Small jobs can take half an evening to quote badly.
The enquiry arrives missing the useful bits, so the trade spends time extracting scope, expectations and budget before pricing even begins.

THE POINT
Get Steve out of admin mode and back into builder mode.
The prototype now goes from customer enquiry → qualified lead → editable line-item quote → send state. A real sprint would replace the example logic with the trade's actual pricing, services, qualifying questions and output.
