Subject
Should I close your {{system_type}} quote?Hi {{client_name}},
I have not heard back about your {{system_type}} proposal, so I am going to close the follow-up on my side after this note. You will not keep getting quote reminders from us.
If you chose another contractor, no problem. If you are still deciding, reply with the question that is holding things up and I will answer it directly. We can also give you a no-pressure second opinion on equipment tier, installation scope, warranty, or a competing proposal you already have. We will compare the written details, not make claims about work we have not inspected.
Your current proposal is valid through {{quote_expiration_date}}. After that, equipment availability and pricing may need to be confirmed again rather than assumed.
Reply with “keep open,” “question,” or “close,” and I will take care of it.
Best,

Delay
7 days after the installation-timing email.

- Send from the assigned owner and offer three reply choices.
- End automation after send and create a task only when the recipient replies.
Stop conditions
- Stop before send on any reply, acceptance, decline, booking, expiry, proposal revision, or opt-out.
- End all automated quote follow-up immediately after this email.
- Do not reopen automation without a new customer action and human decision.
Compliance / Risk Notes
- The quote expiration date must match the written proposal.
- Do not claim that pricing or equipment will change unless it actually must be reconfirmed.
- Second-opinion comparisons must be factual and limited to scopes or documents actually reviewed.
Subject Line Variations
- Should I close your {{system_type}} quote?
A direct close-the-loop question.
- Last follow-up on your HVAC replacement proposal
Sets a truthful expectation that automation ends.
- Keep open, question, or close?
Mirrors the low-effort reply choices in the email.
Mistakes To Avoid
- Sending more automated reminders after the closeout
It breaks the promise made in the email.
Use instead: Terminate the workflow after send and wait for a new customer action.
- Using the second opinion to disparage competitors
Unsupported claims reduce trust and create legal risk.
Use instead: Compare written equipment, scope, warranty, and price facts only.
