Interested in a nice little add-on?

Just testing the waters. Would anybody be interested if I had started selling custom "instant quote" pages? I'm thinking about around 250 a pop installed (with many more options available) . For an example check out my page. http://www.ihatepressurewashing.com/cost-estimator.html . The tool allows the interested customer to fill out the form. Their answers automatically get texted to you/saved in a database/ and emailed to you so that you can quickly respond. Have another idea for a tool or app ? Maybe we can work something out.
 
Just a comment...the header says "rough estimate" but in the box it says "live quote." Might get confusing which is being provided.
 
No problem in the lack of interest figured id just an idea, im not sure how much a database full of customer information addresses and contacts are worth in your market; however convenience is king in NJ (atleast by my metrics). Also, Im sure wouldn't want to sell something that hasn't worked for myself (sites up 4 days now, a couple sleepless nights the forms up now and already popping out 4+ new contacts with a few jobs alone from it a day)I suppose the people that dont book might be useful for a mailer down the road. Definitally thanks for the tip Dave I'll have to reiterate on the wording a bit though in the end it is a live quote texted/emailed sent to the business answered Live by the business might catch a few more bites if I throw the live up on the referring page as well. This is only the tip of the iceburg though perhaps some people will be interested in this or in the near future "super tool". It'll be a bit more than the cost of a single roof wash but still affordable to help everyone out.
 
What if there are variables?

How do you handle that?

This is what determines my final price. I have x amount for each type of roof & size. Then I add cost for how high up roof is, pitch, accessibility, PITA factors, plants/flowers..... 2000 sq ft home with lots of these factors can be much more expensive than same house with none of these factors. I'm a "gotta see it" kind of guy. I personally go to every jobs proposal.

That can get expensive.
 
Sorry have been all over today . Everything is completely customizable (from matching the pages to your layout, type of questions, where to send/save etc.) for any variables you might be interested in, to address the roofing pricing I personally (and might not work best for everyone) have not physically gone on a single residential roof washing estimate in atleast 3 years now. With google earth, cookie cutter homes, and the right questions why would you? I plan on rolling out a quick little sales page some time this weekend night with a few of the tools I am going to be providing for businesses. All with the ability to be installed, customized and EASY adjustable user interface if your the DIY kind of guy.

So these would fit nicely or work nicely on a WP site???
 
Yup I can easily either install to any platform , likely through remote desktop for you or get a drag and drop system going.
 
I have to say, you've peaked my interest. It could prove to be handy little tool to get you in the door for the people that are considering getting work done but procrastinating or just avoiding it. It's quick and easy way to find out cost.
I at least attempt a free face to face for all of them to give me a little time to get a little more personal and to assess the need for any of my other services - it's always good to turn a house wash into a house wash plus lawn maintenance every 10 days, or plus anything for that matter.

As long as the interest has been peaked what would you all say to something like 1.99 a month an extra $24 a year or so and your potential customers have the ability to upload photos of their intended work ? Under the premises they give yoy 100% rights to the pictures . Heck of a mailer now , including an easy before picture saved. For various reasons.
 
Sure will! Thanks Halston this weekend is my own personal cutoff for getting it all readily available, haven't missed one of those in quite a few years! Don't stray to far from the forums. Enjoy your Fourth by the way!
 
Not really
This type of site exists with Responsibid.
