AI lead-to-quote automation for service businesses with n8n

Hi everyone,

I’ve been building a reusable n8n automation system for service businesses that need to turn incoming leads into structured requests, quotes, CRM records and follow-ups.

The workflow can:

  • Receive leads through a webhook
  • Use AI to extract vehicle/service information
  • Detect missing information
  • Match requested services against an editable price catalog
  • Calculate an estimated quote
  • Store the lead in an n8n Data Table CRM
  • Schedule automatic follow-ups
  • Handle quote acceptance or rejection
  • Optionally send messages through WhatsApp Business Cloud
  • Optionally create appointments in Google Calendar

I designed the core workflow so that WhatsApp and Google Calendar are completely optional. It can work only with n8n Data Tables and a message outbox.

I’m also publishing a few smaller free workflows through the n8n Creator program, including:

  1. Webhook Lead Collector to n8n Data Tables
  2. Automatic Lead Follow-Up Reminder
  3. Simple Service Quote Calculator

The complete system is packaged as 4 ready-to-import workflows with a Setup Installer and documentation.

I’d be interested in feedback from other n8n users, especially on the workflow architecture and how useful this type of lead-to-quote automation is for agencies and local service businesses.

If anyone is working on similar lead management or quoting automations, I’d also be interested in comparing approaches.
