Arbitration and mediation firms · Follow up systems
Reply to counsel with the next step, then keep a date to ask again.
A follow-up system for an arbitration or mediation firm is the routine that answers an enquiry, sends the papers list and reminds the right person to come back. GullySales works on the templates, owners and reminder dates so no enquiry waits unanswered.
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 arbitration and mediation firms
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“An enquiry stalls on a missing paper”
A party writes, gets told to send the contract and the notice, and never does. Without a reminder, the matter dies quietly. A dated nudge, with the list of papers repeated, brings back the ones that were only delayed.
“Counsel want a prompt, exact reply”
A lawyer asking whether you take a matter expects a clear yes, no or what is needed. A slow or vague answer sends them to another forum. A drafted reply for each common question lets staff answer the same day.
“A mediation invitation needs a gentle second note”
The other side has to agree to attend. One note to a counterparty is rarely enough, and a pushy one backfires. A short, neutral second message that restates what mediation asks of each side keeps the door open.
“After a close, the relationship ends”
When a matter finishes, counsel who referred it hear nothing. A thank-you that reveals no detail, and a note about your next workshop, keeps the relationship alive without breaching confidentiality.
What we do
What we deliver for arbitration and mediation firms.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Reply templates for common enquiries
Drafted answers for scope, papers, appointment and costs questions, each in plain words.
Result: Staff can answer the common questions from one folder.
Papers checklist with reminder
The list of items a party must send, with a reminder note that repeats the missing ones.
Result: A party can see exactly which paper is outstanding.
Owner and date on every enquiry
A rule that each open enquiry has a named person and a next date.
Result: The sheet shows no open enquiry without an owner.
Counterparty invitation sequence
A short sequence of neutral notes inviting the other side to mediation.
Result: Each note states what attendance asks of the party.
Referrer thank-you routine
A note to counsel after a matter closes, free of any matter detail.
Result: Every referrer is thanked once the matter ends.
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.

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.
