Quote Follow-Up for Service Businesses

After you send an estimate, customers often get busy and forget to reply. We set up polite, timed check-ins that go out automatically, so every quote gets a clear answer.

What's Included

What we build

A follow-up sequence that runs on every quote you send — so no estimate is ever just 'out there' again.

A timed follow-up sequence for every quote

When a quote goes out, the clock starts: a 24-hour check-in, a 3-day nudge, a 7-day reminder, and a final touch — each written to be helpful, not pushy.

A clear view of outstanding quotes

Every open quote sits on one board with its dollar value. You can finally see how much work is pending — and what's about to slip.

Easy paths to yes

Each follow-up gives the customer a low-friction next step: reply with a question, tap to book, or ask for a tweak to the estimate.

A future for the ones that don't close

Quotes that don't book aren't deleted — they move to a follow-up list and hear from you again next season, when the timing may be right.

  • Automatic follow-up on every sent quote
  • 24-hour / 3-day / 7-day / final touch sequence
  • Messages written in your voice
  • A list of all outstanding quotes
  • Dollar value tracking on open quotes
  • Auto-stop when the customer replies
  • Booking link inside follow-ups
  • Follow-up list for unanswered quotes
  • Owner alerts when a quote heats up
How It Works

How it works

  1. 01

    Sending a quote starts the sequence

    Mark a quote as sent — from your phone, in seconds — and the follow-up schedule attaches to that customer automatically.

  2. 02

    Messages go out at proven intervals

    24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, final touch. Spaced to stay present without crowding the customer.

  3. 03

    Any reply stops the automation

    The moment the customer responds, automatic messages stop and you take over the conversation. Nobody ever gets a robot reply mid-discussion.

  4. 04

    Booked, or banked

    Quotes either convert to booked jobs, or roll into your follow-up list for a well-timed message down the road.

FAQ

Common questions

Usually because life got busy, they're comparing options, or the decision just isn't urgent for them yet — not because they chose someone else. That's exactly why timed follow-up works: you're present at the moment they're finally ready to decide.

Three to five touches over about two weeks is the sweet spot for most service businesses — enough to stay present through the customer's decision window without becoming noise. Our default sequence is 24 hours, 3 days, 7 days, and a final touch.

Not when it's spaced correctly and written to help. “Want me to hold a spot for next week?” reads as good service. Annoying is six messages in two days — which the sequence timing prevents.

Short, personal, useful. First touch confirms they got the quote and invites questions. Later touches add a reason to act — scheduling, season, availability. We write the whole sequence with you so it sounds like you, not a template.

All automated messages stop instantly and the conversation is yours. The system never talks over a live discussion.

Yes. However you deliver the estimate, logging it takes seconds from your phone — and that's all the system needs to start the follow-up schedule.
