Home Library Estimate & Bid Follow-Up Engine
ConstructionAutomationSales

Win the bids you already sent.

The average contractor sends an estimate and waits. The ones who win follow up, every single time. This automates the entire follow-up sequence by text and email until the client responds.

Estimate & Bid Follow-Up Engine
Sound familiar?

Stop leaving signed jobs on the table.

Right now

  • You send an estimate and hope they call back
  • Follow-up depends on someone remembering
  • Bids go cold and you never find out why
  • No view of how many quotes are still open

With this build

  • Every estimate gets a timed follow-up sequence
  • Text and email go out automatically until they reply
  • Warm replies route straight to the estimator
  • One list of every open bid and its status
How the system works

The data flow.

The moment an estimate goes out, the engine takes over the follow-up, and hands the warm reply straight back to your estimator.

What it centralizes

Every open bid, tracked.

  • Follow-up status per bid
  • Who has and hasn't responded
  • Days since the estimate was sent
  • Win rate by estimator
  • Total value of open bids
What it looks like for you

The $40k bid you forgot about.

You quoted a deck rebuild three weeks ago and got busy. Behind the scenes, the engine sent a friendly check-in on day 2, a value reminder on day 6, and a "still interested?" nudge on day 12. On day 13 the homeowner replied "yes, let’s do it" and it pinged your estimator instantly.

You didn't lift a finger. The bid you would have written off just turned into a signed job, because something followed up when you couldn't.
