Follow-up messages for videographers
A lead asked for a quote on a promo video and stopped replying. You don’t want to seem desperate, but you also don’t want to lose the work. Here are three messages that work for that exact situation — copy them, change the name, send.
Quote sent, silence
Hi [Name] — no pressure on the quote. Quick question so I'm not guessing: is it the number, or is the campaign timing still moving? Both are easy to work around if I know which.
They want more for less
I can get closer to that, but I'd rather be straight about what changes: fewer shoot days means less coverage, not the same video for less. Want me to show you a one-day version so you can compare properly?
Project shelved
Hi [Name] — is the video still on for this quarter, or has it moved? If it's moved, tell me roughly when and I'll come back then rather than keep checking in.
How should videographers follow up on a quote?
Separate the two things clients conflate: the day rate and the scope. Most people who say a video quote is too high are comparing it to a number they invented, not to another quote. Showing a smaller version with fewer shoot days makes the price legible and usually converts better than a discount.
