The prompt · ChatGPT
Help me make a quote template I can reuse for every job. My business: [what you do] What I usually quote for: [typical jobs] How I send quotes now: [e.g. text, email, PDF] Things customers often misunderstand: [e.g. what's included, when payment's due] Things I never include: [e.g. decorating, waste removal] My usual payment terms: [e.g. 25% deposit, balance on completion] How long my quotes are valid: [e.g. 30 days] Ask me up to 3 short questions first. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. A quote template with sections: customer details, the job, what's included, what's not included, price breakdown, timescale, payment terms, validity, and how to accept. 2. Standard wording for each section, with [blanks] to fill in per job. 3. A short covering message to send with each quote. 4. A follow-up message for a week later. Clear and professional, no jargon. This is not legal advice: I'll get my terms checked. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
A short example
