What is an inquiry?

An inquiry is a form you will complete on Zola and submit to a vendor to learn more about that specific vendor as well as informational regarding pricing and availability.

Once you've found a vendor that interests you, click the 'Get a Quote' button to submit to begin the inquiry process.

You'll be prompted to fill out a short survey and send a message to the vendor. Feel free to include all the relevant information and any questions you may have for the vendor, the more information you provide - the better they can respond to you!
