# Unsold Estimate Follow-Up

You did the site visit, wrote the quote, never heard back. That job did not die. Nobody called it. A warm, disclosed AI follows up your own unsold estimates and books the work the homeowner still wants done.

These are people who already asked you for a price. Warm contacts, never a cold list. The AI states that it is an AI, and anyone who asks to stop is opted out.

## What this is
A done-for-you service that reactivates a contractor's OWN unsold estimates. The AI calls the homeowners who requested a quote and never came back, references the specific job, and re-books the ones still interested. It is not cold calling and it is not debt collection.

## Why your backlog is worth calling (sourced)
- Acquiring a new customer is 5 to 25 times more expensive than retaining an existing one: Harvard Business Review, https://hbr.org/2014/10/the-value-of-keeping-the-right-customers
- A 5% increase in customer retention can raise profits by 25% to 95%: Harvard Business Review, https://hbr.org/2014/10/the-value-of-keeping-the-right-customers
- Every estimate you wrote already cost you a drive, a site visit, and pricing time. The quiet ones are uncalled jobs, not lost ones.

## How it works
1. You point us at your own unsold estimates in your estimating tool or CRM
2. A disclosed AI calls each one, references the specific quote, and asks if they still want the work
3. Live jobs get booked into your calendar; the rest get marked so you stop chasing dead ones
4. Every call returns a recording, a transcript, and a clear status in your system

## Which quotes to reopen
Roofing replacements that went quiet, HVAC system quotes never closed, kitchen and bath remodel proposals, plumbing and electrical jobs left hanging. The bigger and quieter the job, the more there is to recover.

## Warm and disclosed, not cold and hidden
- We call only your own past estimate requests, people who asked you for a price
- The AI says it is an AI, calling on your behalf
- Opt-out and do-not-call requests are honored and logged
- The job of the call is to re-book work they already wanted, not to pitch a stranger

## Compliance note
An existing relationship does not by itself make an automated or AI voice call legal everywhere, and rules differ by country and region. We call only opted-in contacts, the AI discloses that it is an AI, opt-outs are honored, and every call is logged. We make no claim that any campaign is automatically exempt or zero risk.
