Residential architects · CRM
Keep every plot, family and proposal in one place so no enquiry goes quiet.
A CRM for a residential architect is a record of each enquiry, the plot, the family members who decide and what was last said. GullySales sets up a simple one that fits a small practice and teaches the team to keep it current.
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.

Sales and marketing for residential architects, the overview.

For residential architects
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“A house takes a long time and memory fails”
Between first enquiry, site visit, fee note, silence and eventual signing, months pass. A partner remembers one family and loses another. A shared record holds the plot, the budget discussed and the next call due.
“Spreadsheets split across phones”
The enquiry sits in one partner's WhatsApp, the proposal in another's laptop. When that person is on site, nobody can answer the family. A single shared record means anyone in the practice can pick up the conversation.
“Past clients are your referral list”
A finished house leads to neighbours' questions two years later. A record of every completed project, with the family's contact and handover date, lets you stay in touch and see which past clients sent others.
What we do
What we deliver for residential architects.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
Simple pipeline for enquiry to signed project
Stages such as enquiry, site visit, fee note sent, family discussing and signed, with a named owner at each.
Result: Every enquiry sits in a stage with a person responsible.
Family and plot record
Fields for plot size, location, budget range, who decides and what each asked.
Result: You never ask the same question twice.
Source and referrer tagging
A field for who or what sent each enquiry, from engineer to Instagram.
Result: Source reports are drawn from the record.
Past-client list
Completed projects with handover date, review status and referrals received.
Result: You can see whom to contact and whom to thank.
Team training
A short walk-through for partners and coordinators on what to record after each call.
Result: The team uses the record on real enquiries.
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
Map the sales process
We record how a deal actually moves from enquiry to close in your business today.
- 2
Configure stages and fields
The CRM's pipeline and fields are built to match that process exactly, not a generic template.
- 3
Set up automations
Reminders, assignment rules and follow-up triggers are configured so routine steps happen without manual effort.
- 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.
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
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
