The real problem

Your contact form
is losing you jobs.

You're spending money on ads and SEO to drive traffic. But when someone lands on your site, a basic contact form is the only thing standing between you and the sale.

It doesn't qualify. It doesn't filter. It doesn't follow up. It just dumps names in your inbox and makes you do all the work.

Monday morning. You've got 11 form submissions from the weekend.

Three are serious. Eight are tyre-kickers, wrong-job-size, or just price-shopping.

You have no idea which is which — so you quote them all. That's a week of wasted time.

Visitors who leave silently

97%

97% of your visitors leave without telling you what they need. A price estimator gives them a reason to stay — and self-qualify.

Form leads that waste your time

60%

More than half your form enquiries are tyre-kickers or wrong-fit jobs. ShortStack scores and filters them before they reach you.

Minutes before they call your competitor

5min

The first to respond wins the job. ShortStack alerts you the second a hot lead comes in — so you're always first cab off the rank.

How ShortStack works

First enquiry.
Won job.

Your estimator captures what the job actually is. ShortStack scores it, ranks it, and puts the right leads in front of you first — so you spend time on jobs worth chasing, not ones that go nowhere.

01

Capture

Price estimator replaces your contact form

Customers answer job-specific questions and get an instant price range. You get everything you need to qualify them — before you've picked up the phone.

02

Score

Every lead scored instantly

ShortStack scores each lead against your criteria the moment they submit — job type, budget, location, timeline. Hot leads surface immediately. Time-wasters don't.

03

Pipeline

Call the right lead first

Every lead lands in your pipeline ranked and ready. Open the app — or Telegram — and you know exactly who to call, what they need, and what they're likely to spend.

04

Convert

Alert hits before they call your competitor

The second a hot lead comes in, you're notified — with their name, job type, estimated value, and score. First to respond wins the job. ShortStack makes sure that's you.

Email — Customer

Inbox
Your unfair advantage

Your whole
back-office.
One thread.

You're on the tools all day. You're not opening a CRM. You're not sitting at a laptop.

ShortStack's Telegram bot means your entire pipeline runs from the same app you already use — check leads, update jobs, send quotes, add notes, get AI lead summaries. Voice note when your hands are full.

Your entire pipeline, managed from a text thread. While you're standing on a roof.

2:14pm, job site. A hot lead just came in — multi-room heat pump, $8,000–$22,000. You voice note the bot: "Mark Charlotte Wilson as contacted, add a note that I called and left a voicemail." Done. Back to work. No dashboard, no laptop, no admin piling up for Friday night.

What the bot can do

Your dashboard. In a text message.

Anything you can do in the ShortStack dashboard, you can do from Telegram. Type it naturally or send a voice note — the bot understands both.

Voice notes → actions

Send deposit requests and quotes
Fire off a deposit request or resend a quote email to any lead — straight from the chat. No login required.
AI lead summaries on demand
Ask for a summary of any lead and get an instant AI overview — their intent, concerns, suggested next steps, and key details. Everything you need before you call.
Instant lead alerts
Hot leads ping you the moment they come in — with job type, estimated quote, and contact details. No checking required.

FAQ

Common questions

Will my customers actually fill this in?

Yes — because it promises them something. Customers fill it in because they get a price range at the end. It's in their interest, not just yours. Completion rates are significantly higher than a standard contact form.

Does this work for my trade?

If you quote jobs, yes. ShortStack works for any trade that qualifies leads before sending someone out — heat pumps, solar, roofing, pool building, electrical, landscaping, and more.

How long does setup take?

Most businesses are live within 48 hours. We build the estimator for you — you answer questions about your business, review what we build, and approve it before it goes live.

Do I need to be tech-savvy?

No. You add one link to your website. We handle everything else. If you can copy and paste a URL, you're set.

What happens to my existing contact form?

Replace it with your ShortStack estimator link. One entry point, every lead qualified. No more unscreened submissions landing in your inbox at 11pm on a Sunday.

Can I run this from my phone?

That's the whole point. Your full pipeline runs from Telegram. Check leads, update statuses, send deposit requests, chase payments — while you're on the tools. No laptop required.

Ready to start?

Every missed lead is
money in a competitor's pocket.

Most trade businesses are losing real jobs every week to a generic contact form. ShortStack fixes that on day one.
