Landscaping

Follow up on landscaping estimates before the season moves on

Landscape work slips because the yard can wait. A follow-up that asks about timing, and then stops, is more useful than a string of “still interested?” notes.

Where the estimate stalls

  • The season is the deadline, not you

    Planting, fence, and hardscape dates are real. Name the season you’re booking. Don’t pretend the price expires on Friday if it doesn’t.

  • Design and price get mixed together

    If the estimate is for a fence, follow up on the fence. If they also asked about plants, keep that as a separate question so the email stays short.

  • Spring work gets decided in winter

    One note that you’ll wait until they ask for dates is a clean end. You can reopen it when they reply.

Example emails

Names, prices, and businesses below are examples, not customers. Swap in the job you actually priced.

Your cedar fence estimate

Hi Priya,

Checking that the cedar fence estimate for $4,900 came through. The price includes taking out the old fence and hauling it away.

Reply if you want to keep the posts and only replace the boards.

Thanks,

Want me to hold a week for the fence?

Hi Priya,

If you want the fence this season, tell me which week is realistic and I’ll see if I can hold it. The estimate is $4,900.

If this is a spring project, say so and I’ll stop following up for now.

Thanks,

I’ll wait to hear on the fence

Hi Priya,

I’ll close the follow-ups on the cedar fence estimate for $4,900. Reply when you want dates, including next spring, and I’ll send a fresh schedule.

Thanks,

How QuoteLasso helps

  • Add the customer, email, amount, and job. You can type it in, forward the estimate, or import a spreadsheet.
  • The default schedule is 2, 5, and 10 days. Day 10 is the last email. You see the dates before you save, and you can change them.
  • The first check-in, the second reminder, and the final follow-up each have their own wording. The customer sees your business name and the address followups@quotelasso.com.
  • During the 14-day Starter trial, due follow-ups send on their own. Turn that off in Settings and nothing goes out until you press Send.
  • After the trial, the Free plan stays manual. Starter ($79/month) and Pro ($149/month) turn automatic sending back on.
  • When a customer replies, the rest of the follow-ups stop. Every email has a link to unsubscribe.

Questions

Should landscapers follow up on maintenance quotes the same way?

A one-time install or fence bid fits this schedule. A weekly mowing agreement is a different conversation. Don’t use a breakup email for a route you still want to sell every month.

What if they don’t use email much?

Send the estimate details by email, and use a short text if you already text that customer. Text samples and opt-out wording are on the text template page. QuoteLasso’s automatic follow-ups are email.

Can I import jobs I already priced?

Yes. Add them one at a time, or import a spreadsheet. QuoteLasso shows the follow-up dates before you save, and you can change them.
