How to run a weekly quote follow-up block
Most quotes are lost to silence, not to a no. A fixed weekly block fixes that.
- Pick a recurring time. Same day and hour each week, with the list open before you start.
- Sort open quotes by age and size. Start with the largest recent ones, then the oldest.
- Send a short, specific message. Mention the job, ask one easy question, and offer a next step.
- Log the result. Mark each quote won, lost, waiting or call back on a date.
- Close the loop. After a set time with no reply, send a polite last note and mark it closed.
Common questions
How often should I follow up on one quote?
A reasonable pattern is a few days after sending, a week later, then one last note. Adjust to your customers.
What should I write?
Keep it short and human, reference something specific from the visit, and make replying easy.
