Old Quote & Estimate Follow-Up Campaigns for General Contractors

{"faqs":[{"answer":"We work from whatever list you have — CSV export, CRM dump, spreadsheet, even a PDF printout. No integration needed. You send the list; we segment and run the campaign. Replies go to your existing booking flow.","question":"How does this work with my estimating software like Buildertrend or STACK?"},{"answer":"Industry median quote conversion is 73.9%, but top performers hit 90%+ — the difference is systematic follow-up. Our campaigns typically run 2–4 weeks; first replies often arrive within days of the initial outreach wave.","question":"What's the typical conversion rate for old quote follow-up in general contracting?"},{"answer":"No. We handle all compliance: TCPA, A2P 10DLC registration, opt-out management, and calling regulations. We only contact your real past customers/prospects — no cold lists, no purchased data. You approve every message.","question":"Do I need to worry about TCPA or texting compliance for construction outreach?"},{"answer":"Campaigns run 2–4 weeks end-to-end. Replies often start within days of the first outreach wave. We handle confirmations and no-show follow-up so your calendar fills without you chasing.","question":"How long until I see booked jobs from old estimates?"},{"answer":"An inside sales rep costs $50K+/year plus management. CRM automation requires setup, scripting, and monitoring — and still needs someone to make calls. We're done-for-you: real humans calling, texts/emails in your name, full compliance, no software, flat setup + per-minute pricing that scales down.","question":"How is this different from hiring an inside sales rep or using a CRM automation?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free List Review & Segmentation","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Send us your quote/estimate list (CSV, CRM export, spreadsheet).

Replies route straight into your booking process so your project coordinator can scope and schedule. Moving from 60% to 85% conversion on $5M in quoting volume is $1.25M in revenue and roughly $500K in gross profit at 40% margins — the gap is follow-up, not more leads.","proof_point":"Converted quotes close in a median of 2 days; moving 60% to 85% conversion on $5M quoting volume = $1.25M revenue and ~$500K gross profit at 40% margins (Level, 438,000 quotes)"},{"icon":"Shield","title":"Full Control, Zero Compliance Risk","gradient":"from-blue-500 to-purple-500","description":"You approve every script, offer, and message before anything goes out — 'We plan the campaign together, you sign off, we run it.'

For a general contractor juggling bid management, change orders, and daily logs, unsent estimates are pure revenue leakage: the work was priced, the margin was calculated, and the job was never even offered."},{"icon":"Clock","stat":"2 vs 29 days","color":"from-orange-500 to-yellow-500","title":"Won jobs close in 2 days — lost quotes linger 29 days with no follow-up","description":"Converted quotes close in a median of 2 days, while lost quotes sit for a median of 29 days, per Level's analysis of 438,000 quotes across 2,200+ contractors. That gap is almost entirely follow-up speed and persistence. Most GCs send one estimate and move on to the next takeoff — homeowners and commercial clients go quiet, hire a competitor, or forget the bid entirely. Without a systematic follow-up process, every unanswered quote is a job you already won on paper."},{"icon":"Target","stat":"73.9% median","color":"from-yellow-500 to-green-500","title":"You can't improve a quote conversion rate you never track","description":"The median contractor close rate is 73.9% — but top decile contractors hit 90.0%. Most general contractors don't measure quote conversion at all, so they can't tell whether a bid was lost on price, on timing, or simply because no one ever followed up. That blind spot leaves $1.25M+ on the table per $5M in quoting volume, and it's invisible in your FSM reports because the problem isn't estimating — it's what happens after the estimate leaves your office."}],"quickWins":["Start with a free list review — we'll segment your unsent and unclosed estimates by recency and show you what's recoverable before you spend a dollar.","Pair old-quote follow-up with seasonal campaign timing — reconnect on kitchen, bath, and addition bids right before peak building season in your market."],"subheadline":"We reactivate your old estimates with approved, personal outreach — calls, texts, and emails that feel useful, not pushy — so past prospects finally say yes.","problemTitle":"The Hidden Revenue Leak in Every General Contractor's Pipeline","testimonials":[{"quote":"We had two years of estimates sitting in our CRM — bids we'd priced, taken off, and never closed.
