Sand and aggregate suppliers · Follow up systems
Call the builder back before the next slab is given to a rival.
A follow-up system for a sand and aggregate supplier is the set of calls and messages sent after an enquiry, a delivery and an unpaid balance. GullySales works on who follows up, when the prompt appears and what the message says.
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 sand and aggregate suppliers
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A quote that is not chased goes to the rival”
A builder who asks for a rate and hears nothing back moves to the next number on the page. A same-day check of whether the quote was received is the whole difference between suppliers.
“The delivery is the moment to ask about the next one”
A site supervisor standing beside an unloaded tipper knows the loads still needed. A driver or clerk who asks about the next load at that point learns the schedule that no CRM can guess.
“Payment reminders need a tone”
A builder who owes for three loads is also a source of future orders. A reminder that states the amount, the loads and a date, politely, gets paid without ending the relationship.
“Quiet regulars are the ones about to leave”
A builder who ordered every fortnight and has not ordered for a month has either stopped building or moved. A call to ask which is worth more than any campaign.
What we do
What we deliver for sand and aggregate suppliers.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A follow-up rule for each stage
What happens after an enquiry, a quote, a delivery and an overdue balance, written as a one-page sheet.
Result: Every stage has a named person and a next step.
Message wording in the office language
Short messages for quote follow-up, delivery check and payment reminder, in the language your buyers use.
Result: Staff send the same polite wording.
A morning list for the clerk
Open quotes, today's deliveries to check and balances due, drawn from the register.
Result: The clerk starts the morning with a list.
A quiet-buyer alert
A flag on regulars who have not ordered for longer than their pattern.
Result: The owner sees who to ring.
A log of outcomes
Each follow-up marked as ordered, declined or no answer, with a reason.
Result: You can see which follow-up won orders.
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.

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
Measure today's reply time
From last month's enquiries, we measure how long each waited for a first reply and how many follow-ups it got.
- 2
Agree targets and the sequence
We set reply targets and the follow-up sequence with your team, based on its real hours and workload.
- 3
Set up templates, tasks and ownership
Templates, first-call questions, CRM tasks and named owners go live, with cover for leave and weekends.
- 4
Track and adjust every month
Reply time and follow-up completion are reported against the baseline, and the routine is changed where it is not kept.
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.
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 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
