ELECTRICAL LEAD FOLLOW-UP

Electrician lead follow-up timed to the car delivery, not your week.

An upgrade quote often waits on something else: a car arriving, a solar install date, a heat pump order. Follow-up that knows that date keeps you in the job.

WHERE IT BREAKS

Lead follow-up for electricians: what goes wrong.

01

Quotes parked until the car shows up

The homeowner says they’ll call when the EV arrives. By then, the installer the dealer mentioned has already been in touch.

02

Site visits without the panel photo

Your electrician drives out without knowing the panel size, then needs a second trip to price the job properly.

03

The utility step goes unexplained

After the signature, nobody tells the homeowner the reconnect date depends on the utility. They call your office asking why nothing is happening.

WHAT WE RUN

Built for electricians. Run by us.

Instant text on upgrade requests

Names the project they asked about and offers site-visit times, sent from your business while your electricians are on jobs.

A reminder that asks for the panel photo

The day before the visit, homeowners get a reminder with a request to send a photo of the panel label.

Check-ins tied to their date

If the quote waits on a car, a heat pump, or solar, follow-up is scheduled around that date instead of a fixed every-few-days pattern.

Status texts after signing

Short updates explain where the job stands with permits and the utility, so your office isn’t fielding the same question five times.

AN EXAMPLE WE WROTE

Example follow-up sequence after an EV charger and panel request (written for illustration, not a client’s messages)

  1. 01Minute 0: “Hi [Name], it’s [Company]. Got your request about an EV charger at [street]. Pick a time for a site visit: [link]. Reply STOP to opt out.”
  2. 02Day before the visit: “[Electrician] will see you tomorrow at [time]. If you can, text us a photo of the label inside your panel door.”
  3. 03Quote sent: “Your quote is in your inbox. It covers the charger, the circuit, and the permit. Happy to go through any line.”
  4. 04Two weeks before the car arrives: “Your delivery is coming up on [date]. Want to lock in an install day so you’re set up when it gets home?”
  5. 05After signing: “We’ve asked the utility for a reconnect date. We’ll text as soon as we have it.”
  6. 06Any reply pauses the automation and goes to your office.

STRAIGHT ANSWERS

Questions we hear.

How fast should electricians respond to an upgrade request?

Within minutes. The homeowner who just ordered a car or signed for solar is collecting quotes now. An automatic text covers the moment, and someone from your office calls as soon as they can.

Why ask for a panel photo before the site visit?

It lets your electrician arrive knowing the panel’s size and age, which can save a second trip and makes the first conversation about options instead of discovery.

How long should follow-up run on a panel quote?

As long as the homeowner’s timeline. If the quote waits on a car delivery or a solar install months away, follow-up stays light until that date gets close, then picks up.

Does this work with our scheduling software?

We connect to common tools such as Jobber, Housecall Pro, ServiceTitan, and GoHighLevel, so new requests and booked visits show up where your office already works.

Your crew is ready for the next job. Is your calendar?
