How to Track Client Estimates on iPhone Without Losing Bids

(Step-by-Step Guide)

A 4-minute read for general contractors, remodelers, and trades.

"Used by 500+ independent contractors to send $2M+ in monthly quotes."

To track client estimates on an iPhone without losing bids, contractors need a mobile workflow that records lead details, sends branded quotes instantly, and alerts you the moment a client opens or approves a bid. Doing this directly from the job site eliminates evening office work and prevents bids from going cold.

The 4-Step On-Site Estimate Workflow

  1.  Capture Details Immediately: Log the client’s name, address, and project notes in a single mobile entry
    during the initial walk through.
  2.  Build Quotes Using Assemblies: Use pre-saved cost items (materials, labor per square foot, sub costs) to
    generate accurate bids in under three minutes.
  3.  Send via SMS and Email: Text a direct web link of the proposal to the homeowner while still standing in their
    driveway.
  4.  Automate Follow-Ups: Set automated text reminders at 24 and 72 hours for any quote that remains
    unapproved.

Key Rule for Contractors: The first contractor to deliver a professional, easy-to-approve estimate wins the job over
60% of the time. Waiting 48 hours to email a proposal drops your win rate significantly.
