About This Automation
On-site quoting and estimating for landscaping services involves visiting a property, measuring the space, and calculating material and labor costs before drafting a written quote. This manual sequence is slow and prone to pricing errors, often delaying a decision for days.
An automated version calculates pricing directly from site measurements and notes, then drafts and delivers a formatted quote without manual entry. Follow-ups and outcome tracking happen automatically, shortening the time between site visit and signed job.

How The Automation Works
The full workflow, from trigger to completion.
An incoming customer request starts the workflow automatically.
A site visit slot is created and the assigned estimator is notified.
The automation pulls site measurements, photos, and job notes, applies current material and labor rates, and calculates the quote total.
Only when the calculated cost falls outside standard pricing bounds, the owner reviews and adjusts the figure before it proceeds.
The automation drafts a formatted quote using the approved figures and emails it to the customer.
A polite follow-up email is sent if the customer hasn't responded within three days.
The automation logs the won or lost outcome and, if approved, creates the invoice and job record.
