Home service franchise networks · CRM
Give every booking, franchisee and candidate one record with a named owner.
A CRM for a home service network holds every booking, every repeat customer and every franchise candidate with a named owner and a next step. GullySales works on setting up the fields, stages and routing rules in the tool you choose.
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 home service franchise networks
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A booking has two owners at once”
The call centre holds it until a franchisee accepts, and then the franchisee holds it. Without a field showing who owns it now, nobody knows whom to chase.
“Repeat customers sit in franchisees' phones”
A customer serviced last summer is saved in a technician's contacts, not the brand's. The reminder for next season never fires, and the customer calls whoever appears first in search.
“Candidates and customers share a sheet”
A franchise enquiry added to the booking sheet is lost among service calls. The two need separate pipelines with their own stages.
“Territory data is in several files”
The list of taken and open pincodes lives in different people's spreadsheets. A candidate asks about an area and the answer takes days.
What we do
What we deliver for home service franchise networks.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Booking pipeline
Stages from received to assigned, accepted, completed and reviewed, with the owner shown at each.
Result: Any booking shows who holds it now.
Candidate pipeline
Stages from enquiry to territory check, call, document stage and signing, with the pincode asked for on every record.
Result: The franchise team sees each candidate's territory first.
Customer and job history
A record of each customer's past jobs and the next due service, kept at brand level.
Result: Reminders can be sent from the brand's own data.
Territory master list
One list of every pincode with its status and franchisee, shared with sales and the call centre.
Result: The answer to an area question comes from one list.
Franchisee access rules
What each franchisee can see and edit, limited to their own territory.
Result: A franchisee sees their bookings and no one else's.
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.
Fields worth keeping
These are the fields a home service network needs on each record.
- Pincode and territory owner
- Filled by the call centre or form. It names the franchisee who should receive the booking.
- Booking status and time of acceptance
- Updated by the franchisee. It shows which bookings were taken, which lapsed and how long a resident waited.
- Job history at the address
- Entered by the technician after the job. It lets the next visit start from what was done before.
- Candidate stage and territory asked
- Entered by the franchise team. It keeps two candidates from being promised the same area.
- Consent to be contacted again
- Asked at booking and recorded, so a repeat reminder goes only to people who agreed.

Not for
It is not the right fit if.
- Franchisees will not enter data until the agreement says who owns the customer data, and a system built before then would stay empty.
- The call centre takes bookings in a notebook and has no stable fields, so a tool would copy the confusion.
- Customer and candidate sheets are one file, and loading them into a tool before they are separated would mix the two.
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
Map the sales process
We sit with the people who sell and write down how a deal moves from enquiry to payment, including where it stalls.
- 2
Agree stages, fields and owners
Each stage gets a name your team already uses and a proof that the deal has left it. We agree which fields are required at which stage, and who may change what.
- 3
Build on a copy
Pipeline, fields and views are built on a trial copy where the CRM offers one, or in a separate pipeline where the plan allows. Live work stays untouched.
- 4
Connect channels, then switch on automations
Channels are connected first. Each automation is then switched on separately, so a misfiring rule is easy to find.
- 5
Test with real deals
The people who will use the CRM run open deals through it. Gaps are fixed before the whole team switches over.
- 6
Switch over and trim
Once real use shows which fields stay empty and which stages nobody uses, those are cut and the handover record is updated.
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.
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
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
