Old Quote & Estimate Follow-Up Campaigns for Holiday Decorating Companies

{"faqs":[{"answer":"We time the Old Quote & Estimate Follow-Up campaign to your booking window — typically launching in late summer or early fall so replies convert before your install calendar fills. Campaigns run 2–4 weeks end-to-end with responses as soon as the first wave goes out. You approve the seasonal offer and messaging, we handle the outreach, and booked jobs land in your existing calendar.","question":"How does this work for holiday lighting companies with a 90-day season?"},{"answer":"Yes. We work from any CRM, spreadsheet, or point-of-sale list exactly as it is — including Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, or a simple CSV. No data cleanup or software integration needed on your end. We segment by recency, quote value, and job type during the free list review.","question":"Can you work from my Jobber or Housecall Pro export of past estimates?"},{"answer":"Our scripts acknowledge that possibility and position your follow-up as a value check — not a hard sell. Many homeowners who booked elsewhere had a poor experience (missed takedown, damaged lights, no communication). A well-timed, permission-based call from your business often wins them back for next season or uncovers referrals.","question":"What if a homeowner already booked with a competitor this year?"},{"answer":"Not required, but most clients include a seasonal incentive — like early-bird pricing, free takedown, or a lighting upgrade — to create urgency. We co-create the offer with you during the approval phase. You have final say on every word and number before anything is sent.","question":"Do I need to provide a special offer or discount for old quotes?"},{"answer":"Three differences: (1) Real humans make the calls — not robocalls or voicemail drops — so conversations actually happen. (2) Every script, text, and email is approved by you first, so your brand voice stays intact. (3) Replies route into your booking process with confirmations and no-show follow-up built in. You don't manage the outreach — you just get the booked jobs.","question":"How is this different from sending a mass email or using a dialer myself?"}],"steps":[{"step":"1","title":"Free List Review & Segmentation","gradient":"from-orange-500 to-red-500","description":"Send us your past quote list — CRM export, spreadsheet, or POS report.

Your next booked customer already knows your business: they've seen your roofline work, heard your linear-foot pricing, and maybe even had a takedown quote in hand.

Top operators book $250K–$750K in a single 90-day window, but that only happens when every past quote request is worked before the season starts. The quote requests from last October who never booked are the cheapest revenue you're not collecting — and most customers forget a business within ~12 months, so waiting until next season means starting from zero."},{"icon":"PhoneMissed","stat":"Near-zero barrier","color":"from-orange-500 to-yellow-500","title":"Homeowners Treat Holiday Lighting Like a Commodity — Whoever Re-Engages First Wins","description":"With near-zero barriers to entry, your market is saturated with part-time handymen and landscapers hanging lights every December.
