Form or call is acknowledged instantly, and the intake asks project-specific questions: panel age, amperage if known, photo of the panel and install location.

Why electrical leads are different
Electrical inquiries can range from a small repair to a complex service upgrade, solar connection, or battery project. Treating them identically can send the wrong technician or leave a larger estimate waiting behind routine calls.
A scoped intake can collect project type, home age, and optional photos of the panel or proposed installation area before a callback. The electrician still verifies the site, code requirements, permitting, and final scope.
Example Response Flow
One practical path from inquiry to consultation.
The lead arrives scoped and tagged by project type — service call, panel upgrade, EV charger, generator — and routed to the right estimator.
Qualified project leads book a consult or site visit directly onto the estimator's calendar.
Pre-visit text confirms the appointment and collects anything still missing, so the estimator walks in ready to quote.
Sent quotes get a follow-up sequence — because high-ticket electrical quotes are exactly the ones homeowners sit on for a week.
Timing is illustrative, not a performance guarantee. Automated calls and texts must be configured around appropriate consent, sender identification, revocation, and opt-out handling.Review the FCC guidance.
Illustrative Scenario
How an EV charger install turns into a ghosted quote
- A homeowner buys an EV and submits your quote form on Sunday night: "Need a Level 2 charger installed."
- Monday is chaos; the form sits. Tuesday someone calls back and gets voicemail. They trade missed calls for two days.
- Finally connected, the office asks the scoping questions — panel capacity, garage location — that a form could have collected on Sunday.
- The visit gets scheduled for the following week. The quote goes out. Nobody follows up.
- Three weeks later the homeowner's charger is installed — by the electrician their dealership recommended, who answered the same day.
Qualification

- Generator estimates
Common conversion leaks
- Unclear project scope
- Missed quote requests
- Slow scheduling for high-value installs
What the install is designed to improve
- Cleaner estimate pipeline
- More high-ticket consultations
- Better technician preparation

FAQ
What electrical owners ask us.
Half our inquiries are too small to be worth an estimator visit. Does this help?
Yes — that's the scoping problem. Intake collects project type and photos up front, so small repairs can be priced or scheduled without a visit and estimator windshield time goes to panel upgrades, chargers, and generators.
Panel photos would genuinely change how we quote. Can the system get them?
It can request a photo of the panel and installation area as an optional intake step. The image supports preparation but does not replace an electrician's on-site assessment.
We're booked out three weeks. Why do we need faster response?
Booked out means every mishandled lead is a high-value one. Fast, scoped intake ensures the leads you do take are the right jobs — and follow-up keeps quoted projects warm while they wait for your calendar.
Does it handle generator maintenance plans?
Recurring work fits the same system: install customers get scheduled maintenance reminders automatically, which turns one-time generator installs into an annual service book.
