โฃ Proposal Builder
Turn rough customer notes, call summaries, or a site visit into a clean scope, assumptions list, pricing structure, and next-step proposal โ in minutes, not hours.
For anyone writing proposals from notes instead of templates.
Contractors, landscapers, equipment dealers, consultants, agencies, and service businesses where every job is different and proposals are written one at a time from scratch.
- You spend 1โ3 hours writing every proposal โ and most are structurally the same
- Proposals are inconsistent in quality depending on who writes them
- You've lost jobs because a competitor sent a cleaner-looking proposal faster
- You want a structured draft you approve โ not a template that sounds generic
What the buyer gets.
What it asks for
- Customer name, job address, and contact info
- Raw notes from the call or site visit (unformatted is fine)
- Your pricing structure or rate card (rough numbers OK)
- Specific inclusions, exclusions, or assumptions you want covered
What it returns
- Executive summary (what you're proposing and why it fits their need)
- Scope of work with line-item breakdown
- Assumptions and exclusions list (protects you if scope creeps)
- Pricing summary with optional tiered options
- Next steps section with a clear call to action
- Owner approval checklist before sending to customer
Before and after.
โ Without this skill
- Proposals take 2โ3 hours to write per job
- Quality varies โ good proposals when you have time, rushed ones when you don't
- No assumptions list โ scope creep costs you money on every project
- Competitor sends a polished proposal in 30 minutes and wins the job
- Pricing sections are vague โ leads to renegotiation at delivery
โ With this skill
- Proposal draft ready in under 20 minutes from rough notes
- Consistent structure and quality on every job, every time
- Assumptions and exclusions built in โ scope creep is documented from day one
- Tiered pricing options give the customer a decision to make, not a take-it-or-leave-it
- You send a professional proposal same day as the site visit

Four steps from site visit to sent proposal.
Paste in whatever you captured: voice memo transcript, call notes, site visit bullet points, photos described in text. Unformatted is fine โ the skill structures it.
Tell it your rate structure, whether to include tiered options, your standard exclusions, and any specific customer context that should shape the tone.
The skill returns a complete proposal draft with an approval checklist: confirm scope accuracy, fill in real pricing, verify assumptions, remove placeholders.
Copy-paste into your email or proposal tool. Send the same day as the site visit while the job is fresh in the customer's mind. Nothing auto-sends.
