Write a Follow-Up Email After Providing a Quote
Prompt
Write a follow-up email from a home service contractor to a homeowner after providing an estimate or quote.
Company name: {{company_name}}
Your name: {{your_name}}
Trade/service: {{service_type}} (e.g., plumbing, HVAC, roofing, painting, landscaping)
Homeowner's first name: {{homeowner_name}}
Job description: {{job_description}} (e.g., kitchen faucet replacement, AC unit installation, roof repair)
Quote amount: {{quote_amount}}
Date the quote was given: {{quote_date}}
How the quote was delivered: {{delivery_method}} (e.g., in person, emailed, over the phone)
Your availability: {{availability}} (e.g., can start next week, schedule filling up for the month)
Anything specific about the job worth mentioning: {{job_notes}} (e.g., spotted an additional issue, recommended a specific product, offered a warranty)
The email should:
- Reference the specific job you quoted
- Remind them of the quote amount and what it includes
- Address any questions or concerns they mentioned
- Mention your availability without creating false urgency
- Make it easy to say yes (reply to this email, call, or text)
- Include a brief note about your warranty or guarantee if applicable
Keep the email to 120-180 words. Tone should be professional and friendly but not salesy. You are a tradesperson, not a used car salesman. Write like a reliable person who does good work.About This Prompt
Creates a professional follow-up email after providing a quote that reminds the homeowner what you discussed, answers lingering questions, and makes it easy to move forward.
How to Use
- 1. Send this follow-up 2-3 days after providing the quote if you have not heard back.
- 2. Reference the specific job and quote amount so they do not have to dig through emails.
- 3. Mention any specific concerns they raised during the estimate visit.
- 4. Include your realistic availability — if you are booking 3 weeks out, say so.
- 5. Generate the email and review for tone — it should feel like you, not like a template.
- 6. Send from your email or business phone, not a marketing platform.
- 7. If they do not respond to this follow-up, send one more in a week, then move on.
Expected Output
A 120-180 word follow-up email with quote details, availability, and a clear path to confirm the job.
