Optional extras: let clients upsell themselves on your quotes
The easiest sale in construction is the one the client makes to themselves. EstiMate quotes now support optional extras — upsells the client can add with a tap, right on the quote link.
How it works
- On any job, add extras: a bigger patio, upgraded bifold doors, extra sockets, a better finish — each with a title, description and price
- Optionally pre-tick the ones most clients say yes to
- On the quote page, the client ticks the extras they want and watches their total update live
- When they accept, their selections are locked in automatically as approved variations — the contract, the revised total and your reports all update with zero extra admin
Why it matters
Interactive quotes with selectable options are proven upsell mechanics — the biggest US platforms built entire businesses on them. Every extra your client adds is margin you didn''t have to negotiate for, agreed in writing before the job starts.
No more "while you''re here, could you also…" priced on the back of an envelope. It''s on the quote, it''s priced, it''s signed off.
