Property management companies · Lead generation

Answer the owner asking what the flat would rent for, then answer again.

Lead generation for a property management company means the owner who is thinking of handing over a flat, a shop or a building and asks someone. GullySales sets up the sources, records every owner enquiry with the owner's situation, and keeps the follow-up going after the first rent estimate.

What lead generation means

Lead generation is the combined work of every channel that brings in a new enquiry, whether from search, adverts, referrals or a stall at an exhibition. GullySales runs these channels together and reports the number of enquiries each one produced, not the activity behind it.

For property management companies

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

  • “The first answer is a rent figure and then silence”

    An owner asks what the flat would fetch, gets a number on WhatsApp, and is not contacted again. The decision takes weeks, and the firm that rings back in week three is the one that is remembered.

  • “Brokers are the largest source and the least recorded”

    A broker mentions you to an owner on a site visit, and nothing is noted. Without a record of who sent whom, you cannot thank a broker or see which ones send real work.

  • “Some enquiries should be declined and the firm declines none”

    A single studio three hours out, a flat in dispute, a landlord who wants a price war. Each costs time. A written rule on what you take saves the day for the owners you want.

What we do

What we deliver for property management companies.

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

  1. Owner enquiry record with the situation written down

    A sheet or CRM entry holding the property, locality, whether the owner lives abroad, current tenant and the reason for enquiring.

    Result: Every owner enquiry has a home and a history.

  2. Rent estimate routine that ends in a call

    A short checklist for the estimate, a call booked with the owner and a second contact scheduled, so the figure is never the last message.

    Result: No estimate goes out without a follow-up.

  3. Broker referral record

    A list of brokers, builders and advisers with date, name of owner referred and outcome, so each source is visible.

    Result: You know which brokers send real work.

  4. An intake rule for properties you take and decline

    One page setting out the localities, property types and conditions you work with, with a polite message for the ones you decline.

    Result: Your team stops spending a day on a flat that was never a fit.

  5. Owner-to-owner referral ask

    A message to owners who have stayed through a renewal, asking whether they know another owner who needs a manager.

    Result: Satisfied owners have an easy way to pass your name on.

  6. Lead source report

    Enquiries and signed properties by source, set against the baseline recorded before work began.

    Result: You see where signed properties came from.

How the result is measured

  • Enquiries generated
  • Cost per enquiry
  • Enquiries by source

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Where enquiries come from

A property manager hears from owners, brokers and tenants, and each source needs the owner's situation written down.

Rent estimate request from the website
A form and a call. Ask the locality, property type and who lives there now, then call the owner before sending a figure.
Broker or builder referral
Note who introduced whom and the date. Tell the broker the outcome, and keep their future sale out of the conversation with the owner.
Owners' group or building WhatsApp group
A member asks who manages flats well. Answer once, helpfully and without a sales pitch, and note the name if the owner reaches out.
NRI owner searching from abroad
The first message may arrive at night in India. Reply with who you are, what you handle and when a call is possible, in writing, in their time zone.
Inherited or newly bought property
A family with a flat and no plan. They need a call that explains the choices, not a brochure, and a note of the date when you should check in.
Tenant enquiry on a listing
A tenant who asks about a flat is a vacancy to fill, not an owner. Keep it in the tenant record, and note if the tenant mentions another owner who might need a manager.

Who it is for

This is written for these property management companies.

  • Residential flat and apartment managers for individual owners
  • Managers of rented independent houses and villas
  • Apartment complex and gated community managers working with the committee or the RWA
  • Commercial shop, office and warehouse property managers
  • Facility managers handling common areas, housekeeping and security
  • Rental managers working for NRI and out-of-city owners
  • Builders running a management arm for their own handed-over projects
  • PG, co-living and serviced apartment operators
  • Brokerages adding a management service
  • New firms still building their first set of managed properties

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • You cannot yet send an owner a rent estimate, so the first thing an owner asks for would not be available to give.
  • Every owner you want already comes through two or three brokers, and you have not tried asking those brokers for more.
  • No one is named to call an owner back, so a form would collect names that turn cold.

How it works

How the lead generation 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

    Understand your capacity

    We ask how many enquiries your team can answer well, who answers after hours, and what a good enquiry looks like. Without this, the system fills a funnel nobody is watching.

  2. 2

    Audit current sources

    We read your call log, WhatsApp chats, enquiry sheet and platform dashboards. The baseline is recorded: enquiries by source, reply time, conversion and cost per order.

  3. 3

    Strategise the channel mix

    Search and maps are chosen for people ready to buy, ads for people who are not yet looking, and content and referrals for trust.

  4. 4

    Implement capture and follow-up

    Pages, forms, tags, the lead record and the first-reply message are built and tested end to end. We submit test enquiries ourselves before any media money is spent.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    Enquiries are traced to source and judged by what became orders, not by volume alone. Channels that fill the sheet with poor enquiries are cut back. How often you are reported to is agreed in writing.

Where this fits

Three pieces of sales work, in this order.

This work sits inside sales process design, at stage 1, prospecting and lead generation. 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 do we stop giving rent estimates to people who never call back?
Keep the estimate short and tie it to a call. Ask for the locality, property type and phone number first, and send the figure on the call, not before. Owners who will not take a call were not going to sign.
Should we take a single flat far outside our area?
Decide before the enquiry arrives. Write the localities you serve and the travel you accept, and refer the rest to a firm that works there. A property you cannot visit is a complaint waiting.
A tenant says their landlord may sell. Is that a lead?
It is a warning, not an enquiry. Note it, and do not approach the owner through the tenant. If the owner calls, the record will show you saw it coming and can plan the vacancy.
How do we record an owner who came from one of our own owners?
Write the referring owner's name on the new enquiry on the first call. When the new owner signs, say thank you to the referrer in your own words. Check with your adviser before offering any payment.
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.
