Online Quote Management with
Link2quotes
Link2quotes is your License to Sell!
Link2quotes offers a comprehensive online quoting system tailored for Act! users. With Link2quotes, crafting a polished quote is swift and straightforward. You can seamlessly integrate new customers, provide a variety of product and service choices, enhance your quotes with images and videos, and dispatch them from any device or computer with a simple click.
The process is incredibly user-friendly, with most new users able to send quotes in the first hour. Additionally, Link2quotes generates new opportunities within Act!, sets up automated follow-up tasks to finalize sales, notifies you when a prospect views the quote, sends timely reminders, and marks the Opportunity as closed once the transaction is complete. Plus, Link2quotes can handle immediate payment processing upon quote acceptance and can push the transaction details directly to QuickBooks Online.
Setting itself apart from other third-party add-ons, Link2quotes uniquely writes directly to the database via the Act! WebAPI, ensuring immediate and seamless integration.
With Link2quotes, you can:
- Create custom quotes and quote templates to match your brand and style, as well as product or service quote formats
- Schedule quote follow-ups to keep your sales pipeline on track
- Send automated quote reminders to ensure quotes stay top of mind
- Real-time visibility to see when prospects view quotes and schedule your follow-ups accordingly
- Process secure payments upon quote acceptance to simplify the sales process and increase conversion
- Track accepted quotes against goals to monitor progress toward achieving sales targets
- Process quotes in multiple currencies and automatically calculate foreign exchange when applicable
And the best part is you can use Link2quotes from anywhere - a PC, Tablet, or even a Mac because everything is online, with no need to have Act! locally installed.
The quote templates are completely customizable and responsive, and can be sent to the prospect right from the console.
- If you're using the Act! Windows client, we provide you a free plugin that creates a Link2quotes button in the Opportunity details section, that you can click to either create a new quote or edit an existing one.
When your customer receives the quote, they can view it online, print it, or download as a PDF. Most importantly, though, these quotes can be accepted online. And an accepted quote automatically alerts you by email, and closes the Opportunity, as won.
Whether the quote gets accepted right away or not, every customer engagement with the quote is written back to the Opportunity History, so you have a detailed audit trail of each prospect's level of interest, allowing you to plan your follow-ups accordingly.
