Put a number on the quotes that went quiet.
Every contractor has the same leak: work that was quoted, never answered, and never chased a second time. Set four numbers you already know and see what a year of it costs. If it does not clear what Standin costs, this page will tell you so.
Across every office, not just the busiest one.
Not the ones that said no. The ones nobody called back.
Keep this low. Five percent is hard to argue with.
That is 6 jobs a year that were already quoted, already priced, and already interested.
On follow-up alone, this does not pay for itself.
Do not buy a Digital Employee on this line item. Either there is a different pile of repeatable work worth $7,000 a month, or the workshop is the honest fit. Ask on the call and we will tell you which.
The arithmetic in full, so you can argue with it: quotes × 12 × quiet% × close% × job value. No industry benchmark is buried in there and nothing is weighted. Every assumption is a slider you set, and none of it is a promise from us.
About This Calculator
How is the number calculated?
Quotes per month × 12 × the share that go quiet × the share a second and third touch would close × average job value. That is the whole formula. No industry benchmark is buried in it and nothing is weighted, so every assumption is one you set.How is this different from the follow-up leak calculator?
This one measures a single line item: quoted work that went cold. It suits contractors and home services, where an owner can check the inputs against memory. The follow-up leak calculator is broader, covering labor hours spent on repeatable admin as well as slipped opportunities across the business.What should I put for the close rate?
Keep it low. Five percent is hard to argue with, and a number nobody can dispute is more useful in a decision than an optimistic one. If the math still clears at five percent, it clears.Does a good result mean I should buy a Digital Employee?
Not on its own. The calculator prices one leak. If it does not clear $84,000 a year, the tool says so and points you at the Live AI Workshop instead. Standin does not guarantee ROI; the number exists to make the conversation concrete.Go Deeper
