Pump manufacturers · CRM
Keep every duty-point enquiry, quotation and dealer visit in one record.
A CRM for a pump manufacturer is the single record of enquiries, quotations, dealers and installed pumps, so nothing depends on one engineer's memory or phone. GullySales works on setting up the fields, the stages and the habits that make the record true.
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 pump manufacturers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The duty point lives in a chat, not in a record”
Flow, head, fluid and site arrive on WhatsApp and in email. When the engineer who received them is on leave, the next person starts from nothing and asks the buyer again.
“Quotations go out and are not chased”
A priced offer is sent and nobody is assigned to ask what happened. Without a record of what was quoted, to whom and when, silent quotes cannot be separated from lost ones.
“Dealer performance is judged by feeling”
Which dealers stock your range, which have gone quiet and which orders came through whom is known only to the regional manager. When that person moves, the knowledge goes too.
“The installed base is not recorded at all”
A pump supplied years ago is a future order for spares, seals or a replacement. If the dispatch record does not link to a named plant contact, the order goes to whoever calls first.
What we do
What we deliver for pump manufacturers.
The work available for this need. We agree the deliverables and responsibilities for your engagement in writing.
Fields built around pump enquiries
A record that holds fluid, flow, head, material, standard, site and contact, so a quotation can be prepared from it.
Result: A new engineer can quote from the record without calling the buyer.
Stages that match your sales route
Separate stages for dealer orders, tenders and plant enquiries, each with its own steps and its own owner.
Result: Each enquiry sits at a stage that someone is responsible for.
A dealer register
Each dealer with district, ranges stocked, last visit, last order and open concerns.
Result: The sales head can list dealers who have not ordered since the last season.
An installed-base list
Plants and models supplied, linked from dispatch records to a contact and a service history.
Result: A call for spares can start from the pump the plant owns.
Team habits and a short guide
A one-page guide on what to record, when and by whom, with a check on whether the record is being kept.
Result: Open quotations carry a date, an owner and a next step.
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
The enquiry and quotation fields that matter to a pump maker.
- Flow, head, fluid and temperature
- The sales engineer fills these from the enquiry. They let anyone pick up the quotation if the engineer is away, and they build a record of what buyers actually need.
- Pump family and model quoted
- Filled when the quotation is sent. It shows which families turn into orders and which are quoted but never bought.
- Buyer route: dealer, consultant, EPC, plant
- Filled at the first contact. The route decides the follow-up and tells you where your orders actually come from.
- Quotation date and validity
- Filled by the person sending it. It prompts a call before the quote lapses, rather than after the buyer has bought elsewhere.
- Competing make, if known
- Filled when the buyer mentions it. Over time it shows which makes you lose to, in which families and on what ground.
- Installed pump and its service dates
- Filled after supply. A seal or bearing change due later gives you a reason to call, and the record outlasts any one salesperson.
Who it is for

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- The sales team keeps duty points in personal notebooks and will not enter them in any shared place.
- You handle a few enquiries each month, and a sheet already tracks them without gaps.
- You want the CRM to run production planning, which is a different system.
Before you decide
Agree the work. Know how to judge it.
CRM for pump manufacturers: 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
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
Configuration approval
You approve stage definitions, required fields, ownership rules, and access. Unresolved choices are settled before configuration starts.
- 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
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
Sales team acceptance
The people handling enquiries test open deals from entry through closure. Required corrections are resolved before you approve the switch.
- 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.
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.
Step 2
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
