Concept for a pilot
No silent quotes.
An idea for one place where a small service business could see sent quotes, replies and reminder drafts.
This is a concept. Demand is unproven and the platform has not been built.

Quote sent. What next?
When quotes go out by email, unanswered ones are easy to lose track of. A small service business owner needs a short list: who is waiting, since when and what to do next.
How it could work
One quote, three steps
Record a sent quote
Enter the service, recipient and date to check for a reply. No inbox connection needed.
Check its status
Mark a reply or see which quotes have passed their check date. A person updates the status.
Review a reminder draft
Edit the wording and decide whether to follow up at all. Nothing is sent automatically.
