Quality management consultants · CRM

Keep a record of every trigger so no audit-week enquiry is lost to memory.

A CRM for a quality management consultant is a simple record of each plant, the trigger behind its enquiry, who spoke to you and what comes next. GullySales works on a setup small enough to be kept up after a long day on a shop floor.

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 quality management consultants

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

  • “The trigger is the field that matters”

    A general contact record holds a name and a number. For this trade the useful field is what happened: a rejection, an audit finding, a tender clause. Without it, nobody remembers why the plant called, and the follow-up sounds generic.

  • “One enquiry has several people in it”

    The owner makes the call, the plant head describes the defect and the quality manager holds the records. A record that stores only one contact loses the others, and the follow-up goes to the person who is not deciding.

  • “Projects stall at the quotation, not at the first call”

    Enquiries are answered well and then wait for a proposal. A record that shows the date the quotation went out, and the next step agreed, shows you which plants are waiting on you and which on themselves.

  • “Past clients are your best source and the worst recorded”

    A plant you helped last year will meet a new audit this year. If the record shows the product, the defect and the last contact, a short note at the right time reaches a buyer who already trusts you.

What we do

What we deliver for quality management consultants.

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

  1. A record set up around the trigger

    Fields for the trigger, product, customer demand, people involved and the stage, kept as short as the work allows.

    Result: Each enquiry is stored the way you would explain it.

  2. Stages that match your engagements

    Stages from enquiry to site visit, proposal, project and review, with a plain rule for moving a plant between them.

    Result: You can see where each plant stands.

  3. Your existing contacts brought in

    Past clients, association contacts and supplier team introductions loaded into the record with the project each was linked to.

    Result: Nobody you worked with is missing.

  4. A rule for who is on each record

    Owner, plant head and quality manager noted separately, with the person who decides marked.

    Result: Follow-up goes to the decision maker.

  5. A reminder for past clients

    A note, set against each completed project, to check on the plant when its customer audit is likely to return.

    Result: Return work does not depend on memory.

  6. A view of sources and outcomes

    A short report of which sources and triggers became projects and which stalled.

    Result: You can read the record without building a spreadsheet.

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.

Which CRM tool should I use?
Use one you will open every day. A simple tool in ordinary use in India is enough, and a spreadsheet works to begin with. The fields matter more than the product.
How much should I record?
Record the trigger, the people, the proposal date and the next step. Anything beyond that is kept only if you read it later. A thin record that is used beats a full one that is not.
Is customer information safe in a CRM?
Plant details and part names can be confidential. Store only what you need, restrict who sees it, and follow your client contracts. Check the tool's current terms and take advice from your own adviser.
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.
