What we build

Instant quote tools and estimating systems

Quoting is where most businesses lose money twice. Once on the hours spent producing quotes by hand, and again on the ones that were never followed up.

What it is

A quoting system holds your pricing rules in one place, so two people quoting the same job arrive at the same number, and a price can be produced while the customer is still interested.

It runs in two directions. Facing the customer, it can give a real figure on your website so people self qualify before they ever speak to you. Facing your team, it turns an agreed number into a document, a deposit link and a follow up sequence without anybody retyping anything.

When a business needs one

  • Quotes take a morning and go out two days after the enquiry
  • Two people price the same job differently and both are defensible
  • You find out a quote was never chased when the customer buys elsewhere
  • Enquiries arrive with no budget attached and half of them were never going to afford it
  • The verbal yes and the paid deposit are days apart, and some of them never close that gap

What we can build

Capability, not a claim about work already delivered. What we have actually built and run is further down the page.

  • An instant price calculator on your own site, driven by a pricing model you control
  • Pricing rules that produce the same number twice, whoever is quoting
  • A quote document generated from the agreed figure rather than typed again
  • A deposit or instalment payment link at the moment of the yes
  • Follow up that chases the quote on a schedule and stops when the customer replies
  • Reporting on what was quoted, what closed, and what quietly went cold
  • A qualification step, so the quotes you spend time on are the ones worth having

How we approach it

The pricing model is the project. Getting the rules out of somebody's head and into something explicit is most of the work, and it is usually the first time a business has seen its own pricing written down.

The pricing model is written down before the interface is built. That is how the same job gets the same answer twice, whoever is quoting it.
