# Quotes chased, orders confirmed, invoices acknowledged

LedgerBPO's quote follow-up call service closes the loop on three moments businesses skip: following up open quotes, confirming orders before work starts, and confirming invoice delivery so the due date holds. A named agent makes the calls in your company name, logs outcomes in QuickBooks Online, Xero or your CRM, and hands warm leads and disputes to the right person.

## What is a quote follow-up call service?

A quote follow-up call service contacts customers after a quote is sent to answer questions, confirm the decision and record why it was won or lost. Extended across the order-to-cash cycle, it also confirms order details before fulfillment and confirms that invoices arrived with the right PO and contact, removing the most common reason invoices are paid late.

## Who it is for

### Trades and field-service businesses

You send quotes every day and hear back from half of them. A polite follow-up call within a few days finds the answer and the objection.

### Manufacturers, wholesalers and distributors

Order errors and undelivered invoices are the reasons customers pay late. Confirmation calls catch the wrong PO, quantity or ship-to before they become disputes.

### Agencies and professional services

Proposals sit unanswered while the pipeline looks full. A follow-up cadence keeps the forecast honest and hands warm replies to the account lead.

## What's included

- Quote follow-up calls on an agreed cadence after each quote is sent
- Questions answered from the quote and your price list; objections logged
- Won, lost and pending status recorded with reason codes
- Order confirmation calls checking items, quantities, PO and ship-to
- Invoice delivery confirmation to the right AP contact with PO reference
- Wrong-contact and bounced-email invoices re-sent during the call
- Warm replies handed to your sales lead with notes the same day
- Email and SMS follow-ups between calls from approved templates
- Outcomes posted to your CRM and accounting software
- Weekly pipeline note: quotes followed, decided, pending and reasons
- Monthly quote-to-order and invoice-acknowledgment reporting
- Backup agent so the cadence holds through leave

## Deliverables and KPIs

| Deliverable | KPI we report | Cadence |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Quote follow-up cadence | Quotes followed up within the agreed window, reported weekly | Weekly |
| Quote outcome log | Won, lost and pending with reason code and next date | Per quote |
| Order confirmation record | Orders confirmed with PO, quantity and ship-to before fulfillment | Per order |
| Invoice acknowledgment log | Invoices confirmed received by the AP contact, with corrections made | Per invoice |
| Quote-to-order report | Quote-to-order rate and lost reasons, reported monthly | Monthly |
| Sales hand-off list | Warm replies passed to sales with call notes the same day | Daily |

KPIs are what we measure and report, agreed per engagement. Service-level commitments are set in your agreement.

## How it works

1. ### Discovery call
We review your quoting tool, order process, invoice delivery method and CRM, and pick which of the three call types matter most. We agree the cadence and who receives sales hand-offs.
2. ### Scripts and hand-off rules
We write the quote follow-up, order confirmation and invoice acknowledgment scripts in your voice, agree the questions the agent may answer, and set up templates for email and SMS follow-ups.
3. ### Dedicated agent starts the cadence
A named agent works each day's list from your quoting, order and invoicing systems, logs outcomes and reasons, and hands warm replies to sales within the day.
4. ### Weekly pipeline review
You receive the pipeline note and hand-off list weekly, and the quote-to-order and acknowledgment report monthly. Lost reasons feed your pricing and proposal changes.

Our BillingLine process

Follow-up calls run on our BillingLine desk with three script sets and a cadence per quote, order and invoice. Each contact ends with a status, a reason code and a next date, so the pipeline note and the invoice acknowledgment log build themselves from the call record.

## How much does quote and invoice follow-up cost?

Quote and invoice follow-up is priced per dedicated agent, full-time or part-time in your hours, or per call and per minute on the shared BillingLine desk for lower quote volumes. Businesses that want confirmation calls and invoicing handled together choose an agent plus accountant pair. Pricing depends on volume and scope, so we send a custom quote within 1 business day.

### What moves the quote

- Quotes, orders and invoices issued per month
- Cadence depth per quote before it is closed as lost
- Number of systems the agent works in, such as CRM plus accounting
- Whether the pair also raises invoices and applies receipts

## Frequently asked questions

### How much does a quote follow-up call service cost?

Quote and invoice follow-up is priced per dedicated agent (full- or part-time in your hours), per call or minute on the shared BillingLine desk, or as an agent plus accountant pair. Monthly quote and invoice volume and the cadence depth move the quote. Pricing depends on volume and scope, so we send a custom quote within 1 business day.

### Is this a sales call or a billing call?

It sits between the two. The agent asks whether the quote answered the customer's need, records questions and objections, and hands anything that needs a price change or a negotiation to your sales lead. The agent does not discount, negotiate or close; that remains your team's job.

### Why confirm invoice delivery?

Because the most common reason an invoice is late is that it never reached the right person, or reached them without a PO number. A short call to the AP contact confirms receipt, the PO and the due date, and fixes the contact record if it was wrong. Our accounts receivable outsourcing picks up from there.

### What does the quote follow-up cadence look like?

A typical cadence is a call two to three business days after the quote, an email a few days later, and a final call before the quote expires. The timing, number of touches and the point at which a quote is closed as lost are set with you and reviewed monthly.

### Which calling rules apply?

All calls are first-party under your brand. We are not a debt collection agency and never act as a third-party collector, and quote calls are not about balances at all. Scripts are TCPA- and FDCPA-aware in the US, follow PECR and Ofcom rules in the UK, ACMA in Australia and CRTC in Canada, with call-time windows, opt-outs and recording consent honored. Healthcare clients get HIPAA-trained agents under a BAA for any patient contact.

### Where do the results go?

Quote and order outcomes are written to your CRM and the quote or estimate record in QuickBooks Online, Xero or your quoting tool. Invoice acknowledgments are noted on the invoice. You see everything in your own systems, and a weekly pipeline note summarizes it.

### Can the agent take a deposit on an order confirmation call?

The agent can send your payment link or guide the customer into your portal and confirm the deposit posted. Agents never see or store card numbers. The order is marked confirmed with deposit received on the record. If the deposit fails, the order stays pending and your team is told the same day.

### Can the same team send the invoices?

Yes. With the agent plus accountant pair, the accountant raises invoices from confirmed orders and the agent confirms delivery and follows up. Our invoicing and billing service describes the invoicing side, and cash application closes the loop when payment arrives.
