Estimate Packages

With Estimate Packages, you can bundle services into comprehensive packages, making it easier for customers to choose a deal that best fits their needs and budget. Removing the burden of extensive research and decision-making, and eliminating the complexity of choice empowers your customers to make quicker decisions — and can set the tone for an easy ride and ultimate customer satisfaction.This feature allows you to create multiple package options within a single estimate, each with its own set of included services. You can even assign colors to different packages for clearer differentiation and a visually appealing presentation. The predefined packages:

  • Simplify the decision-making process for your clients, reducing your business’ time between estimate and approval 
  • Can lead to more efficient job scheduling and resource allocation

Your customers will appreciate:

  • The ability to select the one that offers the best value for their needs; with pre-packaged options, customers can easily compare different packages
