Follow-up for electrical estimates and past jobs
Electricians can follow up automatically on the large quotes that go quiet, such as panel upgrades, rewires and EV chargers, plus visit confirmations and post-job checks. The messages are short, mention the specific job and invite questions. You approve the wording, and the follow-up stops when the customer replies.
Talk through your electrical business with the person who builds it
A free 30-minute call. You leave knowing which part of your electrical contractor to hand to AI first, what we would build, and roughly how long it takes.
Big quotes, slow decisions
A panel upgrade is a big spend. The customer may be waiting on an insurance company, a spouse or the utility. A friendly check-in with an offer to walk through the scope makes it easy to say yes.
If the quote was long, offer a short call to walk through each line instead of sending more paperwork.
Permits and inspections
Customers like to know where things stand. A note when the permit is filed, when the inspector is booked and when the inspection passes spares you the calls.
After the job
A check after a week that everything works, and a note on any breaker or outlet to watch, shows care and catches callbacks early.
Keep a note of customers who asked about future work, like a pool or a shop, and check in later.
Picture this
Examples of what it can look like. Illustrations, not clients.
Four days after quoting a panel upgrade, the homeowner gets a message offering to explain the load calculation. They book the same week.
An inspection is set for Tuesday. The customer gets a text Monday reminding them to clear access to the panel.
After a job, a customer gets a note reminding them which breaker serves the new circuit, and to call if it trips.
The rules that apply, in their own words

Questions
How often should I follow up on a quote?
A couple of times over a few weeks is normal. Then stop.
Does it stop if they reply?
It should, and the reply goes to you or your office.
Should I follow up on small jobs?
A short thank-you and a check is enough. Save longer follow-up for big quotes.
