How to get more quotes accepted (and get paid faster)

Every quote sitting in someone's inbox is a job you haven't lost yet — but probably will. Here's how to get more of them over the line.

← All resources

You spend an hour pricing a job, send the quote, and then... silence. You're not sure if they opened it, forgot it, or went with someone else. Chasing feels pushy, so you don't — and another job quietly slips away.

For most businesses, the quote stage is where the most money leaks. The hard work to win the job is already done; it just never gets followed through.

Why quotes go cold

It's rarely price. Customers go quiet because life got busy, they're comparing options, or they're waiting for a nudge that never comes. A quote with no follow-up is a coin flip. A quote with timely, automatic follow-up is a conversation — and conversations close.

Put every quote on a pipeline

Our CRM moves every job through one visible pipeline: enquiry, quote sent, followed up, won, invoiced, paid. Nothing lives in your head or a forgotten inbox.

  • See exactly which quotes are outstanding and how old they are
  • Automatic follow-up texts and emails go out on a schedule you set
  • The customer can accept with a tap — no phone tag
  • Won jobs roll straight into an invoice, so you get paid sooner

Follow-up that doesn't feel like nagging

A friendly “just checking you got our quote — happy to answer anything” at the right moment isn't pushy, it's service. Automating it means it happens for every quote, not just the ones you remember, and it stops the moment they reply.

Faster yes, faster paid

When the quote, the follow-up and the invoice all live in one system, the gap between “I'll think about it” and money in your account shrinks from weeks to days. You do the same work and win more of it.
