Estimate recovery

Those "dead" estimates? Most of them are still alive.

Most service businesses send a quote and never follow up. The customer got busy, forgot, compared prices, hired someone else — not because your price was wrong, but because you disappeared. Lead Rescue follows up automatically so the jobs come back on their own.

The problem

Those leads aren't dead.
You just stopped showing up.

When an estimate goes cold, it's almost never because they chose someone else. Life got busy, they meant to reply, the moment passed. Most of those jobs are still available. They need one more touch.

You send quotes and hear nothing

You spent 45 minutes on-site, built the estimate, sent it — silence. You move on, they move on. That job is gone.

Manual follow-up never happens

You tell yourself you'll follow up in a week. Then you're on a job, then another, then you forget. The estimate sits in a folder and dies.

Cold leads feel awkward to chase

By the time you remember, it feels weird to reach out. Too much time has passed. The moment is gone. Automation never feels awkward.

How it works

Set it up once. It chases the jobs
you'd otherwise lose.

Three things happen automatically — you only get pulled in when someone is ready to book.

1

Estimate sent

When you send a quote, Lead Rescue starts a timer. You don't do anything differently — send the quote like you normally would.

2

Follow-up sequence fires

Day 3: a friendly check-in text. Day 7: a value-add message. Day 14: a final easy-exit message. Each one reads like you wrote it, not like a robot blast.

3

They reply, you close

When they respond, the sequence stops and the conversation comes to you. You pick it up and close the job. No dashboard to manage — just a text thread waiting for you.

Day 3

The estimate went quiet.
The follow-up didn't.

Absolutely! Let me get you on the schedule.

The sequence stops the moment they reply. No awkward texts to customers you already booked.
What you get

A persistent closer that never forgets
and never feels awkward.

Built for real service businesses — HVAC, plumbing, electrical, landscaping, roofing, and more.

3-touch sequence

Day 3, Day 7, Day 14 — the right cadence to stay top of mind without being annoying.

Sounds like you

Messages are personalized with the customer's name, job type, and your business name. Not a generic blast.

Stops when they book

The moment they reply or book, the sequence ends automatically. No awkward texts to customers you already have scheduled.

SMS by default

Texts get read. Emails get ignored. Lead Rescue uses SMS because that's where your customers actually respond.

Pays for itself with one job

Even a 10% conversion rate on your cold estimates likely covers 6 months of Anchord.

Straight answers

What owners ask us first.

How does it know when I send an estimate?

We connect via webhook or your existing system. When a quote goes out, it triggers the sequence automatically. There's also a manual "start sequence" option if you use paper quotes or a different tool.

What if I already followed up manually?

You can pause or cancel any sequence at any time. If you're already in conversation with a customer, mark it active and Lead Rescue leaves it alone. You stay in full control.

Do I need to write the follow-up messages?

No. We write them based on your business type, service, and tone. You review and approve them before we go live. Most customers say the messages sound exactly like them.

What if the customer already booked with someone else?

The sequence includes an easy out — "No worries if you went another direction, just let me know!" Most people who aren't interested respond to that, and you close the record cleanly.

How many estimates is this designed for?

Any volume. Whether you send 5 estimates a month or 50, the system handles all of them automatically — no manual tracking on your end.

Pair it with

Win jobs at every stage — not just on cold follow-up.
