Domain service providers · Follow up systems

Reach the owner before the name expires, and again after it is registered.

A follow-up system for a domain provider decides who contacts whom, on which channel, at each point from first search to renewal. GullySales writes the messages and the rules, and sets up the list your team works from.

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 domain service providers

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

  • “Expiry is the follow-up that matters most”

    A reminder email to a forgotten inbox does not reach the owner. A system sends the reminder by email, SMS and WhatsApp, and flags the name for a call when none is answered.

  • “A new registration is a moment”

    Right after buying, the owner is ready to ask about email and SSL. A message that arrives later, after a competitor's ad, finds a buyer who has already decided.

  • “Unfinished searches deserve a reply”

    A visitor who held a name and left may buy it elsewhere the next day. A single message with the name and the price breakdown gives them a reason to return.

  • “Transfer requests stall”

    An owner who starts a transfer and cannot find the code goes quiet. A follow-up with the exact steps and a contact person saves a sale that would otherwise be lost.

What we do

What we deliver for domain service providers.

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

  1. Renewal message set

    Drafted messages for email, SMS and WhatsApp before and after expiry, each naming the domain and the renewal price.

    Result: Each reminder states the name, the date and the price in one place.

  2. Post-registration sequence

    A short set of messages explaining business email, SSL and where to set them up with you.

    Result: Each new registration is followed by a message tied to that name.

  3. Abandoned search follow-up

    A message for visitors who held a name or started an account and did not pay.

    Result: Visitors who stopped at checkout hear from you once.

  4. Transfer assistance script

    A script for your team to call or message owners who started a transfer and stopped.

    Result: A stalled transfer has an owner and a script.

  5. Contact rules

    Written rules on how many attempts, on which channel and when to stop.

    Result: The team does not message the same owner repeatedly or let one lapse unnoticed.

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.

How it works

How the follow up systems 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

    Measure today's reply time

    From last month's enquiries, we measure how long each waited for a first reply and how many follow-ups it got.

  2. 2

    Agree targets and the sequence

    We set reply targets and the follow-up sequence with your team, based on its real hours and workload.

  3. 3

    Set up templates, tasks and ownership

    Templates, first-call questions, CRM tasks and named owners go live, with cover for leave and weekends.

  4. 4

    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.

  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.

How many reminders is too many?
That is your decision, and the rules should respect the owner's preference. We write a sequence that gives the owner several routes without repeating the same text, and we include a way to opt out.
Who sends the messages?
Your system or your team does. GullySales writes the text and the rules, and recommends a tool only if yours cannot send on the channels you need.
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.
