How to follow up after sending an estimate.

A good estimate does not always close on its own. Customers get busy, compare options, or forget to respond. A simple follow-up process helps you stay helpful without sounding desperate.

Follow up while the job is still fresh

For most service businesses, a first follow-up within one to two business days is reasonable. The goal is not to pressure the customer. It is to make sure they received the estimate and ask whether they have questions.

Keep the message short

A good follow-up can be as simple as: Hi, just checking that you received the estimate for the project. Happy to answer any questions or adjust timing if needed.

Set the next step

If the customer is still deciding, set another follow-up date. Do not leave the quote floating in your inbox or memory.
