Contract drafting services · Follow up systems

Chase the scope you sent, because silence is not a no.

A follow-up system for a contract drafter is the set of reminders and messages that move a sent scope toward a yes or a clear no. GullySales writes the messages and the rules for when each is sent.

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 contract drafting services

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

  • “The buyer goes quiet after the scope”

    A founder reads the scope, compares it with a cheaper option and gets pulled into other work. Nothing is rejected, nothing is signed. Without a planned follow-up, the quote simply ages.

  • “A follow-up should add something”

    A message that only asks whether the buyer has decided is easy to ignore. One that restates what the scope covers, answers the likely worry about price against a template or offers to review the draft's key clauses gives the buyer a reason to reply.

  • “Deadlines set the timing”

    A signing date on the record tells you which follow-ups are urgent. A review needed before an imminent signing deserves a call, while a long-horizon employment template can wait for a gentler reminder.

  • “A decline deserves a clean close”

    When a buyer says no, a polite close and a note that you are available later keeps the door open. Buyers who declined return when the next contract arrives.

What we do

What we deliver for contract drafting services.

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

  1. A follow-up sequence for sent scopes

    A set of messages for the stages after a scope goes out, each adding a point of value.

    Result: Each message has a purpose written beside it.

  2. Rules for who follows up and when

    A one-page rule saying who sends each message, tied to the signing date on the record.

    Result: Each stage has a named owner.

  3. Reply templates for common objections

    Short responses on price against a template, scope and confidentiality, written in your voice.

    Result: Each template is approved by you.

  4. A clean-close message

    A courteous note for a lost scope that records the reason and leaves a way back.

    Result: Every lost scope receives the note.

  5. A past-client reminder set

    Messages for earlier clients about renewals and new hires that need fresh agreements.

    Result: Each past client is listed against the agreements they hold.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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.

  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 · you are here

    Sales process design

    One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.

    Start here if every salesperson sells differently.

  3. 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.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Will follow-ups look pushy?
Not if each one adds information or an offer of help. Chasing without content is what annoys buyers.
When should we stop following up?
When the buyer says no, or when the signing date has passed and the contract was signed elsewhere. Record the reason and close the enquiry.
Can follow-up be automated?
Part of it, such as reminders for you to send. Messages to a worried founder are better written or at least checked by a person.
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.
