Automated PeoplePerHour Proposal Follow-Up

Every Monday, WebRun opens PeoplePerHour, lists the proposals you have sent that are still awaiting a client reply, sorts them by how long they have been silent and how big the job is, posts the chase list to Slack, and mirrors a short version to your Microsoft Teams channel.

In short

How do I follow up on PeoplePerHour proposals that got no reply?

WebRun opens PeoplePerHour every Monday and lists the proposals you sent that clients have not answered. It ranks them by quoted value and days of silence, posts the chase list to Slack, and mirrors a short summary to Microsoft Teams, so no promising job quietly goes cold.

  • Silent proposals get chased while the job is still open
  • The biggest quotes sit at the top of Monday's list
  • Declined and awarded jobs drop off the list automatically

Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it message clients on PeoplePerHour for me?

No. WebRun only posts an internal list to Slack and Teams. Every client follow-up is written and sent by a human, so nothing goes out in your name unreviewed.

How does it decide what to chase first?

It ranks by quoted value first, then by how many days the proposal has been silent, so the biggest jobs going cold sit at the top of Monday's list.

What about proposals the client already declined?

They are skipped. WebRun reads the live status of each proposal in PeoplePerHour every Monday, so declined and awarded jobs drop off the list on their own.

Put this on autopilot.
