Done-for-you quote follow-up

Last month’s quotes are still sitting there.
Nobody followed up.

Not neglect. You were running a shop.

We’re the follow-up that happens anyway — day 3, day 7, day 14, in your voice.

Your second shift doesn’t go home at five.

Built in 2–3 weeks Nothing for you to maintain 60-day guarantee

01

Quote sent

You move the card. That’s the trigger.

02

Timed follow-up

Day 3, day 7, day 14 — in your voice, without you.

03

Reply

The sequence stops the moment they answer.

04

Back to you

Part, quote, and their words land on your phone.

Why quotes go quiet

This isn’t a discipline problem.

You sent 50 quotes last month. How many got a second touch?

A quiet quote wasn’t a no. The customer was busy. They went with whoever got back to them.

You already priced the job and sent the number. That quote sits until someone follows up. But you didn’t open a shop to become a salesman, and the week fills.

You don’t need more discipline. You need something that remembers. Day 3, day 7, and day 14 only land if it isn’t you.

What changes

How it runs now. How it runs after.

Same quotes. What happens next is the difference.

How it runs now

  • Open quotes buried in email, texts, and Excel
  • You chase it when the floor finally quiets down
  • No clear stage on what’s still open
  • Reply lands somewhere — you find it two days later

How it runs after

  • Every open quote organized by stage in one place
  • We follow up what stays open — in the shop’s voice
  • You keep pricing and the relationship
  • Reply stops the sequence and lands on your phone

Who this is for

Shops that quote work.

If a customer sends you a print and asks what it costs, this is built for you.

Machining

  • CNC milling and turning
  • Screw machine work
  • Tool and die

Fabrication

  • Sheet metal
  • Press brake and forming
  • Waterjet and laser
  • Weldments and structural

Mixed

  • Job shops running both
  • Contract manufacturers
  • Short-run and prototype

Typically 5 to 50 people, quoting anywhere from a handful of RFQs a week to fifty a month.

What we build

Three things. That’s the whole product.

We don’t add a fourth next quarter and re-bill you for it.

01 / Intake

See every RFQ

RFQs arrive by email, phone, or web form. One auto-forward rule copies every emailed RFQ to us and we enter it the same business day. Quoted something off a phone call? Text us the note or use a short form on your phone. You enter nothing.

02 / Stages

Know where each one stands

Every open quote has a stage — open, quoted, followed up, won, lost. Monday morning you get one email with the numbers: what’s still quiet, what’s past day 7, what came back. Looking is optional.

03 / Action

The follow-up happens

Day 3, day 7, day 14, in your voice, without you touching it. When they reply, it stops — and the reply lands on your phone with the part and the quote.

Off your plate

We operate it. You keep the shop.

You keep every decision that touches a customer. We handle the part that only happens if something remembers.

  • Pricing and estimating decisions
  • Customer relationships
  • Who you stay close to
  • How you quote and run the floor

The sequence

What happens after a quote goes out.

Follow-up runs on a real clock and stops the moment they reply. When they write back, it lands with whoever answers — part, quote, their words — so you aren’t finding it two days later.

Immediate

Quote logged and confirmed

The RFQ lands in one place with the part details attached. The customer gets a confirmation. You get a notification. Nothing is sitting in a shared inbox waiting to be noticed.

Day 3

First touch

A short note in your voice, asking whether they got the numbers and whether anything needs adjusting. This one catches the quotes that landed in spam or got buried — which is more of them than you’d guess.

Day 7

While they’re still comparing

Most buyers are still deciding at day seven. This touch puts your capabilities and lead time back in front of them at the moment the shortlist is getting made.

Day 14

Last touch on this quote

One final, professional close-out. Plenty of jobs get awarded right here — not because the buyer changed their mind, but because you were the shop still in the conversation.

So we’re clear

Not another tool on your plate.

We don’t touch the top of your funnel. Everyone who enters this system already found you and already asked you to quote something. We work the back half — after the quote.

  • Not AI quoting software
  • Not another CRM for you to run
  • Not ads or lead gen
  • Not SEO
  • Not a website redesign
  • Not monthly reports about impressions

Pricing

What it costs.

One public path: build the system, then we follow up the work you already quoted.

$2,499 to build

then $499 / month

For reference: about what one recovered job pays for.

Consolidate every open quote, keep stages clear, and we follow up what’s open — written around how your shop actually quotes. Two to three weeks from kickoff.

60-day guarantee. If the system isn’t running the way we said it would, you get the build fee back.
  • Every open quote consolidated in one place
  • Stage tracking on all open quotes
  • Day 3, day 7, and day 14 sequences written in your voice
  • Reply detection — the sequence stops automatically
  • Replies routed to whoever answers, with the part and the quote
  • Ongoing monitoring and sequence adjustments

Start here

Let’s look at how your RFQs run today.

Tell us a little about the shop. After you submit, we’ll set up a short call — about a 15-minute teardown of how quotes run today — and walk whether a done-for-you follow-up fits.

Built by somebody who sold machinery and walked shop floors, not a marketing agency. No pitch deck. No proposal. If it isn’t a fit, we’ll say so.

Got it. We’ll reach out to set up a short call — usually within two business days.

Questions

Straight answers.

Most of our RFQs come by email — does that work?

Yes. At onboarding you add one auto-forward rule (~5 min, once). Every emailed RFQ copies to us. We enter it the same business day. You don’t touch intake again. Anything that arrives after 3pm is in by the next business morning.

Do I have to learn another system?

No. Nothing for you to maintain. Monday morning you get one email with the numbers on open quotes. When a customer replies, the part and the quote land on your phone and you answer from your own inbox like you always have. That’s the whole thing.

Do you replace our estimator?

No. We work after the quote is out — stages on open quotes, and follow up on what’s open.

What happens after I click Set up a call?

You fill a short form. We reach out to schedule a short call and walk how quotes run today (about a 15-minute teardown). If it isn’t a fit, we say so.

What about ITAR or restricted work?

We never need drawings, prints, or technical data. We work from the quote record — customer, part reference, quantity, date sent. If your shop has specific access requirements, we scope them before anything is built.
