Drip irrigation providers · CRM

Keep every farm survey, quote, subsidy file and service visit in one record.

A CRM for a drip provider is a register of farmers and plots that tracks a survey from request to quote to installation to second-year service. GullySales sets up a simple phone-friendly record that the survey team will actually fill in, before any software is chosen.

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 drip irrigation providers

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

  • “The record belongs to the plot”

    A farmer may have more than one plot, each with its own crop, layout and installation date. A contact list that stores only a name loses this. The plot, with its crop and area, is the thing to record.

  • “Surveys happen away from a desk”

    The surveyor measures in a field with a phone in hand and no office. A record that needs a laptop is filled in days later, with details gone. It should work on a phone, in the field, in a few taps.

  • “Subsidy and loan stages need a status”

    A file can wait on a land record, a sanction letter or a department visit. If the stage is not noted, the sale appears to be stuck for no reason. A status and a next-check date on each file shows where it is held.

  • “Service is a sale in disguise”

    A farm installed last year with a blocked filter and no visit may not recommend you. The register should show when each farm is due a line check, so service is planned and not answered only when a complaint arrives.

What we do

What we deliver for drip irrigation providers.

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

  1. A plot-wise survey register

    A phone register with farmer, village, crop, area, water source, surveyor and next step.

    Result: Every survey has a next-call date against it.

  2. Quote status tracking

    A column for quote sent, farmer deciding, waiting on subsidy or loan, won and lost, with a reason for lost.

    Result: A view of quotes by stage.

  3. A subsidy and loan file tracker

    A record of which documents have arrived and which are pending for each farmer, with a note to confirm with the department or bank.

    Result: A list of files waiting, and on what.

  4. Installation and service history

    For each plot, the installation date, the layout notes and the dates of service visits.

    Result: A history the service team can read before a visit.

  5. A choice of tool, made last

    A comparison of a shared sheet and a CRM app in common use in India, set against your team's habits.

    Result: A written recommendation based on what your surveyors will use.

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 paid software?
Not at the start. A shared sheet that the team fills in daily tells you more than software nobody opens. Move to a CRM when the volume of surveys outgrows the sheet, and keep the same columns.
Who should enter the survey details?
The surveyor, from the field, the same day. Details recorded from memory are thin. If the surveyor cannot type easily, a voice note on WhatsApp that the office enters is a workable second best.
What do we do about old farmers' records on paper?
Enter the installed farms first, with crop, area and installation date. That gives you a service and added-acreage list. The older enquiries can be entered as time allows.
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.
