Before the quote

Hello Montgomery,

Most owners can see revenue only once it shows up.

The harder part is seeing what is happening before that.

Which accounts are being pursued? Who has been contacted? Which conversations are moving forward? What activity is actually creating quote opportunities?

For a lot of manufacturing companies, that information is scattered across inboxes, spreadsheets, individual reps, and memory.

Factur helps manage that front-end activity. We help manufacturers identify better-fit companies, reach the right people, start conversations, and keep the motion organized so your team has a clearer view of what is feeding the funnel.

Can I send over a few specifics of how we do that?


Best regards,

Re: Who's finding your next job

Hey Montgomery,

Most contractors grow in one of two ways.

More work from people who already know them, or new work from people who don't.

The first one usually comes from doing good work and staying visible. The second one takes outreach, follow-up, and someone consistently starting new conversations.

That second part is where a lot of teams get stuck. Not because they don't need it, but because nobody has time to own it.

Factur handles that work for contractors. We help you get in front of new customers, keep the follow-up moving, and build a pipeline outside of the usual referral network.

Worth talking through for fifteen minutes?


Best regards,

Kim Johnston

Hey Montgomery,

Quick question: who's actually responsible for bringing in the next job at your company?

For a lot of contractors, that ends up with the owner. But that means it gets handled after everything else: crews, customers, jobsite issues, estimates, and whatever else comes up that day.

The problem is, the work you chase now is usually what decides how busy you are six months from now.

That's where Factur comes in. We help contractors keep new conversations moving by handling the follow-up that usually gets pushed to the side.

How are you handling that today?

P.S. If you've heard of Constructur, it's now part of Factur. We help contractors get in front of more of the right people.

Re: Fast Turnaround Low-Volume Metal Parts

Hello Montgomery,

I’ve checked in a few of times and wanted to be sure I’m not reaching the wrong inbox.

We often support teams that need help with short-lead fabrication, machining support, qualified welded work, and finishing work, especially when there’s a gap between demand and internal capacity.

If this isn’t something you handle, would you mind pointing me to the right person on your team?

I’m happy to connect with whoever makes the most sense.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards,

Matt Beaver

Hello Montgomery,

I know timing isn’t always ideal, and things can move quickly.

I wanted to follow up in case lead times, quality concerns, or capacity gaps are starting to create friction on your end.

We work with teams that need responsive support across precision fabrication, machining, certified welding, heat treating, finishing, and inspection—especially when quick-turn support make the difference between meeting deadlines and delays.

If this isn’t something you handle directly, would you be open to pointing me to the right person on your team? And if it is, is there anything in your pipeline that’s been hard to source lately?

P.S. If someone else handles this, would you mind letting me know who’s best to speak with?
