Automate Pricing Requests

To automate pricing requests is to use AI agents to calculate and deliver cost estimates to prospects instantly. Instead of making users wait 24-48 hours for a manual quote, an automated system uses your predefined pricing logic and product data to generate accurate, real-time responses and PDF quotations.

Why It Matters

Pricing is the #1 question every prospect has. In a "buy it now" culture, making a lead wait for a quote is the fastest way to lose them to a competitor. Automating this process captures high-intent leads at the moment of peak interest, significantly shortening your sales cycle.

How It Works

• Logic Mapping: You define your pricing tiers, variables, and multipliers in the system.
• Dynamic Questioning: The AI asks the user the necessary questions (e.g., "How many users?" or "Square footage?").
• Real-Time Calculation: The AI processes the inputs against your pricing rules.
• Instant Delivery: The quote is delivered via chat, email, or as a downloadable PDF instantly.

Key Benefits

• Speed to Lead: Beat every competitor by providing a quote in seconds.
• Reduced Sales Overhead: Free your sales team from calculating routine estimates.
• Higher Lead Quality: Filter out "window shoppers" based on budget alignment early.
• Standardized Pricing: Ensure every prospect receives a consistent, logic-based quote.

Use Cases

• Manufacturing: Estimating custom parts based on material and volume.
• Logistics: Providing instant freight or shipping quotes.
• Home Services: Giving ballpark figures for renovations or cleaning services.
• Professional Services: Quoting project fees for legal, accounting, or marketing audits.

Manual Quoting vs. Automated AI Quoting

Step-by-Step Guide: Implementing Automated Pricing

1. Define Your Rules: Write down your pricing formula and any "minimum" requirements.
2. Train the Agent: Upload your pricing sheet or service guide to Mavumium.
3. Build the Flow: Configure the AI to ask for the specific variables it needs to calculate the price.
4. Enable PDF Generation: Set up the "Instant Quote" feature to create branded documents.
5. Add to Site: Place the "Get a Quote" widget on your pricing and service pages.

Best Practices

• Be Transparent: If a project is too complex for an AI quote, have the AI explain why and offer a call.
• Collect Contact Info First: Ensure you capture the email before showing the final price.
• Follow Up: Automatically sync the quote to your CRM for a human follow-up 24 hours later.
