IT services and networking companies · Lead generation

Get called before the fit-out contractor picks the cabling team.

Lead generation for an IT and networking firm is about being present at three moments: the breakdown, the office move and the audit. GullySales sets up the survey routine that turns a call into a scoped quote, builds the contractor and facility manager list, and keeps a record of every quote until it is won or lost.

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 IT services and networking companies

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

  • “The office move is decided before anyone calls you”

    The interior contractor has already been asked who does the cabling, and the contractor names whoever they worked with last time.

  • “A breakdown call is a lead you almost lost”

    They rang you because nobody had a contract. That week, while the lost day is fresh, is when the AMC is signed.

  • “The site survey is the qualifier”

    Points, distances, rack space and the state of the existing wiring decide whether the job is worth quoting, and a phone estimate has cost most firms a job or two.

What we do

What we deliver for IT services and networking companies.

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

  1. A survey checklist and a booking rule

    One sheet covering points, cable routes, rack location, power, existing equipment and photographs, with a rule on how fast a survey is booked after the call.

    Result: Quotes are built on what is there, not on what was described.

  2. The AMC offer sent the week after an incident

    A short note recording what failed, what it cost the office in downtime and which contract level would have covered it, sent while the memory is fresh.

    Result: Emergency visits turn into yearly contracts.

  3. A contractor and facility manager list that is actually worked

    Interior fit-out firms, architects, building managers and co-working operators in your area, with a named owner and a call every quarter.

    Result: You hear about the office move at planning stage.

  4. Two follow-up dates fixed when a quote goes out

    Both dates entered the day the quote is sent, with the wording already written, because a quote nobody rejected is not a quote anybody accepted.

    Result: Quotes get answered instead of going quiet.

  5. Every call recorded, including the ones you could not take

    Caller, site, fault, who attended and what was quoted, kept in one place with the missed and after-hours calls written in too.

    Result: You can see how much work walked past the phone.

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

An IT services firm hears from clients in six ways, and each one needs a different line in the register.

Phone call during an outage
Write down the site, what failed, who rang and whether that office holds an AMC. Give the caller an engineer's name and a visit slot, and mention the support contract before you put the phone down.
Survey request from a website form
Record the number of users, floors, the make of the existing switch and router, and the date the new branch opens. Reply with a survey visit slot, not a price.
Brand or OEM partner referral
Note which brand sent the enquiry and which product line it is for. Reply to the buyer first, then tell the brand contact the next step so the lead is not claimed twice.
GeM or institution tender
Log the bid number, the closing date, the BOQ lines you can supply and who holds the compliance papers. Keep the documents in one folder before the closing date, not on it.
Office manager of an existing client
Requests for a new desk, a printer or a branch often arrive as a casual WhatsApp. Open an enquiry against that client's AMC, with its renewal date, the same day.
Architect, interior designer or facility manager
Record who sent the work and the fit-out stage. Cabling and server room points are decided early, so ask for the drawing before the false ceiling goes up.

Who it is for

This is written for these IT services and networking companies.

  • Managed IT service providers for small offices
  • Structured cabling and LAN and Wi-Fi installers
  • Network security and firewall specialists
  • Server, storage and backup solution providers
  • Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace partners
  • IT hardware system integrators
  • Data centre and server room fit-out companies
  • IT firms serving schools, hospitals and factories

Not for

It is not the right fit if.

  • Nobody owns the survey visit, so a new enquiry would wait in a message thread until the buyer rings another firm.
  • You cannot say which brands and site sizes you support, so enquiries would arrive that you then have to turn away.
  • You have no price range you are willing to quote on the phone, which leaves every enquirer asking for a visit first.

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
Most of our work comes by reference. Why change anything?
References dry up quietly when the people giving them change jobs. Start with your own base: every one-off client without a contract is a lead you have already met.
Should we take after-hours calls?
Decide it and say it. A published after-hours number with a real person wins contracts. A number that rings out at nine at night costs you the client you already had.
An existing client asks for a new laptop setup on WhatsApp. Is that a lead?
Yes. It is sales from a known account, so log it, but mark it as an existing client. Over time you can see how much work comes from your own base and how much from new offices, which tells you where to spend effort.
How do we tell a real project enquiry from someone just fishing for a router price?
A real project has four things: a site, a head count, a date and someone who signs the order. If the caller cannot give two of them, log it as a price query and offer a survey visit. Count it as qualified only when a site visit is booked.
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.
