Inverter manufacturers · Follow up systems

Call back the installer who asked for a datasheet, before another brand does.

A follow-up system for an inverter maker is the set of reminders, owners and messages that carry an installer, dealer or project buyer from first enquiry to the next order. GullySales writes the steps, assigns them to people and checks that nothing falls between a visit and a quote.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

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 inverter manufacturers

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

  • “The datasheet goes out and silence follows”

    An installer asks for a datasheet, receives it, and hears nothing more. A call to ask whether the model suits the job they have in mind is the follow-up that starts the conversation.

  • “Dealer onboarding stalls after the first order”

    A new dealer places a stocking order and then waits to see if the brand is serious. A visit, a call after the first sale and a check on whether stock is moving tell them it is.

  • “Project quotes need a nudge with a reason”

    An EPC firm that received a quote needs a follow-up that adds something: a revised datasheet, a reference site or an answer to a query. A call that only asks if they decided adds nothing.

  • “Service follow-up is also sales follow-up”

    A dealer whose replacement was handled well is more likely to push your brand. A call after a complaint is closed shows that the brand notices, and it opens the next order.

What we do

What we deliver for inverter manufacturers.

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

  1. Follow-up steps by enquiry type

    Written steps for datasheet requests, dealer enquiries, project quotes and service complaints, each with an owner.

    Result: Every enquiry has a next action and a person.

  2. Reminder rules in the CRM

    Prompts that appear against a record when a promised call, visit or document is due.

    Result: Promises made to buyers get kept.

  3. Message drafts for the team

    Short call and message scripts that the team adapts, covering the common situations.

    Result: Follow-ups are polite, specific and consistent.

  4. Stalled-account review

    A regular look at accounts that have gone quiet, with a decision to call, visit or close.

    Result: Quiet accounts are decided on, not forgotten.

  5. Post-service call

    A call after each replacement or repair is closed, asking the dealer if the matter is settled.

    Result: The dealer's last memory of a failure is the fix.

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.

What to capture or send

Log these after each datasheet or quote, and send something useful with each call.

The datasheet goes out and silence follows. Each follow-up should answer a question the buyer has not yet asked.

Datasheet or quote sent
Record the model and the date with the name of the person who got it. A follow-up that names the model reads as attention, not a chase.
Question the buyer asked
Sizing, battery fit, price or warranty. Note it, and answer in the next message with a document or a photograph from a site.
Dealer's first order
After a new dealer stocks, note what sold and ask what the customers asked. Onboarding stalls when nobody calls after the first lot.
Project decision date
For an EPC quote, ask when the bid is decided. Set your next contact before that date, with a compatibility note or certificate they may need.
Service call outcome
After a repair, record the fault and the fix, then call the customer and dealer. A good service call is also the best reason to contact them about the next order.

Who it is for

This is written for these inverter manufacturers.

  • Home backup and sine wave inverter makers
  • Solar PCU and hybrid inverter makers
  • Grid-tied string inverter makers
  • Micro-inverter makers
  • Inverter makers selling battery and inverter combinations
  • Industrial and three-phase inverter makers
  • Drive and power converter makers for motors and pumps
  • Solar pump inverter makers

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Nobody is assigned to make the calls after a datasheet goes out, so a plan would become a list nobody reads.
  • You send datasheets by the hundred at exhibitions with no names recorded, so there is no person to follow up.
  • Sales and service blame each other for dealer complaints, and a joint follow-up would start an argument.

Before you decide

Agree the work. Know how to judge it.

Follow-up systems for inverter manufacturers: use these checks to prepare, choose the scope, and review what changes.

Bring the right evidence

Trace recent enquiries from arrival to the last recorded action. Include a won enquiry, an unsuitable one, and one that went quiet, with personal details removed for the initial discussion.

Make the scope clear

Agree who accepts each enquiry, what makes it qualified, and how ownership changes. Include a rule for missed replies and a clear reason for closing an enquiry.

Check the work in use

Pick an enquiry at random and ask the team to find its owner, latest conversation, and next action. Check that the record agrees with what actually happened.

Know when to change course

If no one has capacity to respond, assign that responsibility before buying more leads. Automation can support the owner, but it cannot replace an unresolved handover.

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 follow up systems 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

    Record access and baseline agreement

    You provide recent enquiry records and nominate the person responsible for sales. We compare arrival times with replies and agree which records are reliable enough for the baseline.

  2. 2

    Response and closure decisions

    Your sales lead approves response targets and follow-up gaps against available capacity. We also agree when to close an enquiry, pause contact, or refer a question to someone else.

  3. 3

    Message and question approval

    Your team reviews the reply library and first-call questions before use. Any technical answer or commercial promise needs approval from the person authorised to give it.

  4. 4

    Task testing and team handover

    We set up the agreed records and reminders, then test an incoming enquiry through to its next action. Your team checks ownership, including what happens when the assigned person is absent.

  5. 5

    Results review and routine changes

    We compare results with the baseline and identify missed steps. Changes to targets or messages are agreed with your sales lead; reporting frequency is agreed in writing.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 2, qualification. The audit comes before it, and sales management keeps it running.

  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 · you are here

    Sales process design

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

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. Step 3

    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.

Who owns the follow-up, sales or service?
Sales owns the buyer relationship and service owns the repair. We write who calls whom after each event, so the dealer hears from one voice at a time instead of two.
How often should we contact an installer who has not ordered?
Contact is frequent enough to be remembered and light enough not to irritate. We set the rhythm with your sales head by installer type, and each contact carries something useful such as a new datasheet or an update on stock.
What if the team forgets to log the call?
Then the record and the reminders fail. We keep the logging step to a few seconds on mobile and ask the sales head to review a few accounts regularly, so the habit is noticed.
Who owns the follow-up, sales or service?
Sales owns the commercial follow-up, while service owns the fault. Both write to the same record, so the dealer hears one story. After a repair, service closes the ticket and sales makes the next call, with the fault history in front of them.
What if the team forgets to log the call?
Make the log the way a call is closed, with one field and a drop-down. Review accounts where a quote has no note. If logging stays optional, the record will lag what the team knows, and the owner cannot see it.
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.
