Mini kit
Your 14-day quote follow-up mini kit.
Download the workbook, then use the page below as a quick reference when you need to send the next follow-up.
14-day cadence
Four follow-ups, each with a job.
The point is not to chase harder. It is to make the next step easy, then close the loop before the conversation turns awkward.
Add one useful detail
Mention timing, scope, next available start window, or a common question.
Make replying easy
Ask whether you should keep it open. A yes, no, or later is enough.
Close the loop
Stop chasing politely and leave the door open if the timing changes.
Email templates
Copy, edit, send.
Keep these short. The more the email sounds like a normal person checking in, the better it fits this use case.
Day 1: Confirm receipt
Subject: Quick check on the quote
Hi [Name], just checking that the quote came through okay. No rush if you are still reviewing it. Happy to clarify anything if useful.
Day 3: Clarify
Subject: Any questions on the quote?
Hi [Name], I wanted to see if any part of the quote would be helpful to talk through. If priorities have shifted, that is fine too.
Day 7: Easy reply
Subject: Should I keep this open?
Hi [Name], should I keep this quote open on my side? A quick yes, no, or later is completely fine.
Day 14: Close the loop
Subject: Closing the loop
Hi [Name], I will close the loop on this for now so I do not keep bothering you. If the project comes back around, I would be happy to revisit it.
