Lily Pad Connect

What your customers see

## An instant quote, right where they're ready to buy

A guided flow that answers price and availability first, then walks the customer to a reservation — no account required to see a number.

- Delivery — Service, zip codes and dates — so the quote is real for their situation.
- Container — Pick a size and quantity, with your prices, photos and dimensions.
- Coverage — Contents protection and damage-waiver options, offered at the right moment.
- Accessories — Locks, packing supplies and the ancillary items you resell.
- Reserve — Reserve now / pay later, add a card, sign the contract — booked.

One widget, two businesses

## Two quote types, one entry step

Storage and container customers want different things, but they both start in the same place. Step 1 adapts to the quote type, so neither one is asked a question that doesn't apply to them.

- ![Lily Pad Connect Step 1 — Storage & box quote](https://runstella.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MTI5LCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--9d1c03c46a94524671132f3b7f0aaf122cf07420/step1-storage.jpg) — Storage & box quote — Service, zip code and dates — the entry step for a storage or box rental.
- ![Lily Pad Connect Step 1 — Container quote](https://runstella.com/rails/active_storage/blobs/redirect/eyJfcmFpbHMiOnsiZGF0YSI6MTMwLCJwdXIiOiJibG9iX2lkIn19--4807f231646c931358ae0b5658caa2451a38093c/step1-container.jpg) — Container quote — The same entry step, asking a container buyer for what a container quote needs.

What it does

## Everything a booking channel needs, built in

Not a lead-capture form wearing a booking flow's clothing — a real reservation tool wired to your rates and your CRM.

- Instant quotes — Customers get real pricing for their zip, dates and container size — no phone tag required.
- Online reservations — Reserve now, pay later, add a card and send a contract — the booking completes right on your site.
- Promo codes & sale pricing — Run promotions and promo codes, or bake a discount into an ad link so it's already applied on arrival.
- Saved return quotes — Prospects come back to a quote they started and pick up where they left off — a friendly “Welcome back.”
- Rate & inventory control — Manage box sizes, monthly and sale prices, dimensions, images and the default selection from your Stella admin.
- Bot protection — reCAPTCHA v2 / v3 and Cloudflare keep junk submissions out of your pipeline.

The lead path

## Every lead lands in Stella — the moment it happens

The widget isn't a silo. A quote on your website is a work order in Stella seconds later, and the whole team sees it.

Reporting

See every lead the widget produced, filter by status (Booked & Completed), date range and attribution source, and measure conversion. GTM-ready — it fires a step-by-step event for each stage into your own analytics.

- 01 — ## The lead lands in Stella instantly — Step 1 opens a work order tagged “Lily Pad Order,” with an audio ding and a visual alert in the corner — so it never sits.
- 02 — ## They get a quote automatically — Pass Step 2 and an auto-quote goes out under your branding. Drop off early and an automated, branded follow-up email does instead.
- 03 — ## The order fills in as they go — The work order updates in real time — box size, quantity, coverage — so you know exactly what they want before you call.
- 04 — ## You work the pipeline — Move it through Warm, Hot, Pending or Booked, with follow-up reminders landing on your to-do list.

Getting it live

## Two ways to embed it

Our team sets up the steps, wording and colors, then reviews it with you before you flip it live.

- Best for conversion — ## Hero + redirect — Step 1 lives in your homepage hero, above the fold; the remaining steps run on a page you host. Two embed codes, one seamless flow.
- Simplest — ## One “Get a quote” button — A button opens the full-width tool from Step 1. Drop it anywhere on your site and you're taking quotes.

Accessible · affordable · yours

## Built for any portable-storage business

You don't need a developer or a big budget to take bookings online. Lily Pad Connect ships with Stella Plus, installs with an embed code, and runs on the same rates and inventory your team already manages — so the number a customer sees online is the number you'd quote on the phone.
