Good to know

Questions, answered

Will it email customers without my review?

Never. Every follow-up is saved as a Gmail Draft and surfaced in Slack. You click Send yourself — WebRun never emails a customer on its own.

How does it know a quote is unanswered?

It reads the Estimate status in Housecall Pro. If it is still Open and the sent date is more than two days ago, it qualifies for a follow-up.

Can I change the two-day threshold?

Yes. You set the wait period in the plan — some businesses prefer 24 hours, others three days. Change it to match your sales cadence.

Put this on autopilot.

Turn it on in minutes — or have our team set it up for you.
