What they did
Can a bot revive stalled quotes for a home-services company? The owner of an HVAC and plumbing company in Northern Virginia had Grok Bot send 100+ personalized follow-up emails from his work email, running it all from his phone in minutes. For each one it pulled the customer from the company's CRM, mentioned details from their actual appointment and asked where things stood. Replies came in the same day: one turned into a $2,000 sale, and a few more jobs started moving again.
How it went
Personal follow-ups to every stalled customer, with replies logged back in the CRM.
Worth knowing
- The owner's own X post a few days in; the $2,000 sale is his figure. Sending 100+ emails at once can trip spam filters, so send in batches and only to existing customers.
