SiteOne Landscape Supply launched an estimate tool designed to help contractors quickly and easily present customized, professional proposals to customers and win business without requiring separate software or subscriptions.
“We know that many landscape operators use pen and paper to quickly sketch out estimates, so we are excited to make things easier for them by reducing the time it takes to create an estimate—and present it professionally,” said John Wells, SiteOne director of product management. “The estimate tool enables contractors to produce a personalized document with their own logo and up-to-date supplier pricing.”
SiteOne account holders can use the free estimate tool by building an item list on SiteOne.com, either using “add to list” or by uploading a list in Excel format.
Once a list is created, the account holder may convert the list to an estimate, add a markup and customization and then download the estimate as a PDF. The estimate tool includes a free-form field so contractors can add items that are not available on SiteOne.com, such as labor and permits.
Account holders can reference SiteOne’s estimate tool explainer video as a resource and step-by-step guide to learn how to use the new feature. Contractors can contact their local branch or SiteOne to enable online access and take advantage of SiteOne’s business management solutions.
