Here’s how to use Indy’s Proposal Template to get started:
A proposal template is a document you prepare in advance with reusable blocks of information to help you write proposals faster and more efficiently. Customizing the template takes only minutes, since all the relevant details for your project are already included on its pages.
Freelancers and independent contractors use proposals to bid on new work, secure clients, and win jobs. For freelancers who want more projects in the pipeline or for people looking to make a career change into self-employment: writing great proposal is one of your most powerful job search tools.
You can invest time in creating a beautiful template for your proposals. This will include business information, logo and any other brand elements you want to add. There are sections of reusable content that cover topics such as the portfolio, common terms and conditions etc., and feedback from previous customers.
Creating a template is one of the most important steps in establishing yourself as an expert and maintaining consistency throughout your brand. Every new proposal will have professional design quality, making great impressions on clients you want to win.
Writing a WordPress Website proposal template is simple. We'll show you a process for making your own with the help of this guide.

Now that you have those things, you can begin writing your WordPress Website proposal template.
If you have a previous proposal to look at, then start by copying or noting all the information that can be reused. For example, if you have customer success stories in your portfolio, add this entire section into your template.
If you don't have a complete template, then writing your own proposal from scratch using Indy's template is easy. Simply create a new one and start editing!
Here are the basic steps:
That’s it! Your new proposal template is finished.
The best way to test the template is by using it to create a full proposal. While writing one, you can make note of what's missing from your template and go back later for updates.
Building confidence is vital for getting clients in the competitive WordPress Website design industry. As a professional, your proposal needs to have an attractive design and clear structure.

Those are three ways your proposal template can help you land more jobs. Get started with one as soon as possible to begin reaping the benefits.
Thank you for contacting me. I put this proposal together based on our conversations.
Here are a few quick observations:
As you continue through this proposal, you will see how my website design services can help you meet your goals and your deadlines.
WordPress is the largest CMS in use today. I’ve been helping clients launch successful WordPress sites for over ten years. My work includes small sites, like yours, and much larger e-commerce sites with several hundred pages. Every project receives the same care and attention to detail, regardless of size.
Here are some testimonials from previous clients:
My clients value my professionalism, commitment to deadlines, and the results I give them.
Based on your information, Michele Gonzales wants to launch a new website for their family counseling service. The website will be just a few pages that cover the details about the counseling services offered. No online purchasing is needed, but a plugin will be used to facilitate an online booking system for new clients who want an initial session.
Social media links will be included on each page of the website and a blog template will be created for Michele Gonzales to use to create blog posts in the future.
Here is the plan for how my WordPress website design services will meet your goals. Let me break down the specific targets and how they will be met.
With such a fast turnaround, all parties accept the website may be launched while still requiring minor editing.
Any adjustments to the plans can be made by sending me a message via the Slack channel or by email at debra.hill@gmail.com.
I am committed to meeting your deadlines and delivering quality business work on schedule. Here are the milestones for this project:
My services have a reputation for organization, follow-through, and prompt delivery. I take pride in this reputation and look forward to delivering exceptional results for Michele Gonzales.
Projects such as this one start and finish very quickly. To facilitate these projects, I offer a schedule of payments. Here are the payment milestones:
All the pages should be reviewed twice during the process. If further changes are required, these will be billed at a rate of $45 per hour.
Electronic invoices will be sent once the contract has been signed and milestones passed. Each invoice is payable within 10 business days of receipt. Late payments may result in the suspension of work and/or late fees as specified in the contract.
Once you agree to this proposal, I will prepare a simple contract for this business project. The contract will reference the terms of this proposal, including any amendments you suggest. If you agree to these terms, please sign below, and return this proposal to me.
Thank you very much. I look forward to working with Michele Gonzales.
Signed
Michele Gonzales
