Funnel

The Renovation Sales Funnel, Explained: The Six Stages Between a WhatsApp Enquiry and a Paid Deposit

Questions

Our team is rarely at a desk — how does HotLead help?

It captures and assigns every enquiry automatically, so a lead that arrives mid-job still gets an owner and an acknowledgement. The follow-up reminders mean nothing waits until someone "has time".

Can we separate tender enquiries from direct project leads?

Yes. Leads are tagged by type and source, so tenders and direct homeowner jobs stay in clear, separate views instead of one messy chat.

Will customers have to change anything?

No. They keep messaging your WhatsApp. HotLead organises it for your team behind the scenes.

Does it send the quote for me?

No — your team still quotes and closes. HotLead makes sure the enquiry is owned fast and the follow-up after the quote actually happens.

How quickly can we get going?

We set it up and train your team, usually within days, with a full refund if you are not happy after a month.
