Follow up every estimate without writing an email

Estimates go quiet when nobody has time to follow up. Paidnice reminds every customer on time and makes it easy to say yes.

Customers accept or decline online, from the reminder

Each reminder links to the estimate. Customers accept or decline it in the Paidnice portal, and the new status is written back to QuickBooks.

Reminders before the estimate expires

Remind customers a set number of days after the issue date or before the expiry date. Reminders stop as soon as the estimate is accepted or declined.

Every QuickBooks estimate, with its status from QuickBooks

The estimates list mirrors each estimate’s status in QuickBooks Online and syncs every hour, or on demand. Accepted and declined estimates get no more reminders.

Your team hears when a customer answers

When a customer accepts or declines in the portal, Paidnice emails the people on your team who asked to hear about it, so sales can act the same day.

See which estimate follow-up gets opened

Email performance covers your estimate emails too. See the open and click rate of each follow-up, so the wording that wins work gets used more.
