We used to spend at least 30 minutes on each quote. Now they’re generated in seconds. We sent out 331 quotes over the last 4 months, and thanks to the automated quoting system, we saved at least 166 hours.
The challenge: When 30-minute quotes cost you customers
YourPergola had a problem that’s killing pergola businesses.
Premium products. Top manufacturers. Growing reputation in Hungary.
But they were bleeding leads.
Not because of price. Not because of quality.
Because they were too slow.
In the Hungarian market, customers don’t wait. They’re comparing three, four, five pergola companies at once. First one to respond with a real quote? That’s who wins.
And YourPergola was stuck spending 30 minutes per quote, building Excel spreadsheets while their competitors were already calling the customer.
Before SaleSqueze
30+ minutes per quote (manual Excel calculations)
30-40 inquiries per month
Maximum 5% conversion rate
Customers choosing competitors while waiting for quotes
Sales team drowning in price matrices instead of selling
“We were getting inquiries and just losing them due to long reaction time. Even if our price was competitive, if we took too long to respond, the customer had already chosen someone else.” — Tamas Horvath, Managing Director
on average 90+ inquiries per month (125% increase)
331 qualified inquiries in 4 months
Saved 166 hours on quote preparation
5-10% conversion rate (doubled)
10-minute response time from inquiry to quote
“Now when a customer configures their pergola online, we instantly know they’re serious. They’ve already designed it. They know what they want. Our job is yo just close the deal.” — Tamas Horvath, Managing Director
The 90 day transformation
Month 1 (July)
Month 2 (August)
Month 3 (September)
Month 4 (October)
The transformation wasn’t just about numbers. It was about competing on speed.
Before SaleSqueze, YourPergola was fighting thee same fight as everyone else. Waiting for inquiries. Racing to build quotes in Excel. Hoping to respond faster than the competitor.
Every lead felt like a lottery ticket that might expire before they could cash it in.
But once the configurator went live, the entire game changed.
Customers stopped sending vague “How much does a pergola cost?” emails.
Instead, they arrived already educated. Already configured. Already serious.
They could see their exact pergola in 3D. Choose between the Bioclimatic Pergola S500 or the Retractible Roof Pergola Slide models. Select colors, side enclosures, lighting, and automation. Watch the price calculate in real-time.
Before even contacting YourPergola.
Tamas’s phone started ringing differently. No tire-kickers asking for ballpark estimates. But qualified buyers saying:“I’ve designed my pergola online. When can you install it?”
The sales team transformed from quote-generating machines back to trusted advisors. Helping customers refine their designs. Suggesting upgrades. Closing deals.
The marketing breakthrough
But here’s what made the real difference: They started advertising the configurator itself.
YourPergola spent €1,000-2,000/month on advertising. Initially, ads went to lead forms. Results were okay. 30-40 inquiries per month.
Then they changed the strategy.
New ads said: “Design Your Dream Pergola in 3D – Configure Yours Now.”
And linked directly to the configurator.
The results? Inquiry volume more than doubled to 90+ per month.
“Without marketing the configurator, people won’t find it on your website,” Tamas explains. “But once we started advertising it with nice photos and the message ‘configure your pergola yourself’, the numbers went crazy.”
The showroom advantage
When YourPergola opened their new showroom in October 2025, they didn’t just put the configurator on their website.
They put it on a massive touchscreen in the showroom.
Now, when customers visit, the sales team can configure quotes together with them in real-time. Change dimensions. Try different colors. Add or remove features.
And the customer sees the exact 3D rendering and final price instantly.
No “let me calculate this and email you.” No waiting. No wondering.
The quote is ready before they leave the showroom.
“The configurator is now the center of our sales process. Whether online or in person, every customer uses it. And it’s made us one of the fastest responders in the Hungarian market.”
— Tamas Horvath, Managing Director
From losing leads to dominating peak season
241 qualified inquiries in 90 days.
Zero manual quote preparation.
10-minute response time from inquiry to quote.
The sales team focused entirely on closing deals.
YourPergola didn’t just solve their speed problem. They turned response time from their biggest weakness into their competitive advantage.
While competitors are still building Excel spreadsheets for 30 minutes per quote, YourPergola customers are watching their pergola come to life in 3D and getting quotes in under 10 minutes.
The average quote value? Over €20,000.
And customers are choosing YourPergola because they’re fast, professional, and easy to work with
“In Europe, speed is everything,” Tamas says. “Customers are comparing multiple companies. If you’re not first with a real quote, you’ve already lost it.”
YourPergola isn’t losing anymore.
