How to create sales proposal templates

  • Updated

 

In this article, you will learn how to create sales proposal templates to send to your clients.

Sales Proposals — commonly known as “good, better, best” — is available as a Marketplace add-on that enables you to present your clients with multiple estimates in a clear and simple way. Sales proposal templates allow you to create and save a set of estimates that you can easily reuse for future jobs. No more creating the same sales proposals over and over again.

Sales proposal templates will save the following estimate attributes:

  • Cover images
  • Names
  • Description
  • Line items (including quantity, price, cost, markup, item description, amount, tax, associated item custom fields, taxable item setting, optional item setting)
  • Grouped line items
  • Notes
  • Attachments
