Acupuncture centres · Follow up systems

Call the patient who missed a session before the course quietly ends.

A follow-up system for an acupuncture centre is the set of reminders, calls and messages that carries a patient from enquiry to the last session of a course. GullySales writes the wording, sets the triggers and gives the front desk a plan to follow.

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 acupuncture centres

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

  • “The enquiry that never gets a second message”

    A person asks about a frozen shoulder, hears a price and says they will think about it. Without a polite note a day or so later that answers the likely worry, the thought never returns. The follow-up is a courtesy and also the point where bookings are won.

  • “A missed session needs a different call from a missed enquiry”

    The patient who skipped a visit may be unwell, busy or discouraged. A call that opens with concern and an offer to find a better slot lands differently from a reminder that sounds like a demand. The front desk needs the words ready.

  • “Patients stop at the first sign of relief”

    Someone who feels better after three visits may assume the course is done, and the practitioner's plan is left half-finished. A check-in from the practitioner's side about the plan, not a sales push, brings back the conversation about what is still needed.

  • “Reminders protect the practitioner's diary”

    An empty slot is income that cannot be recovered. A confirmation message and a reminder before each visit cut the number of patients who forget, and a polite way to rebook means a cancellation need not become a lost patient.

What we do

What we deliver for acupuncture centres.

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

  1. A reply template for every new enquiry

    A first response that answers the likely worry and offers an assessment slot, sent the same way every time.

    Result: Every enquiry gets a reply in the same helpful form.

  2. Reminder wording for each visit

    A confirmation and a reminder message for the booked session, written to be clear and courteous.

    Result: Patients know the time and place of each visit.

  3. A call script for a missed session

    A short, kind script for the desk, with a way to offer a new slot and a way to leave the door open.

    Result: The desk calls without improvising each time.

  4. A check-in message for mid-course patients

    A note from the practitioner's side asking how the plan is going and inviting the next booking.

    Result: Mid-course patients hear from you before they drift.

  5. A lapsed patient list

    A view of patients who have not returned, with a gentle note about whether they would like to resume.

    Result: You can reach people who stopped without chasing them.

  6. A rule for when to stop

    A written rule for how many attempts to make before leaving a patient alone.

    Result: No patient is contacted past the point of welcome.

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

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 follow up systems work runs

  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.

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.

Will follow-up feel pushy to patients?
Not if it is written as care. A message that asks how the patient is and offers a slot reads as service. GullySales writes the wording in that spirit and sets a limit on attempts.
Can we message patients about their treatment results?
Keep messages to appointments, plans and practical matters. Health advertising rules differ by profession and state, so check with your own council or adviser before sending anything that speaks of outcomes.
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.
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.
