Use the Follow Up screen

Prev Next

Overview

You can use the Follow Up screen to stay on top of sold, unsold estimates. It helps you track which customers might still be interested and follow up at the right time. If a customer is ready, you can sell the estimate directly from the screen. If not, you can log a follow-up to remind yourself to check in later. This helps make sure no potential sales are missed.
