My bot sent 100 follow ups to stalled customers. One became a $2,000 sale.

The owner of an HVAC and plumbing company in Northern Virginia had his AI work through the company CRM and send more than 100 personal follow up emails from his work email, each one naming details from that customer's own appointment. Replies came in the same day. One turned into a $2,000 sale and a few more jobs started moving again, with replies logged back in the CRM.

How it works

  1. Bot reads the CRM for customers quoted in the last 90 days who have not booked or paid
  2. Writes a personal follow up for each one naming their appointment details
  3. Owner approves samples
  4. Bot sends from his work email in batches
  5. Replies logged back in the CRM

Why it’s worth knowing

It did not send one blast email. It wrote a separate note for each stalled customer using what was actually done and quoted at their own appointment, and one of those notes closed a $2,000 job the same day.
