Workflow summary
One workflow handles everything end-to-end.
- 1A discovery-call intake form or webhook submits the client's name, company, problem, requested services, budget, and timeline
- 2AI drafts a scoped, sectioned proposal — executive summary, situation, scope of work, deliverables, timeline, and investment
- 3Assembles the AI draft and your company branding into a clean, ready-to-send proposal document
- 4Creates an editable Google Doc containing the finished proposal
- 5Emails the proposal to you for a final review before it reaches the client
- 6Logs the client, proposal link, and a suggested follow-up date to your Google Sheets pipeline
Every proposal starts from a blank page or a stale copy, while proposal SaaS charges $19–$49/user/mo just for template-merge functionality.
