Nobody wants a PDF
Sending a PDF proposal is outdated, uninspiring, and a deal killer. Worse yet, you have no idea what happens after you press send.

What is a proposal, really? It's your best possible ask for business. Sending a PDF attached to an email looks spammy and presents you in a bad light. By sending a branded link to an interactive web experience, you're instantly miles ahead of the competition.
Who do you think wins the deal if...
If the first thing your client needs to do is download a PDF on their phone, figure out how to open it, then pinch-and-zoom their way through a 20-page document, it's annoying for them and the first impression is awful.
With an interactive web proposal, your client can view it on whatever device they want to use and it will look and feel great for them. It’s frictionless, professional, and leaves a great first impression.
When you send a PDF, the answer is always "No idea". When you use Better Proposals, you get notifications the second your client has opened the proposal and can see exactly what sections they've read, in what order, and for how long. This gives you a massive competitive advantage.
It means you can strike while the iron is hot and it's fresh in their mind. No more awkward follow-up messages like "Just checking if you got my proposal". Instead, you have the information you need to act with confidence and get the deal.
We've all been there - sent a proposal, then checked it and spotted a mistake after it’s already in the client’s inbox. With a PDF, that means first fixing the issue, then embarrassingly re-sending it. With Better Proposals, you don’t have to re-send anything. Your proposal is a live document - just update it and your client will see the latest version instantly.
It's brilliant for closing deals live on the phone, too. Edit the proposal in real time, let your client refresh the page to view the updated version, and close the deal on the spot.
