Why it's laid out this way

  • Reinstall lines at a renewal rate, since the lights are already bought
  • New add-ons priced as new, so the customer sees what changed
  • A 50% deposit early, because install weeks fill by fall
  • Clip-only install and outlet terms that prevent most December calls

Or build it by chat

In August, open your pipeline's Paid column for the past year and work down the list. For each house: "quote Dana Whitman: 160 ft roofline and 40 ft peaks at renewal rates, front maple, 24 new walkway lights, garland, takedown, 50% deposit". It builds the estimate and saves it on her file, next to last year's invoice.

There's no online approval page, so the yes comes back by phone or email, and the deposit invoice goes out on Solo. Then book the install and the January takedown on the calendar. More on Christmas light installation software and quotes and estimates.

Renew them before someone else knocks.

Redline is free to start. One message per house and the renewal quote's built.
