One SMS + email sample when a written pest quote has had no reply.
Marketing and ops only. Not pesticide, safety, legal, or financial advice. No recovered-quote promises.
When to use this
You sent a clear written quote. Time has passed with no reply. A soft check-in beats silence or a pushy “last chance” on the first nudge. Only message people you have permission to contact. Timing is your judgment — LocalePulse doesn’t prescribe a fixed day count.
Sample
First quiet-quote follow-up — SMS + email
Edit notes: Keep the service accurate. Soft ask. Stop if they opt out or say no. Optional booking line under signature if you use one.
SMS

FAQ
What should I send after a quiet pest control quote?
A short, soft check-in that confirms they received the quote, names the service and quote date, invites questions, and makes it easy to reply or call. Only contact people you have permission to message. Timing is your judgment.
Should the first follow-up pressure them to book?
No. LocalePulse’s first follow-up is a soft check-in. Harder closes, if you use them at all, come later and only within your own ethics and spam rules.
Does follow-up guarantee recovered quotes?
No. Materials only. We do not promise recovered quotes, bookings, or revenue.
Is there a done-for-you option?
The Pest Lead Fix Pack (A$39 one-off) writes a missed-call reply kit, a Google review kit and Google Business Profile fixes for your pest control business. Quote follow-ups aren’t part of the pack; the templates on this page are free to use.
