Shrimp farms · CRM

Keep every plant, agent and payment date in one place the owner can open on harvest day.

A CRM for a shrimp farm is a single record of each buyer, with the rates they quoted, the lots they took, the payment days and the notes from every call. GullySales sets it up in a tool the farm will actually open, and builds the habit of filling it in.

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 shrimp farms

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

  • “Rates live in memory and in old chats”

    The count-wise rate a plant paid two crops ago is somewhere in WhatsApp. On harvest day nobody scrolls back. A record that holds each quote by count and date puts the comparison in front of the owner before the call.

  • “Payment history decides who to call first”

    A plant that pays late costs interest on feed loans. When the days from harvest to payment sit beside each buyer, the owner can see who is worth the call, instead of recalling it from a bad experience.

  • “A manager or relative may take the calls”

    Calls reach the owner, the pond manager or a relative. Without one shared record, each hears different quotes. A shared log keeps the story of each buyer the same whoever answers.

  • “The record must be light enough to use”

    A tool with a long list of fields is abandoned by the second crop. The useful record is a few columns: buyer, contact, count, rate, weight, payment date, notes. Anything else is added only when the farm asks.

What we do

What we deliver for shrimp farms.

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

  1. A buyer sheet or simple CRM

    Plants, agents, traders and local buyers with contacts and a note on how each prefers to be reached.

    Result: One file where every buyer appears once.

  2. A quote log by harvest

    The count, rate, quantity and weight settlement for each buyer in each crop.

    Result: A sheet that compares this harvest's quotes with the last.

  3. A payment tracker

    Invoice, expected date, received date and the days between.

    Result: A running list of what each buyer owes and since when.

  4. A call note habit

    A short format for noting every call and who made it.

    Result: Every call to a buyer leaves a dated line.

  5. A hand-over for staff and family

    A one-page guide for whoever else answers the phone.

    Result: A page the whole team has read and agreed to follow.

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 I need paid software?
Not at the start. A shared sheet that your team opens is better than a paid tool they ignore. We choose with you, and move to a tool only when the sheet is outgrown.
Who keeps it updated?
Someone on the farm has to be named for it. We set up the format and train the person, and we check it is being used. It cannot update itself.
Is buyer data safe in it?
Choose where it sits and who can open it. We recommend keeping buyer names and rates to people who need them, and we explain the tool's own sharing settings.
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.
