The quote and the conversation of someone who says "I will talk it over at home" wait on the same record.

A showroom customer rarely decides on the day; they arrange a measurement, talk it over at home, and look at other stores. ** 01. ## What is customer tracking in a showroom? ** Short answer Customer tracking in a showroom means the conversation that starts in the store carries on in the record after the visitor walks out. Example scenario: Picture a showroom in Ankara selling kitchen and bathroom furniture. On Saturday afternoon the store is full. A couple comes in for kitchen cabinets, looks at door colours, asks for a worktop sample, and talks about booking a measurement visit. The sales consultant is looking after another customer at the same time. The couple takes a business card and leaves. By Monday, all the consultant remembers is the couple who wanted white doors. If the phone number was written in a notebook, that is lucky; if not, the customer only comes back if they call. ** 02. ## How does a walk-in become a customer card? ** Short answer A walk-in becomes a card that same day through a few fields the consultant enters on the phone: name, contact details, product of interest, and the next step. The obstacle to opening a record in a showroom is time. The consultant does not want to leave the customer, walk to a desk, and fill in a form on a computer. A record gets opened only if it can be opened beside the customer, on the phone, quickly. The second obstacle is habit. The consultant saves the customer's number on their own phone because it is quick and it feels like their customer. Yet as long as the number stays in the consultant's contacts, the customer belongs to the consultant, not to the store. In the Corex360 iOS and Android app the customer card is with you; notes and photos are entered there and written on the card. The photo of the door colour they liked or the worktop sample sits on the customer's card. Whoever calls the couple on Monday reads on the card what was said on Saturday. Opening the product of interest as an opportunity is where tracking begins. Product, quantity, and expected date sit on the card; at month end, the answer to how many people came in for kitchens is on the record, not in a spreadsheet. ** 03. ## Where does the customer write from after the visit? ** Short answer After the visit a showroom customer usually writes on WhatsApp or Instagram; the message should land in the store's shared inbox and on the same customer card. After the visit, the conversation continues on the phone, not in the store. The customer asks about a model they saw on Instagram, sends a photo of their kitchen on WhatsApp, and asks for invoice details by email. If these messages reach the consultant's personal phone, the customer goes unanswered while the consultant is on leave. After a showroom visit, customers often write on WhatsApp or Instagram. Corex360's [Messaging window](https://www.corex360.com/en/modules/messaging) gathers those two channels and web chat in one inbox, and messages, calls, and emails link to the same person. The consultant reads the incoming message on that visitor's card, right next to the note written on Saturday. How the business number links to the customer record is covered separately in the [WhatsApp CRM article](https://www.corex360.com/en/blog/whatsapp-crm). ** 04. ## Should the quote be prepared in the showroom or after measuring? ** Short answer For made-to-measure products the firm quote comes after the measurement visit, but the indicative price and product choice should go on the card on the day of the visit. For made-to-measure products such as kitchens, bathrooms, doors, and windows, the firm price comes after the measurement visit. The customer, though, wants to leave the store with a figure. The consultant writes an indicative price on paper; the paper stays with the customer, not with the store. If the firm quote after measurement differs from the indicative price, the customer shows the paper and an argument begins. If the card records which sizes and materials the indicative price assumed, the difference is easy to explain; if not, trust takes a knock. That is why the indicative price is a record too, and it belongs on the customer's card with its assumptions. In Corex360 the quote sits in the Quotes tab of the customer card. ** 05. ## How do you follow up a customer who puts off the decision? ** Short answer A customer who delays the decision is not forgotten when quote follow-up is tied to a rule; the unanswered quote rises to the top of the consultant's list. In showroom sales a customer seldom says no; they go quiet. They take the quote, say they will think about it, and never write again. The consultant does not want to seem pushy, so the follow-up slides to next week and then out of mind. Yet the silence usually has a reason: the customer is waiting for a price from another store, waiting for a loan approval, or unsure about the measurements. A short call at the right moment brings that reason out. The record should decide when the call is made. In Corex360 a quote given on Saturday is not left without an owner on Monday morning: if no reply comes, [X AI](https://www.corex360.com/en/x-ai) follows the quote up and puts the follow-up task with the consultant. The last word is yours; any message to the customer goes out with your approval, and the conversation stays on the same card. Even if the consultant leaves, the rule and the conversation stay on the card, and whoever takes over continues from there. ** 06. ## How are measurement, production, and delivery followed after the sale? ** Short answer After the sale closes, when measurement, order, production, and fitting dates are followed on the same customer card, the customer does not have to call the store to find out where things stand. In showroom sales the signature is not the end. For a kitchen order a deposit is taken, a measurement visit fixes the exact sizes, production starts, and a fitting day is set. Throughout, the customer calls the store: when will the cabinets arrive, which day will the worktop go in. If whoever answers does not know, they promise to call back, and often nobody does. In Corex360 the quote and the contract sit on the same customer card, and the steps from measurement to fitting sit on the project record with owners and dates. When the measurement step closes, the production team sees its task, the fitting date is on the calendar, and the same progress shows on the customer card. When the customer calls, whoever answers reads the fitting day from the card. ** 07. ## Where does the showroom manager see the day? ** Short answer The showroom manager sees the day in the morning report without asking the consultants: new opportunities, quotes sent, and those left unanswered. What a store manager knows about the weekend is usually what they saw: the store was busy, lots of people asked questions. They do not know who was called back or which quote went unanswered. In businesses with more than one store this blind spot grows. Each store has its own notebook and its own WhatsApp group, and head office learns which product was asked about in which store only at month end, when the sales figures arrive. Once records are kept, the manager's question changes. It is no longer how many people came in on Saturday but which of them agreed a next step, who is waiting for a quote, and who has gone quiet. The weekly meeting runs on the cards instead of general impressions, and the consultants see what is outstanding on the same list. In Corex360 this list arrives in the morning report. The manager asks the consultants for no report; the list gathered from the cards comes to them. We showed this flow by telling the day of a [CRM program for a sales team](https://www.corex360.com/en/solutions/sales-teams) hour by hour. Corex360 was used in the group's own operations first. ** 08. ## How is a showroom quote prepared and tracked in Corex360? ** Short answer In Corex360 a quote is built from a template on the opportunity card, and the quote screen shows its number, customer, amount, status, approval and validity date together. A quote is named from a product or service pattern; the amount can be written in a foreign currency, the quote language can be chosen and notes can be added to lines. A revised quote stays on record with the earlier version. The quote screen has sent, accepted and success counters. The source of the opportunity is kept on the record, and an office visit is one of those sources. X AI reminds you of quotes with no reply. ## Sources - [Personal Data Protection Authority, Duty to Inform](https://www.kvkk.gov.tr/Icerik/2033/Aydinlatma-Yukumlulugu-) Last checked 24 September 2026 ## How was this page prepared? - Written by: [Şevket Erer](https://www.corex360.com/en/blog#blog-hakkinda), Co-founder, AI Specialist - Sources: legislation, official body, and vendor information is taken from the primary sources in the Sources list on this page; each source shows the date it was last checked. - Product information: sentences about Corex360 rest on the company's product fact records; unconfirmed features are not written. - Use of AI: the Corex360 team writes the text; AI tools are used for drafting and translation.

As messages, measurements, and quotes after the visit are added to the same card, tracking stays tied to the record rather than to a person. ** 02 How should visitor records be kept under KVKK (Turkish data protection law)? ** A visitor's personal data should be collected with the purpose stated clearly and only as far as that purpose needs. Who can access the record should be defined; in Corex360 access is role-based and logged. Work with your legal adviser on the content of the privacy notice. ** 03 Should a quote be given in the showroom straight away? ** For stock items the quote can be given on the day of the visit; for made-to-measure items an indicative price is given and the firm quote follows the measurement visit. Either way, the figure given should go on the customer's card, or different figures turn up in the next conversation. ** 04 How is a showroom customer who comes from Instagram followed up? ** In Corex360 Instagram messages are gathered in the same inbox as WhatsApp, and email and PBX calls link to the same customer card. Because the message links to the same person, the history is on the card when the customer comes into the store. ** 05 What happens to a consultant's customers when they leave? ** The conversation, visit note, quote, and reminders stay on the customer card, which means with the company. In Corex360 the leaver's cards are redistributed, and the consultant who takes over sees on the timeline where things stopped. ** 06 How can you tell which products draw interest in a showroom? ** When the product of interest is opened as an opportunity at every visit, the record shows which products are asked about, which turn into quotes, and where customers go quiet. That is a firmer basis for display and stock decisions than guesswork. ✳ **See this problem solved in your own work** We listen to your business with a few short questions and prepare a live online demo with your channels.
