Writing client proposals used to take me hours β€” tweaking formats, calculating estimates, and trying to sound professional.

Now? I generate polished, scoped proposals in under 10 minutes using AI.

Here’s how πŸ‘‡


🀯 Before AI: Proposals Were a Mess

  • Reused old (outdated) templates

  • Wasted hours ballparking timelines & pricing

  • Clients kept asking for clarification


βœ… After AI: I Send Clear Proposals with Estimates in 10 Mins

Using ChatGPT + Notion, I now generate:

  • πŸ“ Structured project proposals

  • ⏱️ Realistic time & budget estimates

  • πŸ’° Tiered pricing options clients love


πŸ’¬ Prompt I Use

Prompt:

"Create a professional project proposal for building a custom CRM system for a mid-sized marketing agency. Include deliverables, estimated timeline (weeks), and pricing in three tiers."


πŸ“„ Example Output (Generated by ChatGPT)

Proposal: Custom CRM System – Marketing Agency


Deliverables

  • Lead tracking module

  • Campaign automation

  • Reporting dashboard

Timeline: 6–8 weeks

Pricing Tiers:

  • Basic: $4,500 (Core CRM)

  • Pro: $6,800 (CRM + Automation)

  • Enterprise: $9,500 (Full Suite + Support)


🧰 Tool I Use for This

Includes:

  • πŸ“ Proposal Generator Prompt

  • πŸ“Š Time & Budget Estimator

  • πŸ’° Pricing Tier Builder

  • πŸ“„ Exportable Notion Template

  • βœ… Real examples and client-ready formats
