Civil contractors · CRM

Keep every enquiry, site visit and quotation in one place the whole office can read.

A CRM for a civil contractor is a single record of each enquiry, the site visit, the quotation and the result, replacing notes in phones and diaries. GullySales sets up a simple sheet or tool with your clerk and shows how to keep it current without us.

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 civil contractors

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

  • “Enquiries live in three supervisors' phones”

    When a call lands on a supervisor on site, the details stay in that phone. The office never sees the enquiry, the owner is not called back and nobody can say how many leads came in. A shared record fixes where each call is written.

  • “A quotation without a status is a guess”

    A rate sent to an owner a while ago may be accepted, lost or forgotten. Without a status beside it, the office cannot tell which to chase. A column showing sent, visited, negotiating, won or lost answers it.

  • “Bills belong in the same record as the work”

    A work order won is not the end. The bill passes through measurement, certification and payment. Keeping that stage beside the job shows which clients pay on time and which cost more in chasing than they earn.

  • “A heavy system will be abandoned by the second week”

    A contractor's office is one or two people. A tool with a screen for everything gets ignored. A sheet with a dozen columns that the clerk fills each evening will outlast a costly software purchase.

What we do

What we deliver for civil contractors.

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

  1. An enquiry and quotation sheet

    Columns for source, work type, locality, visit date, quotation sent, status and reason for loss, designed with your clerk.

    Result: Any enquiry can be found and its status read in a few seconds.

  2. A rule for who writes what

    A short note stating that every call is entered by the same person on the same day, whoever took it.

    Result: No call stays only in a supervisor's phone.

  3. A bill-stage column

    Fields showing measured, billed, certified and paid for each job, with the amount at each step.

    Result: A chase call can quote the stage and the amount.

  4. A repeat-client view

    A filter listing past clients with the work done and the month, for follow-up when new needs arise.

    Result: The office can pull every past client in a locality at once.

  5. A hand-over session

    A sitting with the clerk to enter live jobs together and fix the sheet before we step back.

    Result: The clerk keeps the record without needing us in the room.

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.

Tell us what you need
Do we need paid CRM software?
Not at the start. A well-built shared sheet suits a small office. Move to software only when the sheet becomes hard to use, and then pick one your clerk will actually open each day.
Who should own the CRM?
One named person in the office, the clerk or the owner's relative who handles accounts. A record owned by everyone is kept by no one.
Is client data safe in a shared sheet?
Keep access to the people who need it, use a strong sign-in and remove access when someone leaves. Check any tool's current terms on where data is stored before you move records into it.
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.
