Automatic quote follow-ups for sheet metal shops
SeekMake sends follow-up emails to customers who got a quote but did not order, on the schedule you choose. You also see when a customer views a quote, so you call at the right moment.
Sheet metal quotes for enclosures or brackets are often part of a larger project, and buyers may wait on a design freeze or budget approval before they order. A quote that is sent and never mentioned again tends to be forgotten. Scheduled follow-ups keep your price in front of the buyer, and knowing when they reopen it tells you the project is moving.

FAQ
Questions shops ask before switching
Can I choose when follow-ups are sent?
Yes. You set the schedule and the wording of the follow-up emails.
How do I know a customer viewed a quote?
SeekMake shows when a quote is opened, so you can follow up at the right moment.
Can customers order from the follow-up email?
Yes. The email links back to the quote, where they can order and pay.
Is it worth following up small sheet metal quotes?
Small orders often lead to repeat or larger work once a design is approved. Automatic follow-ups take no time from your team, so even small quotes get a reminder.
Can follow-ups go out while my team is on the shop floor?
Yes. Emails go out on the schedule you set, so reminders are sent whether your team is at the press brake or away from the office.
Which files can customers upload?
STEP and DXF files. The part is checked and measured automatically when it is uploaded.
How much does SeekMake cost?
There is a free plan to start. Paid plans add more features, lower fees on online orders and priority support.
