Education NGOs · CRM

Keep every sponsor, CSR contact and volunteer in one record with a next step.

A CRM for an education NGO is one shared list of supporters, each with a history, a programme and a date for the next contact. GullySales works on the fields, the stages and the habits that move your sponsor spreadsheet into a record the whole team can use.

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 education NGOs

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

  • “The sponsor list sits on one laptop”

    When the person who keeps the spreadsheet is away or leaves, the trust loses who gave to which child and when. A shared record outlives any one person.

  • “A renewal date nobody holds”

    A sponsor gave for one school year, and no one marked the month it ends. The only prompt is a bank entry, which arrives late or does not arrive.

  • “CSR conversations run for a long time”

    A company contact moves through a long run of reviews and approvals. Without a stage and a date against each, the conversation goes quiet and nobody notices.

  • “Volunteers and donors are the same people”

    An office team that painted a classroom may fund a lab later. Keeping volunteers in a separate list hides the people likelier to give.

What we do

What we deliver for education NGOs.

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

  1. One list for sponsors, partners and volunteers

    A single record with a type for each person, the programme they care about and their history with you.

    Result: Everyone who has helped is in one place.

  2. Stages for each type of supporter

    A clear path for sponsors, CSR partners and volunteers, from first enquiry to renewal.

    Result: Each person has a visible next step.

  3. Renewal and review dates against every record

    A date field for the end of a sponsorship or a CSR project phase, with a name responsible.

    Result: Nobody lapses without a prompt.

  4. A field for consent and communication choices

    A record of what each supporter agreed to, including how they wish to be contacted and whether their name may be shown.

    Result: Messages respect what was agreed.

  5. Handover that survives a staff change

    A short guide to the fields and stages, kept where new staff can find it.

    Result: A new coordinator picks up without asking around.

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

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

    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.

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 we need paid software?
Not at the start. A shared sheet with the right fields can do the job, and a paid tool can follow once your team keeps the record up to date. We help you choose when that point arrives.
What about donor privacy?
Hold only what you need, limit who can see it, and tell supporters how their details are used. Rules on personal data change, so check with your own adviser about what applies to your trust.
Can the CRM issue receipts?
That stays with your trust and its accountant. The CRM records who gave and when, so the person who issues receipts has a clean list to work from.
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.
