WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS

Most quote requests are not lost to a lower price. They are lost in the days between the request and the reply.

A homeowner who wants a price is usually asking three or four businesses at once. The first one to send a clear number has a real head start on the site visit and the job. Meanwhile your inbox fills with people who only wanted a rough idea, and the serious buyers wait in line behind them. This is how it usually goes.

WHAT WE BUILD FOR BUSINESSES LIKE YOURS

Here is what we build for businesses that send quotes.

Each piece closes one of the gaps above. Sarah would have seen a price range on your website and booked a visit herself. Mike would have been sorted from the price-shoppers and called first. Emma would have heard from you a week later, and again in spring. Each piece works on its own, and they work best together.

PIECE 1 OF 4

An instant price range on your website

Visitors answer a few questions about the job and see a fair price range straight away, worked out the way your estimator would do it. People who can afford it ask for a visit, and people who can't stop asking.

Questions that sort out serious buyers

Before a request reaches your inbox, the buyer tells you their budget, their start date and where the job is. You can see who is ready at a glance, and you call them first.

PIECE 3 OF 4

Site visits booked into your calendar

Serious buyers pick a time for a site visit or a call from the slots you choose, so nobody has to wait for a reply before they can book.

PIECE 4 OF 4

Follow-up that keeps going after the quote

When someone says “not yet”, they get a short, useful note a week later and again before the season starts, written in your voice, until they sign or tell you no.

ALSO AVAILABLE · WEBSITE OVERHAUL

And when the website itself is the problem

Some firms need more than a funnel. We rewrite the messaging so it speaks to the jobs you want, refresh the brand, and rebuild the site with the price range, the questions and the booking built in. We also add a page for each service and each city you work in, so someone searching for an ADU builder in Austin lands on a page written for them.

CASE STUDIES

Here is one quote business we worked for, and one we rebuilt on our own.

Client work is labelled as client work. A rebuild is a website we rebuilt on our own to show what we would change and why. Those businesses have not hired us, and every rebuild says so.

NOT A CLIENT · A rebuild we made to show how we'd do it

A roofing company in Dallas

Homeowners could not see a price, and the contact form told the company nothing about the roof. We rebuilt it with a price range, three qualifying questions, inspection booking and follow-up.

CLIENT WORK

Buildbusters, permit-ready drawings

We replaced the contact form with a pricing quiz that shows a ballpark price, then a full quote buyers can pay for online. We will share the results once Buildbusters signs off.

HOW TO WORK WITH US

  1. STEP 1

    Leak Audit

    $497

    A recorded teardown of how your business handles a quote request today, from the first click to the signed job, with a ranked list of what to fix first.

  2. STEP 2
    BUILT FOR QUOTE BUSINESSES

    Fix the leaks

    from $3,500

    We build the instant price range, the qualifying questions, site-visit booking and follow-up, and connect them to the tools you already use.

  3. STEP 3

    Growth partner

    from $1,500/mo

    Each month we watch where people drop off, improve what is already there and add what is missing as you grow.
