AUTOMATION & FOLLOW-UP

Automated Estimate & Quote Follow-Up

Estimate Follow-Up is a business system designed to automatically contact prospects after you have sent them a quote, proposal, or estimate. It uses a scheduled sequence of emails, text messages, and internal tasks to ensure no opportunity is forgotten. The goal is to stay top-of-mind and guide the prospect toward a decision.

The problem it solves

Many businesses invest significant time creating detailed estimates and proposals, only to send them and hope for a response. Without a systematic follow-up process, leads go cold, communication drops, and potential revenue is lost simply because no one followed up at the right time.

How LATTICE helps

We build, configure, and integrate an automated follow-up backbone for your business. When you send a quote, our system triggers a custom sequence of communications designed to nurture the lead, handle objections, and prompt a response. This process ensures persistent, professional follow-up without manual effort, allowing your team to focus on closing engaged prospects.

How it works

  1. 01Quote is Delivered

    Your team sends an estimate or proposal to a prospect through your existing software or a system we provide, which acts as the trigger.

  2. 02Automated Sequence Begins

    The system automatically initiates a pre-built sequence of personalized emails and SMS messages at scheduled intervals.

  3. 03Prospect Re-engages

    When the prospect replies, clicks a link, or revisits the quote, the automation can pause and trigger a notification for manual takeover.

  4. 04Pipeline Status Updates

    Your CRM or sales pipeline is automatically updated based on the prospect's engagement, providing clear visibility for your sales team.

  5. 05Long-Term Nurture

    If a prospect does not purchase immediately, they can be moved into a long-term nurture campaign for future reactivation.
