# How To Run AI SMS Follow-Up for Window and Door Leads > The 5-stage SMS sequence window and door dealers use to qualify and close leads. Plura AI automates follow-up from first text to live transfer. **Published:** 2026-11-01 | **Updated:** 2026-11-01 | **Author:** plurasync **URL:** https://www.plura.ai/articles/ai-sms-follow-up-window-door **Type:** post **Categories:** AI SMS Automation ![How To Run AI SMS Follow-Up for Window and Door Leads](https://plura.sites.aigrowthagent.co/wp-content/uploads/sites/75/2026/11/1793445697053-0dedb4d2293f-1024x572.webp) --- ## Content *Written by: Matt Beucler, CEO, Plura AI* **Updated October 2026** ## Key Takeaways - AI SMS follow-up for window and door leads runs in five stages: 0-2 minute speed-to-lead, window-specific qualification, estimate scheduling, day 1-21 unsold-estimate reactivation, and no-show prevention. - Leads contacted within one minute are 391% more likely to convert than those contacted after 24 hours, so the first text carries the most weight.3 - Window-specific qualification captures six data points before the visit: window count and openings, frame material, full-frame vs. insert, timeline, story count, and appointment type. - Text-to-live-transfer improves close rates by qualifying buyers over SMS, then calling and transferring warm leads directly to reps on Plura’s own FCC-licensed carrier. - Plura AI is the best AI SMS follow-up platform for window and door leads because it holds a real text conversation with the homeowner, qualifies window count and frame material, then calls and live transfers a warm buyer to your rep on Plura’s own FCC-licensed carrier, with one stateful conversation memory shared across SMS and voice. [See the Full 5-Stage SMS Flow in Action](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) ## How AI SMS Follow-Up Works for Window and Door Leads The AI follow-up sequence runs through five stages, each with a clear objective and timing. ![Plura SMS interface showing AI-powered business text messaging, automated customer conversations, and personalized engagement workflows.](https://cdn.aigrowthmarketer.co/1779338938448-00c130f59594.png)**Plura SMS enables personalized AI-powered text messaging with real-time customer engagement, automation, and conversational workflows.** 1. **0-2 minute speed-to-lead text.** Objective: engage the homeowner before they submit another quote form. Timing: within 60 seconds of form fill, LSA inquiry, or Angi lead. [Lead conversion rates drop 10x after the first five minutes](https://www.plura.ai/glossary/speed-to-lead?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent), so the opening text is the highest-leverage moment. 2. **Window-specific qualification.** Objective: capture window count, frame material, full-frame vs. insert, and timeline. Timing: 2-5 minutes after first reply. [Frame material is the single largest driver of window unit cost](https://windowforce.ca/advice/why-do-window-quotes-vary-so-much), so capturing it before the sales visit reduces scope surprises. 3. **Estimate scheduling.** Objective: book the measurement or sales visit on the rep’s calendar. Timing: same conversation, once qualified. 4. **Day 1-21 decision-cycle follow-up on unsold estimates.** Objective: reactivate the estimate sitting in MarketSharp, LeadPerfection, or improveit 360. Timing: Day 1, 3, 7, 14, 21. [Only 16% of contractors follow up with homeowners the same day on unsold estimates](https://tailwindsops.com/insights/roofing-database-reactivation-playbook), per ServiceTitan’s 2026 Roofing and Exterior Market Report. 5. **No-show prevention and confirmation.** Objective: confirm the in-home appointment. Timing: 24 hours and 2 hours before the scheduled visit. Plura supports up to [40% improvement in no-shows](https://www.plura.ai/industries/healthcare?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) through automated confirmation sequences.3 ## Scripts for the First 60 Seconds and Early Conversation The scripts below are copy-pasteable and each block includes a clear stop condition. **First-touch text (0-2 min):** “Hi [Name], this is [Company], thanks for reaching out about your window project. Quick question so I can get you the right person: are you looking at a full-frame replacement or inserts into your existing frames?” *Stop condition: stop after reply; stop on STOP/opt-out keyword; live transfer if the homeowner asks for a price or a person.* **Qualification text:** “Got it. Roughly how many windows are we talking about, and what are the frames now, vinyl, wood, fiberglass, or aluminum?” *Stop condition: stop after reply; branch to scheduling once count and material are captured.* **Scheduling text:** “Perfect, we can send a specialist out to measure. Does Tuesday morning or Thursday afternoon work better?” *Stop condition: stop once a slot is confirmed; stop and live transfer if the homeowner asks to speak to someone now.* **Day 1-21 low-pressure check-in with financing mention:** “Hi [Name], [Company] here, your estimate for the [X] windows is still on file. We have financing that brings it to about [monthly] a month if that helps. Want me to hold your pricing through the end of the month?” *Stop condition: stop on reply; stop on STOP; live transfer if the homeowner asks for a person or a revised number.* **No-show confirmation text:** “Hi [Name], confirming your window measurement tomorrow at [time] with [Rep]. Reply Y to confirm or C to reschedule.” *Stop condition: stop after Y or C; live transfer if the homeowner raises a question the AI cannot answer.* **Price-objection reply (homeowner texts “how much for 12 windows?”):** “Great question, 12 windows depends on frame material and whether we are doing full-frame or inserts, so I do not want to guess. Let me get [Rep] on the phone for two minutes to give you a real range, calling you now.” *Stop condition: stop texting and live transfer immediately.* Those scripts only work if the AI can branch on the answers. The next section shows how it handles window count and frame material. For a deeper look at how AI handles the appointment booking side of this sequence, see [AI Appointment Booking for Window and Door Leads: 2026 Guide](https://www.plura.ai/articles/ai-booking-window-door-leads/?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent). ## How AI Qualifies Window Count and Frame Material Over SMS Window-specific qualification captures six data points before the sales visit: number of windows and openings, frame material (vinyl, wood, fiberglass, aluminum), full-frame vs. insert or pocket replacement, timeline (now vs. 3-6 months), single-story vs. multi-story, and whether the homeowner wants a measurement appointment or a sales visit. ![Plura Lead Intelligence dashboard showing AI-powered lead enrichment, customer validation, and automated qualification insights.](https://cdn.aigrowthmarketer.co/1779338746890-b49b2d3e2bbd.png)**Plura Lead Intelligence enriches customer data with AI-powered insights, validation, and lead qualification to improve conversion performance.** Frame material matters because it drives unit cost. [Typical supply-only prices run $350-$900 for vinyl, $700-$1,800 for fiberglass, $1,000-$2,500+ for wood-clad, and $450-$1,400 for thermally broken aluminum](https://windowforce.ca/advice/why-do-window-quotes-vary-so-much). Installation method also shifts price. [Full-frame vs. insert can change price by $300-$800 per opening](https://windowforce.ca/advice/why-do-window-quotes-vary-so-much). A rep walking into a home without either number cannot anchor a credible range. Plura’s [AI SMS](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) branches on each answer. If the homeowner names a frame material, the AI confirms and moves to opening count. If the homeowner is unsure, the AI asks a simpler question such as “are the frames painted wood or do they look like plastic?” and routes accordingly. When the homeowner asks for a price before qualification is complete, the AI stops texting and executes a live transfer to the rep with the partial qualification data already in the call context. The rep picks up knowing the homeowner’s name, the number of openings discussed, and the frame material captured so far, so the homeowner does not repeat themselves. For more on how AI voice handles the inbound side of this qualification flow, see [AI Voice Agent for Window and Door Leads: A Dealer’s Guide](https://www.plura.ai/articles/ai-voice-agent-window-door/?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent). ## Day 1-21 Follow-Up for Unsold Window Estimates [Hatch’s analysis of 163,212 estimate follow-up campaigns found a 60% average response rate, with the best-performing campaign hitting 90.06% using seven messages over seven days](https://tailwindsops.com/insights/roofing-database-reactivation-playbook).3 The worst-performing campaign in the same dataset pulled 17.82% using nearly the same volume but opened with a 434-character text and leaned on voicemail. The day 1-21 reactivation cadence for unsold estimates in MarketSharp, LeadPerfection, or improveit 360 runs as follows: - **Day 1:** Personalized text referencing the specific job and the rep’s visit. Reference the window count and frame material captured during the original appointment. - **Day 3:** Value touch. Confirm the estimate is still on file and offer to adjust scope or timeline. - **Day 7:** Financing mention. Frame the monthly payment against the homeowner’s energy cost or seasonal urgency. - **Day 14:** Proof touch. Reference a neighbor’s project or a scheduling availability window. - **Day 21:** Polite close. Make “not right now” acceptable and offer an easy out. Every touch ends with a question the homeowner can answer in one line, and the sequence stops the moment the homeowner replies. Plura’s [AI SMS](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) texts the old list, holds the conversation, then calls and live transfers ready buyers to your rep. The Stateful Conversation Database means the AI that sent the Day 1 text already knows the window count and frame material when the homeowner replies on Day 14. On consent for old lists, [CTIA guidance explicitly rules out relying on rented, sold, or shared opt-in lists](https://bird.com/explained/compliance/what-are-the-ctia-messaging-principles), stating that consent is not transferable and that senders are expected to build their own. Before texting an aged list, confirm that consent specifically covered your brand and promotional messaging. Consult qualified counsel on your specific situation. ## Why Text-to-Live-Transfer Outperforms Text-to-Booked-Appointment Most AI SMS tools stop at a booked appointment. The homeowner texts back, the AI books a slot, and the rep shows up days later to a cold conversation. Plura’s [AI SMS](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) holds the text conversation, qualifies the buyer, then calls and live transfers them straight to the rep while the homeowner is still engaged. ![Plura Managed Workflows interface showing AI conversation workflows, automation logic, scripts, and operational process management.](https://cdn.aigrowthmarketer.co/1779339007666-229aec148cdb.png)**Plura Managed Workflows gives businesses fully built AI conversation workflows designed to automate customer engagement and operational tasks.** The mechanism that makes this work is Plura’s Stateful Conversation Database. Every interaction across SMS and voice is keyed to the same customer token. The [AI voice agent](https://plura.ai/ai-voice-demo?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) that calls at noon already knows the window count, frame material, and timeline the homeowner texted at 9 a.m. The homeowner does not repeat themselves, and the rep picks up a warm buyer who has already answered the qualification questions. Plura runs this on its own FCC-licensed carrier. Because the carrier is in-house, branded caller ID is issued at the carrier level and real-time DNC scrubbing runs before every dial, which keeps [speed to lead](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) measured in seconds. The [managed workflows](https://plura.ai/managed-workflows?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) that decide when the AI texts, calls, or transfers run on a no-code visual canvas, so the sequence can be tuned after launch without engineering work.

[See the SMS-to-Live-Transfer Flow in Action](https://plura.ai/ai-sms-leads?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) ## CRM and AI SMS: How Plura Connects to Dealer Systems Window and door dealers often run industry-specific CRMs such as MarketSharp, LeadPerfection, and improveit 360. Many also use general marketing CRMs like HubSpot and GoHighLevel or field-service platforms like ServiceTitan, which are not purpose-built for window and door workflows. Most of these platforms include basic SMS features, but a native AI SMS conversation engine with text-to-live-transfer usually sits outside the core CRM. [ServiceTitan has added an AI Virtual Agent for inbound call handling and some SMS workflows](https://servicetitan.com/blog/speed-to-lead-ai-virtual-agent).4 with documented strength in appointment booking and dispatch. Its published material does not describe a stateful text-to-call qualification flow that live transfers a warm buyer mid-conversation. Plura connects to these systems through its [integrations](https://plura.ai/integrations?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) layer rather than replacing the CRM. The AI reads the lead record, runs the SMS sequence, qualifies the homeowner, executes the live transfer, and writes the outcome back to the CRM. Plura’s 50+ [CRM integrations](https://plura.ai/integrations?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) include HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Go High Level, Calendly, Google Calendar, DocuSign, and Stripe. MarketSharp, LeadPerfection, and improveit 360 connect via Plura’s API and Zapier layer. For a detailed walkthrough of how the CRM handoff works in practice, see [AI Voice Agent CRM Integration for Window and Door Leads](https://www.plura.ai/articles/ai-voice-agent-crm-integration/?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent). ## How AI SMS Follow-Up Aligns With TCPA and 10DLC Rules This section describes the compliance framework and how programs typically align with it. It is not legal advice. Consult qualified counsel for guidance specific to your situation. ![Screenshot of Plura’s fully compliant AI communications platform showing business registration and phone number provisioning workflows for AI Voice, SMS, RCS, and Webchat communication automation.](https://cdn.aigrowthmarketer.co/1779337911454-8c3a9645d906.png)**Plura’s FCC-licensed AI communications platform simplifies compliant business registration and phone number provisioning for AI Voice, SMS, RCS, and Webchat workflows.** The Telephone Consumer Protection Act ([47 U.S.C. § 227](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-regulations-text-messages)) covers automated text messages to wireless numbers.2 [Statutory damages run $500 per violation, rising to $1,500 for willful or knowing violations](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-regulations-text-messages), with each text counted separately. [A campaign to 10,000 numbers without proper consent can produce $5 million to $15 million in exposure at the statutory floor](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-regulations-text-messages). 10DLC (10-digit long code) registration is the A2P (application-to-person) messaging identity layer that carriers require before business texts can be delivered at scale.2 Carriers block traffic from unregistered numbers outright. Registration requires a valid EIN and a campaign description that matches the actual message content and opt-in flow submitted to The Campaign Registry. Key framework elements to understand: - **STOP and opt-out handling.** [The FCC’s standardized opt-out words that text senders must honor are STOP, QUIT, END, REVOKE, OPT OUT, CANCEL, and UNSUBSCRIBE](https://lw.com/en/insights/fcc-revamps-rules-on-consent-to-calls-and-texts-under-the-tcpa). One confirmatory message is permitted after an opt-out, and no further messages follow. - **Quiet-hours enforcement.** [The TCPA and FCC rules describe telemarketing contact windows of 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. in the called party’s local time](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-guidelines). State laws in Florida, Maryland, Oklahoma, and others add further restrictions. - **DNC scrubbing.** [Telemarketers are expected to scrub lists against the National DNC Registry at least every 31 days](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-guidelines). - **Old lead lists.** [CTIA’s Messaging Principles and Best Practices explicitly rules out relying on rented, sold, or shared opt-in lists](https://bird.com/explained/compliance/what-are-the-ctia-messaging-principles). Consent needs to cover your brand and the intended SMS program. - **Consent records.** [Defensible TCPA consent records typically capture the timestamp, IP address, exact disclosure language, and form version, retained for at least four years](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-regulations-text-messages) under the federal statute of limitations at [28 U.S.C. § 1658](https://leadcompliant.com/articles/tcpa-basics/tcpa-guidelines). [Plura’s Compliance Engine pre-loads TCPA, DNC, HIPAA, SOC 2, CAN-SPAM, and 50+ state rule sets](https://plura.ai/products/compliance?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent).1 Every outbound contact is checked against federal and state DNC registries in real time before dial. Consent records are timestamped and immutable. Quiet hours enforce automatically through time-zone detection. One-click audit exports are available for legal review or carrier requirements. Plura supports customer compliance and does not absolve customers of their own obligations. See [pricing](https://plura.ai/pricing?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) for plan details that include compliance tooling.

For a full side-by-side, see Plura vs. alternatives. **Plura AI.** Plura combines text conversation and live transfer on an FCC-licensed carrier. Branded caller ID is issued at the carrier level, and real-time DNC scrubbing runs before every dial. Stateful cross-channel memory keeps SMS and voice in one thread. Plura also provides 50+ [integrations](https://plura.ai/integrations?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent), including HubSpot, Salesforce, Zoho, Go High Level, Calendly, Google Calendar, DocuSign, and Stripe. The AI that texted at 9 a.m. calls at noon already knowing the window count, frame material, and timeline. **Jobber.** Jobber functions as a field-service CRM and booking layer.4 Jobber’s AI Receptionist focuses on inbound call answering and appointment booking. Its published material does not describe an AI SMS conversation engine with text-to-live-transfer capability, so it fits best as a CRM rather than as the primary conversation engine for this five-stage flow. **Setterly.** Setterly runs a pay-per-booked-appointment model focused on reactivating aged leads via two-way SMS.4 It operates as text-only. [Setterly does not make phone calls and has no documented live transfer or voice capability](https://setterly.co/us/compare/revin-alternatives). [CRM integration is optional and charged as a one-off fee](https://setterly.co/blog/setterly-pricing), and per-appointment price is not published. Published case studies focus on UK campaigns. **WindowEdge AI.** [WindowEdge AI positions itself as an agentic business operating system for window and door dealerships](https://windowedge.ai/blog/agentic-business-os-for-home-improvement). It does not present itself as a CRM or as an AI receptionist. Public material does not list concrete pricing, named CRM integrations, or documented live transfer capability. **Hatch.** Hatch integrates with ServiceTitan and focuses on estimate follow-up campaigns. It is strong on multi-touch SMS cadences for unsold estimates. Its documentation does not describe text-to-live-transfer or a carrier-owned voice layer. **HeavySet and FirstThere AI.** These are named AI SMS platforms in the home services category. Neither publishes documented text-to-live-transfer capability or a carrier-owned infrastructure layer in available material. ## Conclusion: Choosing a Platform for the 5-Stage Sequence Plura AI is the best AI SMS follow-up platform for window and door leads because it holds a real text conversation with the homeowner, qualifies window count and frame material, then calls and live transfers a warm buyer to your rep on its own FCC-licensed carrier, with one stateful conversation memory shared across SMS and voice. That combination aligns directly with how window and door deals close in practice. The five-stage sequence, the scripts, and the qualification logic in this article describe the operating model. The platform decision comes down to choosing a tool that can execute all five stages end-to-end on its own carrier, with compliance tooling built in, and with conversation memory that prevents your rep from hearing “I already told your system that.” [Compare Plans and Rates Side by Side](https://plura.ai/pricing?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) [Check Your ROI in Real Time](https://plura.ai/calculator?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent) ## Frequently Asked Questions ### How Fast Should an AI Text a Window and Door Lead After Form Fill? The operative benchmark is under 60 seconds. The 391% speed-to-lead gap cited earlier explains why the first text matters more than any later touch. The Harvard Business Review study “The Short Life of Online Sales Leads” found that firms attempting contact within one hour were nearly seven times more likely to qualify a lead than firms waiting one additional hour, and more than 60 times more likely than firms waiting 24 hours or longer. For window and door dealers running Google LSA, Angi, or Facebook leads, the homeowner has typically submitted two or three quote forms simultaneously, so the first text usually wins the conversation. ### Can AI SMS Qualify Window Count and Frame Material? Yes. A well-built AI SMS sequence captures window count, frame material (vinyl, wood, fiberglass, aluminum), full-frame vs. insert or pocket replacement, timeline, single- vs. multi-story, and whether the homeowner wants a measurement appointment or a sales visit. Frame material is the single largest driver of window unit cost, with typical supply-only prices ranging from $350-$900 for vinyl to $1,000-$2,500+ for wood-clad. Full-frame vs. insert can shift price by $300-$800 per opening. Capturing both before the sales visit reduces scope surprises and lets the rep anchor a credible number on arrival. When the homeowner asks for a price before qualification is complete, the AI stops texting and executes a live transfer with the partial qualification data already in the call context. ### How Do You Reactivate Unsold Window Estimates Without Annoying Homeowners? The day 1-21 cadence works because each touch adds something new, such as a financing option, a scheduling window, a proof point, or a seasonal consideration. The sequence stops the moment the homeowner replies. Generic “just checking in” texts burn the thread. Personalized texts that reference the specific window count and frame material from the original appointment perform significantly better. [Hatch’s analysis of 163,212 estimate follow-up campaigns found a 60% average response rate, with the best-performing campaign hitting 90.06% using seven messages over seven days](https://tailwindsops.com/insights/roofing-database-reactivation-playbook). The worst-performing campaign in the same dataset pulled 17.82% using nearly the same volume but opened with a 434-character text. Keeping the first text under 200 characters and ending every touch with a one-line question improves response quality. ### Which CRM Has Built-In SMS for Window and Door Dealers? Window and door dealers commonly consider or use industry-specific CRMs such as MarketSharp, LeadPerfection, and improveit 360, while some also adopt general marketing CRMs like HubSpot and GoHighLevel or field-service platforms like ServiceTitan, which are not purpose-built for window and door workflows. Most of these platforms offer some SMS capability, but a native AI SMS conversation engine with text-to-live-transfer is not typically part of the out-of-the-box feature set. The practical approach is to connect an AI SMS platform to the CRM you already run. Plura connects to these systems via its integrations layer, reads the lead record, runs the sequence, qualifies the homeowner, executes the live transfer, and writes the outcome back to the CRM. ### Is AI Text Follow-Up for Window and Door Leads TCPA Compliant? Compliance depends on how the program is built and operated. The TCPA (47 U.S.C. § 227) covers automated text messages to wireless numbers. Promotional texts generally rely on prior express written consent obtained through an active step, with a clear disclosure that consent is not a condition of purchase, as described in TCPA guidance. CTIA guidance rules out relying on rented, sold, or shared opt-in lists. Every message needs a working opt-out, and opt-outs must be honored across every texting program the business runs. Plura’s Compliance Engine pre-loads TCPA, DNC, and 50+ state rule sets, runs real-time DNC scrubbing before every contact, enforces quiet hours by time zone, and maintains timestamped immutable consent records. Plura supports customer compliance and does not absolve customers of their own obligations. Consult qualified counsel for guidance specific to your situation. ### How Does 10DLC Registration Work for Window and Door Dealer Texting? 10DLC (10-digit long code) is the A2P (application-to-person) messaging registration system that carriers require before business texts can be delivered at scale. Registration happens through The Campaign Registry (TCR) and requires a valid EIN, a brand registration, and a campaign registration that describes the message type, opt-in flow, and sample messages. Carriers block traffic from unregistered numbers outright. Throughput limits are assigned per carrier based on brand verification level. A campaign can be registered and still be rejected downstream if the opt-in flow does not meet CTIA content standards. The Campaign Registry does not review or approve campaigns itself; that work belongs to the Campaign Service Provider and its upstream aggregator. Confirm with your provider how 10DLC registration is handled in your specific setup. ### What Happens When a Homeowner Texts Back a Price Question? The AI stops texting and executes a live transfer immediately. The correct response to “how much for 12 windows?” is an acknowledgment that the answer depends on frame material and installation method, followed by a call from the rep with the qualification data already in hand. The script: “Great question, 12 windows depends on frame material and whether we are doing full-frame or inserts, so I do not want to guess. Let me get [Rep] on the phone for two minutes to give you a real range, calling you now.” Plura’s Stateful Conversation Database means the rep picks up already knowing the homeowner’s name, the number of openings discussed, and any frame material captured before the price question arrived. ### How Long Does It Take to Launch AI SMS Follow-Up for a Window and Door Dealer? A simple inbound qualification and follow-up flow typically goes live within days. A more complex build that includes unsold-estimate reactivation against a MarketSharp or LeadPerfection export, custom qualification branching, and CRM write-back often runs closer to one to two weeks, depending on data quality and workflow complexity. Plura’s onboarding sequence runs a discovery audit, ingests sample calls and existing scripts, builds a conversation mockup, iterates with the dealer, builds the production workflow, runs a pilot on a subset of real leads, and then moves to full launch. [Every annual contract includes a 90-day opt-out window if the deployment is not delivering](https://plura.ai/pricing?utm_term=ai-sms-follow-up-window-door&utm_campaign=ai_growth_agent).
