Flower shops · Sales management

Know which staff member is losing wedding enquiries to a slow follow-up.

Sales management for a flower shop means tracking every enquiry, same-day and wedding alike, to a named person and an outcome. This shows which staff member follows up well, and where enquiries are quietly being lost. GullySales builds that record around your own occasions and goes through it with you.

Scope, fee, reporting and term are agreed in writing after we have read your brief and spoken to you.

What sales management means

Sales management is the ongoing work of reviewing a sales team's pipeline, calls and targets, and stepping in on deals that are stuck. GullySales sets the review rhythm and the reports a sales manager needs to run this without relying on gut feel.

For flower shops

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

  • “A record separate from the order book”

    An order book shows what was sold, not what was asked for and lost, so a separate enquiry record is needed to see where wedding quotes are going cold.

  • “Staff accountability for follow-up, not just walk-in sales”

    A staff member good at serving a walk-in customer may be poor at following up a wedding quote three days later, and the record shows which is which.

  • “Seasonal staffing decisions backed by data”

    Knowing exactly how enquiry volume rises before Valentine's Day and the wedding season helps decide when to bring in extra hands, rather than guessing each year.

What we do

What we deliver for flower shops.

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

  1. Enquiry tracking record

    A record capturing every enquiry, same-day and wedding alike, separate from the order book, with an outcome noted.

    Result: A wedding quote that went cold sits in the record beside the bouquets you delivered.

  2. Staff follow-up accountability log

    A record noting which staff member handled each wedding quote and whether it was followed up.

    Result: You know exactly where a slow follow-up is costing a booking.

  3. Seasonal volume tracking

    A record of how enquiry volume rises before Valentine's Day and the wedding season each year.

    Result: Staffing decisions rest on a real pattern instead of a guess.

  4. Cold-enquiry reason tracking

    A note against each lost enquiry recording the reason, price, timing or a slow follow-up.

    Result: The most common cause of lost business becomes visible and fixable.

  5. Sales review report

    A report reviewing enquiry, conversion and follow-up numbers together.

    Result: You can see whether the shop is winning more than it is losing.

How the result is measured

  • Target achievement
  • Pipeline coverage
  • Stuck deals resolved

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

What the shop manager reviews

Read these six things in the enquiry book before the wedding season starts.

Wedding and event quotes not confirmed
List mandap, car and stage decoration quotes with no advance paid. Call each family with photos of a similar set-up and confirm the flower choice, since rates move with the season.
Same-day orders missed
Check the WhatsApp and call log for urgent bouquet or wreath orders that came in after cut-off or went unanswered. If many arrive late in the day, change who keeps the phone in the evening.
Online orders against the dispatch book
Compare orders from the website, Instagram and delivery apps with the dispatch book. A late or wrong delivery needs a call to the sender, since the person who paid is often not the one who received the flowers.
Hotel and office standing orders
Read the list of hotels, offices and venues that take regular arrangements. When one has not reordered, call the front office or admin contact to ask whether the vendor changed.
Festival pre-orders against flower stock
Before Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and Diwali, list pre-orders against the flowers booked with your mandi supplier. Stop taking orders you cannot make up.
Reasons a wedding quote was lost
Write why each wedding or event quote was lost: price, flowers out of season, a decorator who bundled the flowers, or a slow reply. Read them before setting next season's packages.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the sales management work runs

  1. 1

    Assess current management practice

    We look at what cadence, if any, currently exists and where it breaks down.

  2. 2

    Set the rhythm

    The touchpoints are agreed and scheduled in writing before the first review.

  3. 3

    Run or coach the cadence

    We either run the reviews and one-on-ones directly, or coach your manager to run them.

  4. 4

    Address performance directly

    Issues are raised as they appear, not left until a review period.

  5. 5

    Report to the owner

    A summary keeps ownership informed without needing to sit in every review.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Do we need special software for this?
A shared spreadsheet works for a single shop with modest enquiry volume; a simple CRM helps once you have more than one location or staff member handling enquiries.
How often should we review the numbers?
Monthly in general, and weekly in the run-up to Valentine's Day, Mother's Day and the wedding season when volume rises quickly.
Should the florists who make the arrangements join the review?
The head florist should join for wedding quotes and festival pre-orders. They know whether a design can be made with the flowers available and what it really costs in stems and labour. Keep the review short and hold it after the morning mandi run, when the shop is quiet.
How do I set a sales target for staff when festival days distort everything?
Set separate targets for ordinary days, festival days and wedding bookings, each based on the shop's own book from last year. A staff member's Valentine's Day sales say little about how they handle a wedding quote. Compare each person within the same kind of day.
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.
