Write a polite quote follow-up email
You get a short, polite email that nudges a customer who has not answered your quote. It takes about 5 minutes with the free version of Claude. You fill in the customer name, the quote, and the date, paste one prompt, and read the draft out loud before sending.
Draft: we have not tested this recipe yet. Treat the steps as a starting point.
What you need
- A free Claude account
- Customer name, what you quoted, and the date you sent it
Copy this prompt
Write a short, polite follow-up email (under 90 words) to a customer who has not replied to my quote. Business: [type of business]. Quote was for: [what]. Sent on: [date]. Their name: [name]. Tone: friendly and direct, no pressure, no fake urgency. End with one clear question they can answer with yes or no.
Steps
- Fill in the brackets and paste the prompt.
- Read the draft out loud. Cut anything you would not say.
- Send it from your own email.
Check this yourself
- The quote amount and date are correct.
- There is no pressure or deadline you did not choose.
- You are happy to send it under your own name.
Mistakes and limits
- AI may add pressure or a deadline you did not choose.
- It does not know your price or terms. Check every number.
Variations
- Ask for a version that offers a quick phone call.
- Ask for a second, shorter follow-up to send a week later.
