start with the minimum fields and rules the team can use consistently.

These are discussion points, not a fixed package. GullySales confirms the deliverables, responsibilities, fee, and term in writing after reading your brief and speaking with you.

How it works

How the CRM work runs

The work itself, in order. How an engagement starts, from your brief to a written scope, is set out on our method page.

  1. 1

    Sales journey agreement

    Your sales lead explains how an enquiry becomes an order, using open deals as examples. We agree which steps belong in the CRM and identify decisions needing your approval.

  2. 2

    Configuration approval

    You approve stage definitions, required fields, ownership rules, and access. Unresolved choices are settled before configuration starts.

  3. 3

    Test environment decision

    We confirm whether your plan provides a trial copy or separate pipeline. Where neither is available, changes to the live system need an agreed approach before work proceeds.

  4. 4

    Connection and rule checks

    Enquiry connections are checked before automations are activated separately. Your nominated owner verifies where records arrive and which person receives each task.

  5. 5

    Sales team acceptance

    The people handling enquiries test open deals from entry through closure. Required corrections are resolved before you approve the switch.

  6. 6

    Switch and ownership handover

    The agreed configuration goes into use, and your CRM owner receives the final record. Any post-switch corrections included in the scope are documented before handover closes.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales management. A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

  1. Step 1

    Sales audit

    Find where deals are being lost and what to fix first.

    Start here if you cannot say where orders are lost.

  2. Step 2

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3 · you are here

    Sales management

    A target, a review routine and someone who owns the number.

    Start here if the team has targets and no routine.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Do I need to buy CRM software?
Not at the start. A well-built sheet that the whole office uses beats a tool nobody opens. If the number of buyers grows, move to an Indian or global CRM tool and bring the same fields across.
Who should enter the data?
Whoever speaks to the buyer enters the call, and the office checks it. Keeping entry to a few fields makes that practical for a supervisor who is also running the yard.
What should we do with old buyers who have gone quiet?
Mark them as lapsed in the record and call with the colours they bought before. A repeat buyer costs less to win back than a new one. Note the reason if they say, since a lost buyer may point to a fault in supply or rate.
What if we change agency or software later?
The data is yours. Keep the record in a format you can export, such as a spreadsheet or a standard export file. Ask for the export when you start and check that you can open it, so nothing is locked in.
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.
