About ResponsiBid
ResponsiBid is quoting and sales software for home service businesses. Its pricing page names window cleaning, pressure washing, gutter cleaning, maid services, carpet and tile cleaning, pest control and dog waste removal. It is made by Symphosize, LLC, which does business as ResponsiBid and lists an address in Queen Creek, Arizona. Founder Curt Kempton built it while he was running his own window-cleaning business.
The core is a quoting calculator. You set up your services, service tiers, bundles and automatic upsells, then quote in person, over the phone or through an instant quote form on your website, and the quote is presented as a proposal with package pricing. Customers can choose services and book a time themselves, and the CrewCal feature suggests dates based on your calendar and drive time. After the quote, customizable follow-up sequences send emails and text messages, and the SendJim integration adds postcards, letters and voicemail drops. A sales pipeline, customer profiles and custom statuses track where each lead stands.
ResponsiBid says it is not a CRM and is built to work alongside one. Direct connections push leads and scheduled work into Jobber, Housecall Pro, The Customer Factor, ServiceMonster and Markate, and scheduled jobs sync to Google Calendar. Zapier covers other tools. Other integrations include SendJim (mail), NiceJob (review invitations), Quality Driven Software (customer surveys), Twilio and PayPal (collecting a deposit before a customer self-schedules).
The Startup plan is free and covers the quoting calculator, service tiers, bundles, upsells and instant website quoting. Scaling is $179 a month and adds the CRM connections, sales pipeline, email and text follow-up, calendar scheduling, CrewCal and customer self-scheduling. Pro is $229 a month and adds the PayPal, NiceJob and Quality Driven Software integrations, account success coaching and access to the user group. Every plan includes 1 admin user and unlimited sub-users. ResponsiBid charges a setup fee that covers personalized setup with a dedicated coach, but it does not publish the amount. It says there are no long-term contracts, and seasonal businesses can pause for $50 a month for up to 4 months a calendar year.
The trade-off: ResponsiBid covers the front of the sale (quote, follow-up, booking) and leaves invoicing and day-to-day job management to your CRM, so you pay for two systems. It fits businesses with enough quote requests that faster quoting and steady follow-up cover the monthly fee.

Key features
Integrations
Pros
- + Quotes in person, by phone or on your website
The same quoting calculator works face to face, on a call screen during phone calls, and as an instant quote form on your website, so every customer gets consistent prices.
- + Tiers, bundles and upsells built in
You can offer several service tiers, discount bundles and automatic upsells in the quote, which helps raise the ticket size without extra effort from the salesperson.
- + Automated follow-up on several channels
Follow-up sequences send emails and texts automatically, and the SendJim integration adds postcards, letters and voicemail drops to the same sequence.
- + Customer self-scheduling
Customers can pick their services and book a time themselves, and CrewCal suggests dates based on your calendar and drive time.
- + Connects to common home service CRMs
Leads and scheduled work flow into Jobber, Housecall Pro, The Customer Factor, ServiceMonster or Markate, with Zapier for other tools.
- + Free plan to start
The Startup plan is free and includes the quoting calculator and instant website quoting, with 1 admin user and unlimited sub-users.
Cons
- − Needs a CRM alongside it
ResponsiBid says it is not a CRM. Invoicing and day-to-day job management happen in a separate system, which means a second subscription.
- − Setup fee not published
There is a setup fee for personalized setup with a dedicated coach, but the pricing page does not show the amount. Ask for it in writing before you sign up.
- − Key features start at $179 a month
Email and text follow-up, CRM connections, calendar scheduling and customer self-scheduling are on Scaling ($179 a month), not the free plan.
- − Coaching and some integrations on Pro only
Account success coaching, the user group and the PayPal, NiceJob and Quality Driven Software integrations require Pro at $229 a month.
- − Narrow trade focus
It is built for cleaning and exterior service menus such as windows, pressure washing and gutters. Trades with custom, project-style estimates may find it a poor fit.
Implementation
Pick the CRM that runs your jobs and invoices first, and check that it is on ResponsiBid's integration list (Jobber, Housecall Pro, The Customer Factor, ServiceMonster, Markate) or reachable through Zapier. Setup is run with a dedicated coach paid for by the setup fee, and ResponsiBid says watching its Certification Videos before the setup meetings shortens the process. Enter your services and prices first, then your tiers, bundles and upsells, then build the email and text follow-up sequences (and SendJim mail if you use it). Once the quote flow works, add the instant quote form to your website, connect Google Calendar or your CRM calendar, and turn on customer self-scheduling. If your business is seasonal, ask about the $50-a-month pause option.

Watch out for
A quoting and sales tool rather than a full business system: ResponsiBid says it is not a CRM and works best paired with one for invoicing and job management. Follow-up, CRM connections and self-scheduling start on the $179 Scaling plan, and the setup fee amount is not published.
