Corporate event organisers · CRM

Keep every company, every desk and every event month in one place.

A CRM for a corporate event organiser is the record of companies, the people at each who brief, pay and sign, and the quotes and events in progress. GullySales works on setting it up around how your briefs move, with tools in ordinary use in India such as Zoho CRM or HubSpot, or a well-kept sheet.

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 corporate event organisers

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

  • “One company has several contacts and each matters”

    The HR head briefs, the finance lead approves and the procurement officer holds the vendor file. A contact list with one name per company hides two of the three people who decide the quote.

  • “Quotes live in inboxes and are forgotten”

    A costed plan sent from one person's email is invisible to the rest of the team. Without a shared record, nobody knows which quotes are open, which are waiting for finance and which have gone cold.

  • “Event months repeat but are never written down”

    An annual day happens in the same month each year. If that month is not recorded against the client, the call is made when the briefing has already gone to someone else.

  • “A tool built for retail sales fits poorly”

    Event briefs carry a guest count, a date, a venue, a format and several decision-makers. A CRM with fields only for a deal and a value forces these into notes where nobody can find them.

What we do

What we deliver for corporate event organisers.

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

  1. A company, desk and role record

    Each company with the briefer, budget holder, procurement contact and signatory named, and the date each was last spoken to.

    Result: A record where no company has a missing role unnoticed.

  2. Event fields that match your briefs

    Event type, guest count, date, city, venue and format captured on every brief.

    Result: Every brief holds the same fields.

  3. A pipeline from brief to repeat

    Stages such as brief received, plan sent, costing reviewed, won, delivered and feedback taken.

    Result: Each open quote sits in a stage with an owner.

  4. An empanelment tracker

    Each company's form status, documents submitted, renewal date and procurement contact.

    Result: A view showing every empanelment and its status.

  5. An annual event calendar by client

    The month each client holds its usual events, so a call is prompted before the next briefing.

    Result: A view of clients whose event month is approaching.

  6. Training and a handover note

    A short guide for the sales and operations staff on what to record and when, so the record stays used.

    Result: A one-page guide on what to enter after every call.

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.

Do we need a paid CRM?
Not at the start. A shared sheet with the right columns will do until volume grows. Move to a tool when you cannot see open quotes at a glance.
How do we get the team to use it?
Make it the only place quotes are tracked. If the owner asks about a quote in a meeting, the answer comes from the record. Keep the fields few and relevant to events.
Can the CRM hold the event run sheet too?
Keep the run sheet and vendor lists in your operations tool and link them to the record. The CRM holds the client, the decision-makers and the commercial history.
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.
