Sound familiar?

Good estimates go quiet. Every week.

01

You send the estimate.

The price is right, the customer liked you on site.

02

"Let me think about it."

Then nothing. No yes, no no.

03

Nobody follows up.

You're on the next job. The estimate goes quiet, and you never find out why.

How the pilot works

Three steps. You stay in control.

01

Copy us on your estimates.

Add pilot@pvolabs.com in BCC when you send an estimate, or just send us a list. Nothing else changes in how you work.

02

Approve the messages.

You read and approve the follow-up emails first. Nothing goes out before you say OK.

03

We follow up. You get the replies.

Polite follow-ups by email, in your company's name. Customer replies go straight to your inbox. Every Monday, one click tells us who replied, signed or said no.

Who is behind PVO Labs

I'm Pierre Martel. I build every PVO Labs system myself.

For almost 14 years, I ran my own industrial cleaning and renovation business.

Estimates I never followed up on. Invoices chased weeks too late. Evenings and weekends lost to paperwork instead of time with my kids and my wife. It cost me a lot of money, and time I won't get back.

What slipped through my fingers shouldn't slip through yours.

So PVO Labs builds simple systems that do the follow-up for you. I left France and moved closer to my clients in the US, so I work on your hours.

  • I set up every pilot myself
  • You email me, I answer
  • No sales call, no long contract

Questions owners ask first

Fair questions. Short answers.

The questions contractors ask us most, answered the way Pierre would by text.

Still wondering? Email Pierre or read the full FAQ.

So my customers think the email comes from me?

Yes. Your business name is on every email. When they hit reply, it lands in your inbox, not ours.

What do I actually have to do?

Copy pilot@pvolabs.com in BCC when you send an estimate (or just send us a list), approve the messages, and click one button on Mondays. That's it.

Will you bug my customers with 10 emails?

No. A few polite follow-ups, spaced out, and you approve every one before it goes out. Once a customer answers, one click stops the follow-ups.

What happens to my customer list?

We only use names, emails and estimate details to send your follow-ups. We never sell or share them.

Free for 30 days? What's the catch?

No catch. We're new, and we want real results and honest reviews before we charge anyone. Nothing is charged automatically: at the end, you decide.

Do I have to get on a sales call?

Nope. No calls, no demos. Everything happens by email, and applying takes about a minute.

Free for 30 days. 5 spots.

We follow up on up to 20 of your open estimates, in your company's name. No call needed.
