Template library

Each page gives a free sample and a clear path to a custom version. The paid sequence is for one business, one service, one lead source, one tone, one concern, and one next step.

Before and after examples

Use this page to compare weak follow-up messages with clearer versions before ordering a custom sequence.

Open examples

Starter follow-up sample

Day 0: Hi [Name], thanks for reaching out about [service]. I can help with that. Do you want the fastest available time, or should I answer one quick question first? Day 1: Hi [Name], just checking if you still need help with [service]. If price, timing, or fit is the main question, reply with that and I will answer it first. Day 3: Hi [Name], should I close the loop for now? If you still want help, reply "yes" and I will send the next step.

When the $5 custom version is a better fit

The free sample is too generic

A real lead often has a specific source, service, concern, and next step. The custom version uses those details so the message sounds usable rather than copied.

The lead value is higher than $5

For estimates, appointments, repairs, consultations, and local-service jobs, one recovered inquiry can be worth far more than a small follow-up sequence.

You need the whole sequence

The paid custom sequence includes Day 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 messages, plus no-show recovery and price-objection replies for one business.

How the order handoff works

Choose the closest template

Start from the page that matches the lead situation. If none is exact, use the free preview builder or AI agent order path to create a clean PayPal note.

Pay exactly $5

Payment goes through PayPal.Me. For the digital kit, use the note "Lead Follow-Up Kit." For a custom sequence, paste the generated custom note.

Fulfillment waits for proof

The ZIP or custom writing is not marked delivered until the seller can see the $5 PayPal transaction. The order form can be used after payment for a structured trail.
