Best Practices
Tips for This Form
- Ask the project stage. 'Approved drawings' leads are worth calling today; 'just an idea' leads need nurturing.
- Ask for photos of the existing space. They save a wasted site visit.
- Use budget bands. Clients rarely type a number, but they will pick a range.
- Book the site visit from the thank-you screen with preferred days.
