The problem

What was going wrong

Every quote needed chasing. Then the deposit needed chasing. Then the signed contract. The office was doing all of it by hand, and on a busy week some jobs just stalled between steps.

The fix

What we built

  • Quote email and text sent the moment a quote is created
  • Automatic reminders at set times after the quote goes out
  • A call task for the salesperson when there's no reply
  • A manager alert when a quote is going cold
  • A deposit payment link sent automatically on a yes
  • The contract sent for e-signature once the deposit is paid
  • Handover to the install team as soon as it's signed

The background

For an installer, a quote isn’t the finish line. It’s the start of four more things that all need chasing: the quote itself, the deposit, the signed contract and the handover to the install team. Each step waited on someone in the office, and each wait was a chance for the customer to go cold.

How it works day to day

We automated the whole run from quote to install. The moment a quote is created, the customer gets it by email with a short text to say it’s arrived. Reminders follow at set times. If there’s still no reply, the salesperson gets a call task, and a manager is alerted when a quote is going cold.

On a yes, the deposit link goes out automatically. Once it’s paid, the contract goes for e-signature. Once it’s signed, the install team gets the handover.

The result

Each step now triggers the next one on its own. The office only gets involved when a customer actually needs a conversation, and no job stalls between steps because someone was busy.
