Enquiry-to-quote workflow

Move a buyer enquiry from first message to a decision-ready quote.

Connect the WhatsApp or email enquiry to the customer, opportunity, reviewed offer, current quote, and follow-up—so the buyer gets a coherent answer and the team can see what must happen next.

Where enquiry-to-quote breaks

The buyer asked for a price. The team is still assembling the story.

A buyer requests a bulk-order quote on WhatsApp. One teammate knows the relationship, another owns the price exception, and the latest offer sits in a document without a connected follow-up. This is an illustrative scenario—not customer proof.

  • The buyer receives questions the team could have answered from existing context.
  • The pipeline, offer, and latest quote can describe different commercial states.
  • A sent quote looks complete even when nobody owns the buyer's response.

Five decisions from enquiry to quote

Build the commercial answer from the conversation outward.

Each stage produces evidence the next stage can use. The workflow ends when the quote has a responsible next action—not simply when a document is sent.

  1. 01

    Own the enquiry

    Inbox
    You do

    Route the WhatsApp, email or website-form enquiry to the sales team and assign it.

    WRKZY keeps visible

    Keep channel, queue, priority, response timing, owner, and next action beside the conversation.

    Outcome

    The buyer has a responsible contact before qualification begins.

  2. 02

    Qualify with customer context

    Customer context
    You do

    Review the contact, company, recent activity, and open commercial work.

    WRKZY keeps visible

    Use the customer record to connect the message to current relationship evidence.

    Outcome

    The rep can clarify the real need without asking the buyer to repeat known facts.

  3. 03

    Represent the decision as an opportunity

    Pipelines
    You do

    Create or update the deal, stage, value, owner, close timing, and next task.

    WRKZY keeps visible

    Keep the pipeline state grounded in the buyer's current evidence and commitment.

    Outcome

    The team can see what is qualified and what still blocks a proposal.

  4. 04

    Assemble the reviewed offer

    Catalog
    You do

    Select current products or services, quantities, prices, currency, and terms.

    WRKZY keeps visible

    Reuse reviewed catalog records and make any customer-specific decision explicit.

    Outcome

    The quote starts from a shared commercial source instead of a copied price list.

  5. 05

    Review and publish the current quote

    Quotes
    You do

    Confirm the recipient, scope, totals, terms, validity, current revision, and responsible follow-up.

    WRKZY keeps visible

    Keep the quote's readiness, recipient, current revision, and next sales action visible before and after publication.

    Outcome

    The buyer receives a current offer and sales retains the return path for the decision.

Product evidence and operating model

Current WRKZY captures show the conversation, pipeline, and quote preparation views. Illustrative models explain how those records should connect; they are not presented as additional product screens.

01

Customer signal

Start the quote from the buyer's live request.

The active conversation shows who asked, which channel they used, the current owner, urgency, timing, and the next action. Relationship context can then inform the response.

      What improves

      The team can answer four questions before the buyer has to chase.

      These are operating signals to inspect in WRKZY—not invented performance claims.

      01Ownership

      Who is answering the enquiry?

      Assignment and response timing make unowned or overdue conversations visible.

      02Qualification

      What decision is the buyer making?

      Customer and opportunity context explain why the deal is in its current stage.

      03Commercial control

      Which offer is current?

      Reviewed inputs and one quote revision reduce ambiguity about scope and terms.

      04Follow-through

      Who follows the current quote?

      The responsible next action remains visible when the current revision is published.

      When the quote is ready for the next decision

      Give the commercial reviewer a quote they can inspect without reconstruction.

      Before publication, sales can keep the latest buyer request, opportunity evidence, reviewed inputs, current quote state, responsible owner, and next action visible. The Sales solution continues from the quote into buyer decision and post-decision handoff.
