How This Automation Works
Client Submits Project Request → Professional Quote Delivered Automatically
Client Submits Project Details
Potential customer fills out your quote request form with property address, size, desired services (lawn care, hardscaping, planting, etc.), timeline, and special requirements. The intake form can be embedded on your website, sent via email, or accessed through your client portal.
System Processes Service Requirements
The automation extracts project details and categorizes services requested. It identifies property size, service complexity, required materials, and estimated labor hours based on your pre-configured service definitions and calculation formulas.
Pricing Engine Calculates Costs
Your custom pricing rules are applied automatically, including base rates per square foot, service-specific pricing, material costs with markups, equipment fees, and seasonal adjustments. The system calculates subtotals for each service category and generates a comprehensive project total.
Quote Document Generated
A professional, branded PDF quote is created with itemized services, detailed cost breakdowns, project timeline, terms and conditions, and payment information. The document includes your logo, contact details, and optional photos of similar completed projects.
Quote Delivered to Client
The completed quote is automatically emailed to the client within minutes of their request. The email includes a personalized message, the quote attachment, and clear next steps for approval or scheduling a consultation. The quote is also stored in your system for tracking and follow-up.
How It Works
Transform your landscaping quoting process with intelligent automation that generates professional estimates instantly. When a potential client submits a project inquiry through your website, email, or intake form, the system automatically calculates costs based on property size, requested services (lawn care, hardscaping, planting, irrigation), material requirements, and labor hours. Your custom pricing rules, seasonal adjustments, and service bundles are applied automatically, creating a detailed, branded quote document that's sent directly to the client within minutes. The system maintains a complete quote history, tracks conversion rates, and can automatically follow up with clients who haven't responded. No more spreadsheet calculations, manual data entry, or delayed responses that lose you business to faster competitors.
The Trigger
Automation activates when a potential customer fills out a landscaping quote request form on your website, sends an email inquiry with project details, or submits information through your client portal. The system captures property details, service requirements, timeline, budget range, and contact information.
The Action
The system calculates pricing based on your custom rate cards, generates a professionally formatted PDF quote with itemized services and costs, stores the quote in your CRM, and emails it directly to the client with personalized messaging and next steps for approval.
