# Sending a quote

Winning work · Web and mobile · 2 min read · updated August 13, 2026

**Each quote gets a private link you can email, text or hand over as a PDF; the moment the customer views, accepts or declines it, the status changes and your team is emailed.**

A quote that is finished is not a quote that has been sent. Here is every way
out of the app, and what each one does.

![The quotes list, showing status, total and the actions available on each quote](/images/docs/quotes-list.webp)

## The link

Every quote gets a **private share link** only your customer can open. It opens
instantly on any device and works without JavaScript, which matters more than it
sounds — the person reading it is on a phone, on a train, on whatever browser
came with the device.

If a link gets somewhere it should not, regenerate it. The old one stops working
immediately.

## Email

Send the quote by email with a personal note. On a connected mailbox it leaves
from **your own address**, so the customer's reply lands in the inbox you
already watch rather than in a no-reply void — see
[Your own mailbox and calendar](/docs/your-own-mailbox-and-calendar).

## Text

Customers who have opted in can be texted the quote. The quote number, the total
and the link always arrive intact; if your note runs long it is trimmed **and
you are told**, rather than silently cut off mid-sentence. Consent, quiet hours
and what happens on a STOP reply are covered in
[Text messages and consent](/docs/text-messages-and-consent).

## PDF

For customers who want paper, any quote produces a polished PDF with your
company details and logo on it, generated in the cloud.

## In the customer's language

Quote pages, PDFs, emails, texts and the customer portal are all written in
English or Spanish, whichever your company is set to. **A quote keeps the
language it was written in, forever** — so changing your company language later
never rewrites something a customer has already been sent.

## What happens next

The moment a customer views, accepts or declines, the quote's status changes and
your team is emailed. No more "did you get my email?" calls.

- Accepting is covered in
  [Online acceptance and signatures](/docs/online-acceptance-and-signatures).
- Chasing the ones that go quiet is
  [Follow-ups and expiry](/docs/follow-ups-and-expiry).
- An accepted quote becomes work in [Scheduling a visit](/docs/scheduling-a-visit).
