Harbour Charters
The first reply should be a quote, not a request for the details you already asked for.
This is a demo concept, a complete design built to show how the system works in this trade. It is not a paid client engagement, and no results are claimed for it.
Overview
A demonstration build showing how a high-value charter enquiry can arrive complete enough to quote from.
Challenge
Charter enquiries routinely arrive with no date, no party size and no indication of budget.
That turns every enquiry into a thread before it can become a booking.
Weather changes force manual rescheduling across a whole day of bookings.
Approach
Give each vessel a page that answers the obvious questions before they get asked.
Structure the enquiry so the details needed to price the charter are collected up front.
Reserve the human conversation for the part that actually needs judgement.
