A quick estimate
Multiply the average number of quotes per month by the average time to prepare and chase them. The total often surprises - especially if you include email ping-pong.
Opportunity cost

Where to act first
- Cut double entry from site to office.
- Automate PDF layout.
- Track statuses so follow-ups are not forgotten.
