Global capability centre and offshore development centre consultants · Follow up systems

Stay in the evaluation for as long as the board takes to decide.

A follow-up system for a capability centre consultant is the set of planned contacts that continue between meetings and after the study. GullySales works on who contacts whom, with what, and when the next touch is due.

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 global capability centre and offshore development centre consultants

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

  • “Silence is a normal part of the decision”

    A parent can go quiet because of a board cycle or a reorganisation. A consultant who treats the silence as a no loses evaluations that were still alive.

  • “Each stakeholder needs a different follow-up”

    Finance wants a cost view, technology wants a hiring view, legal wants a boundary note. One generic email to all of them satisfies none.

  • “The study end is not the engagement end”

    When the centre opens, the client moves on. A planned check-in during stabilisation, and at the next decision point, is where second centre work comes from.

  • “A follow-up must add something”

    A message that asks for an update is easy to ignore. A message with a short note on a relevant shift in the market gives the reader a reason to reply.

What we do

What we deliver for global capability centre and offshore development centre consultants.

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

  1. A follow-up plan for each stage

    What is sent after a first call, after a proposal, during a pause and after the study.

    Result: The team always knows the next step.

  2. A message library by stakeholder

    Short notes for finance, technology, legal and the India sponsor.

    Result: Follow-up speaks to each reader.

  3. A reminder routine in the CRM

    Every evaluation has a next action and an owner.

    Result: No parent is left unattended.

  4. A post-study check-in plan

    A set of contacts after the centre opens, aimed at stabilisation and the next decision.

    Result: Follow-on work comes from clients who already know you.

  5. A record of pauses and returns

    Why each evaluation paused and when it came back.

    Result: You learn how long decisions really take for your clients.

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.

Tell us what you need
How frequently should we follow up?
Set it by the stage and the stakeholder, not by a fixed rhythm. A programme head waiting for a board paper needs a different note from a counsel reviewing your scope.
Is it pushy to keep contacting a parent?
Not when each message adds something and the reader can step out easily. Pushy is a message that only asks for a decision.
Who owns the follow-up?
One named person on your side for each evaluation. Shared ownership is how promises are lost.
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.
