Stop Losing Jobs: How Consistent Quote Follow-Up Can Double Your Closing Rate

If you’re in the home service industry—whether you run a roofing company, flooring business, or window and door operation—you already know how much work goes into getting a lead. Marketing, referrals, networking, driving to the site, walking the job, and finally preparing the quote.

But here’s the painful truth: up to 80% of quotes never get a follow-up.

That means most contractors are leaving thousands of dollars on the table every single month, not because their pricing is off or their workmanship isn’t top-tier—but simply because no one followed up with the customer.

Why Follow-Up Matters More Than You Think

Studies show that:

50% of sales happen after the 5th follow-up.
Most contractors stop after one or two attempts.
Homeowners are busy—they often need reminders before they make a decision.

Think about it: your potential client may like your quote, but then their kid’s soccer practice runs late, their boss drops a new deadline on them, or they simply forget to respond. The contractor who follows up consistently is the one who gets the job.

The Contractor’s Dilemma

You’re already running a crew, ordering materials, managing schedules, handling payroll, and putting out fires on jobsites. By the end of the day, the last thing you want to do is spend hours chasing down leads. And yet, those unreturned calls and emails are costing you real money.

That’s where SyncQuote comes in.
