Frequently asked questions

Will the proposal template work for small and large projects?

Yes. Remove the sections a small job does not need, or expand the scope and timeline for larger projects.

Should I include pricing in the proposal?

Usually yes. The pricing sheet shows clients clear package options, which speeds up decisions and cuts the back-and-forth.

How soon should I follow up after sending a proposal?

Two to three days after sending is a good first follow-up. The follow-up email pack spaces the rest over about two weeks.
