Websites That Ring

One-page website

Email form or Enquiry inbox?

Every one-page website comes with a quote request form. Here’s how it works on its own, and what changes when you add the Enquiry inbox.

Try it yourself

Send the example enquiry both ways and see what your customer does, and what you get.

Your customer, on your page

You

Fill in the form and send it to see what you get.

This is a demo. The Enquiry inbox side never sends anything, and the email form uses an example address.

Included

The form opens your customer’s email app with their details already filled in.

  4. 4.The enquiry arrives in your email like any other message.

The form sends the enquiry straight to you, with nothing more for your customer to do.

  2. 2.They see a thank you message on your page. That’s it.
  3. 3.The enquiry is emailed to you straight away.
