How follow-up runs

  1. A lead enters the CRM

    From a form, a call, a chat or by hand.

  2. The first message goes out

    A text or email confirming you got the request.

  3. Reminders follow

    If there's no reply, the next message goes on the day you chose.

  4. You move the card

    Drag the job along the pipeline as it progresses.

What does lead follow-up cost?

lead follow-up is included in every LeadGen plan, starting with Solo at $59 a month. There is no separate charge for the feature. What changes from plan to plan is how much room you have.

How many times should you follow up on an estimate?

More than once, and on a schedule, because a homeowner who doesn't reply usually hasn't said no. They got busy, they're waiting on a spouse or they're collecting other prices.

The hard part isn't knowing that. It's remembering on Thursday that you sent a price on Monday. LeadGen keeps the schedule for you and stops when the customer replies, so you step in when there's a real conversation to have.

What contractors use it for first

A simple pipeline to start with

  • New leadCame in, not yet spoken to.
  • ContactedYou've talked. Visit or estimate pending.
  • Estimate sentPrice is out. Follow-up running.
  • WonBooked. Review request comes after.

Solo includes one pipeline. Team includes multiple pipelines, for companies that sell more than one kind of job.

Lead Follow-Up and CRM questions

What is lead follow-up software?
Lead follow-up software sends scheduled messages to people who have contacted your business, so each lead hears from you more than once without someone remembering to do it. LeadGen pairs that with a CRM and pipelines, which means the follow-up is tied to where each job stands.
What is the best CRM for a small contractor?
The best one is the one you'll open every day. For a small contractor that usually means it works from a phone, keeps calls and texts under each customer, and handles follow-up and review requests so you aren't paying for several apps. That's what LeadGen's Solo plan is built to cover.
How many contacts can I store?
Solo holds up to 2,000 contacts and Silver Essentials up to 5,000. Team has unlimited contacts. If you pass your plan's limit you get an email, and you can buy more room or change plans. See pricing for details.
Can you build the automations for me?
Done-for-you help is available for lead funnels, surveys, automations and email campaigns. On the Hands Off plan we manage the system for you. Send the form and tell us what you want the follow-up to do.
