Waterproofing contractors · Follow up systems
Ask what the committee decided before another applicator does.
A follow-up system for a waterproofing contractor is the set of reminders and messages that move a survey to a quotation and a quotation to a decision. GullySales works on the sequence, the wording and the log that shows who owes whom a reply.
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 waterproofing contractors
Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.
“The decision happens in a meeting you do not attend”
A committee decides on a Sunday, and the secretary tells you nothing unless asked, because nothing about the outcome seems urgent to them. A message after the meeting, asking only whether a decision was taken and whether anything is unclear, keeps the job from drifting.
“A builder's silence is not a refusal”
Purchase teams hold quotations until a tender closes, and a quotation sitting with them is not a rejection. Chasing every day irritates them, and silence for months loses the work. A follow-up tied to their tender stage is calm, and records what they said.
“A survey visit without a written scope goes cold”
The owner met the estimator, heard a plan and then received a bare rate. With nothing to compare against other firms' scopes, the owner has no reason to call you back. The scope must follow the visit, not arrive long after it.
“Monsoon enquiries bunch up”
When rain arrives, leak calls arrive together, and the earliest are answered while later ones wait without a word from your firm, until the owner calls someone else. A follow-up system with a visible list of unanswered messages stops late enquiries from being forgotten.
What we do
What we deliver for waterproofing contractors.
Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.
A follow-up ladder for each stage
Reminders after photographs, after the survey, after the quotation and after the decision, each with a suggested message.
Result: The estimator knows what to send at each stage.
Message templates for WhatsApp
Short, polite messages for asking about a decision, offering to answer questions, or confirming a visit.
Result: Replies go out in a consistent, courteous voice.
A quotation tracker
Open quotations listed by client with the date sent, the next meeting and the last contact.
Result: You can see at a glance which quotations are waiting.
A lost-job note
When a job is lost, a line recording the reason the client gave, whether price, scope, guarantee or timing.
Result: Lost jobs add to what you know about the market.
A post-job check-in
A message sent after the work order is closed, asking whether the surface is dry and whether the owner is satisfied.
Result: Every completed job is followed by a check-in recorded in the log.
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.

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.
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 · you are here
Sales process design
One written way to sell, from first enquiry to repeat order.
Start here if every salesperson sells differently.
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.
