I presume you are talking about domestic?

If so pop round and see them... Say you were just passing and thought you would stop to follow up... Has always worked for me.

If they have givern you a phone number at the time of the quote i would say they are pretty genuine.

i always record these into a book then call back between 5 and 10 days later to see if they want to go ahead

it always helps if you know why they did not go ahead on the day  ie.. speaking to hubby/wife etc... this gives you a great 'in' with the phone call.

we don't offer any further discounts just because they dither on whether they want a windy or not.  - that's done on the day and only in rare occasions if i know i was heavy on price

as they were domestics they normally say yes or no when you give the quote . unless i was passing and had the time i,d say leave them.
