Tree service · Another direction

If a tree removal 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

Tree bids go quiet because the tree has been there for years, until a storm makes it urgent. Tell them a reply reopens it. Then stop.

What not to add

Do not price a stump you cannot reach with the grinder. The price is the climb over the garage and the haul-away. The stump is a grinder, not part of the climb. A neighbor under the canopy, or a city permit on a protected tree, can stop the job.

If you send it from QuoteLasso

The default schedule is three emails, at 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last one. You can move the dates. Add the estimate by typing it in, forwarding the message, or importing a spreadsheet. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com. A reply comes to your inbox and the remaining follow-ups stop. QuoteLasso does not send texts. During the 14-day trial, due emails can send on their own. After that, Free is manual. Starter is $79/month and Pro is $149/month.

Closing the file on your tree removal estimate

Hi Janet,

I am guessing the tree removal may have gone another direction, and that is all right. I will close the $3,400 estimate on my end.

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

Thanks,

Questions

Is this the last tree service 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 it is leaning over a roof, say you can do it before the next wind. If it is a planned removal, it can wait for better access.

What will the customer see if QuoteLasso sends the tree removal 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 $3,400.

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.
