Online quoting for merchants
A quote request that collects what you need first time (the photos, the sizes, the dates) so you price a tradesperson's job once instead of after three emails, and follow-up happens automatically.
What is included
- Step-by-step quote forms with photo upload
- Automatic acknowledgement and follow-up
- A quote desk showing what is open, priced and won
- Quotes turned into jobs or orders with one click
In practice, for merchants
Quotes in trade are job lists: forty lines priced against the account, saved, and turned into an order when the job is won. We build the quote builder into the catalogue so a contractor prices at night, and the branch sees the quote and can adjust it before it becomes an order.
Why merchants in particular
- Your trade customers order from the national chain at 9pm because you have no way to take the order.
- Prices are per account and the website shows none of them.
- The catalogue is 20,000 lines in the back-office system and a PDF on the site.
Typical ticket in your trade: €50 to €5,000 an order. One enquiry that comes to you instead of to the national chains' websites covers a lot of website.
Questions merchants ask about this
- Can the branch change a quote before it is ordered?
- Yes, with the change visible to the customer and a fresh acceptance.
