Use AI to write professional follow-up emails after quotes to win more jobs in under two minutes.

You send a quote, then hear nothing. Days pass. Most plumbers either chase too hard or not at all. A quick follow-up email — friendly but professional — reminds the customer you're ready, keeps you top of mind, and often tips the decision your way. Here's how to use AI to write these in under two minutes, every time. **Step 1:** Open ChatGPT or Claude and paste the prompt below, filling in the customer's name, the job type, and how many days it's been since you sent the quote. **Step 2:** Review the email AI generates. It'll be polite, professional, and non-pushy — exactly the tone that gets responses without annoying people. **Step 3:** Tweak one or two details if needed (like adding your mobile number or adjusting the timeframe), then copy and paste it into your email or text message app. **Step 4:** Send it. That's it. You've just followed up professionally in less time than it takes to make a coffee, and you're more likely to win the job because you stayed on their radar without being annoying. **Step 5:** If they don't reply in 3–4 days, use the same prompt again but tell AI it's a 'second follow-up' and to keep it even shorter and warmer. **Step 6:** Save the best emails AI creates for you in your phone's notes app so you can tweak and reuse them for future quotes — soon you'll have a library of follow-ups ready to go.

Write a friendly follow-up email to a customer named Sarah who I sent a bathroom pipe repair quote to 4 days ago. The quote was for $850. Keep it short, professional, and non-pushy. Let her know I'm happy to answer questions and that I have availability this week if she wants to move forward.
