Landscaping · Another direction

If a cedar fence estimate went another direction

One polite close is enough. It is also the note that gets a call later. Do not argue with the other price.

Names, prices, and companies on this page are examples.

Say you are closing the file

Landscape and fence bids slip because the yard can wait, and a neighbor or an HOA may still have to agree. Tell them a reply reopens it. Then stop.

What not to add

Do not invent a Friday expiration on a fence price. New posts are the durable job. Board-only is cheaper and only makes sense if the posts are sound. Property line questions and a neighbor's approval stop more fences than the price.

Closing the file on your cedar fence estimate

Hi Priya,

I am guessing the cedar fence may have gone another direction, and that is all right. I will close the $4,900 estimate on my end.

If it is still in play, reply and I will pick it back up.

Thanks,

Questions

Is this the last landscaping follow-up?

Yes. Day 10 is the last email on the default schedule, and this note is that close. A reply, a phone call, or an unsubscribe stops it sooner. If they want it this season, ask which week is real. If it is a spring project, stop following up and let them reopen it.

What will the customer see if QuoteLasso sends the cedar fence email?

The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop. The words are yours. The sample on this page uses made-up names and the example price $4,900.

Send this kind of note on a schedule.

Add the estimate. QuoteLasso drafts the email in your words and, on the trial or a paid plan, can send it when it is due.
