What you’ll achieve with Lead Quote Close
- Quote faster, book more: Auto-quote with guardrails, dynamic pricing, and availability-aware rules.
- Eliminate re-entry: Map quoted totals into fixed reservation fields in Limo Anywhere—no double work.
- Measure true ROI: Capture campaign UTMs on leads and connect offline conversions to Google Ads for optimization.
- Protect margins automatically: Time-of-day fees, zone surcharges, low-inventory uplift, and event/holiday rules.
- Stay in control: Block quotes you can’t (or don’t want to) fulfill and reflect maintenance downtime instantly.
The Five Deep Dives (start here)
1) Setting Up Rate Mapping Between Lead Quote Close and Limo Anywhere
Prevent downstream clean-up and billing errors by tying every quoted amount to the right LA fields.
Key takeaways
- Map only to fixed fields (base/flat, wait time, cleanup, discounts). Avoid percentage/multiplier fields (e.g., gratuity, per-hour).
- For hourly work, map hours to a base/fixed field.
- Treat discounts as negative-value items and map them to a discount field.
- Create any missing rates first in My Office → Rate Management, then refresh the mapping list.
- Make critical lines visible when zero so CSRs can edit post-trip.
- Save and test with a sample quote.

2) Utilizing the Right Custom Lead Forms for Your Business Needs
Match the form to the service and placement (homepage banner, weddings, transfers, charter, etc.) to increase completion and data quality.
Highlights
- Form options include Short, Micro, Bootstrap, Party, Horizontal, Center, Transfer, Charter, Extras, Personal, Contact.
- Configure branding, CSS, min/max dates, price display, promo/agent attribution, and account routing.
- Use “Lead Form Configuration Used” in Selection Factors to tailor pricing or promos by form/campaign.
- Note: Excursion is intended for internal use only (not client-facing).

3) Managing Auto-Quote Blocking & Vehicle Availability in Lead Quote Close
Ensure the system only quotes what you can deliver—and when you want to deliver it.
Highlights
- Create blackout policies by zone, service type, vehicle category, lead time, request channel, and more.
- After creating a policy, mark it Active and click Save Changes for it to take effect.
- Mark specific vehicles unavailable (maintenance, detailing, warranty work) so quotes reflect current capacity.

4) Creating Dynamic Pricing with Selection Factors in Lead Quote Close
Automate margin protection and demand-based pricing—no more manual overrides.
Common plays
- Time of day: add an overnight/early-AM fee.
- Zone surcharges: apply when outside primary areas.
- Low inventory: e.g., fewer than two SUVs available → +15%.
- High-demand dates/events: holiday and concert rules.
- Booking source: online discount vs. manual booking fee; campaign-specific discounts via UTMs.
- Rate-sheet switching based on conditions.

5) Configuring the Addons.LA Chrome Extension for Limo Anywhere
Give CSRs, dispatchers, and managers role-based access to critical Addons/LQC modules without leaving their screen.
Setup in Addons
- Addons → Resources → Employees → (gear) → Chrome Extension
- Generate/Copy token, select allowed features by role, then Update Chrome Extension Settings
Install in Chrome - Add from the Web Store → Extension options → enter Company Short Name (this may differ from your Limo Anywhere Company ID) and the token → Save
- Confirm status; new tabs appear in Quotes and Dispatch per your enabled features.

Must-have setup references (bookmark these)
- Add the Lead Form to Your Website
How the embed works (script/iFrame expander), Inner Element ID (must be an ID), Outer Selector (must be an ancestor), CSS options, and troubleshooting.
https://kb.limoanywhere.com/docs/adding-lead-form-to-website/ - Validate Domain DNS (Addons)
Add CNAME records so follow-ups and notifications are authenticated and reduce the chance of spam filtering (delivery is never guaranteed).
https://kb.limoanywhere.com/docs/validate-domain-dns-addons/ - Google Ads Offline Conversion Setup
Schedule HTTPS imports so Google Ads can optimize to real outcomes from LQC. Use the exact Google Offline Conversion Name from Lead Quote Close → Marketing → Analytics, and schedule the import daily (example: 4:00 AM).
https://kb.limoanywhere.com/docs/ad-conversion-setup-for-google-ads-with-lead-quote-close/ - Setup Guide: https://onboarding.limoanywhere.com/lqc-signup You must be an existing customer with LQC added to your account to access.
Quick-start checklist
- Embed a form on your site
- Copy the script from Lead Forms and place it on the page.
- Set Inner Element ID and Outer Selector (ancestor).
- Whitelist domains in Lead Quote → Settings → System settings → Whitelisted Hosts.
- Test submit; confirm expansion/resizing via expander.php (avoid hand-built iFrames).
- Validate email domain
- Addons → Settings → Domains → Add New Domain → add records → Validate Domain (DNS can take up to ~48 hours).
- Configure Selection Factors
- Start with Time of Day, Zone surcharge, Booking method, and inventory-based rules; add holiday/event logic.
- Set Auto-Quote Blocking
- Create policies for service area, lead time, vehicle category, and request channel; add a customer-facing “blocked reason,” mark Active, and Save Changes.
- Map rates to LA
- Create missing rates in My Office → Rate Management.
- Map to fixed fields only; for hourly map to a base/fixed field; set important lines visible when zero; treat discounts as negative-value items mapped to a discount field.
- Save and test with a sample quote.
- Turn on attribution & offline conversions
- Confirm UTMs are captured via the embed/expander.
- Configure Lead Quote Close → Marketing → Analytics and set a daily Google Ads HTTPS import (e.g., 4:00 AM).
KPIs to monitor weekly
- Lead → Quote rate (form completion & auto-quote success)
- Quote → Reservation conversion rate
- Average quote turnaround time
- % reservations with complete rate mapping
- Revenue & margin by source/campaign
- Blocked-quote count & reasons (tune rules vs. availability)
Common misconfigurations (and fixes)
- Pricing looks off → Manually quote a test lead and click the (?) breakdown; verify rate sheets & Selection Factors.
- Form reloads and never advances → Outer Selector isn’t an ancestor of the Inner Element.
- Form doesn’t resize / UTMs missing → Ensure the embed loads addons.la/.../expander.php; a hand-built iFrame will not resize or pass UTMs.
- Fields missing in the reservation → Revisit Rate Mapping; confirm you mapped to fixed fields and created missing rates.
- Emails landing in spam → Complete DNS validation and re-test.
Pro tips from our implementation team
- Use purpose-built forms (Transfer, Charter, Party) and campaign-specific configurations for cleaner analytics and higher intent.
- Keep post-trip edits simple by making key lines visible when zero.
- Maintain vehicle schedules so quotes always reflect true availability.
- Pair Auto-Quote Blocking with clear customer messaging to reduce drop-offs and calls.
