EVERYTHING INCLUDED IN THIS TEMPLATE

Visually attractive cover

As a narrative designer, you know how much a good first impression matters. That is the reason we made sure the first thing your clients see is a stunning cover, as the goal is to start the proposal with an attention-grabbing image. You can change everything, from the text, logo, and background image to make it a better fit for your needs.

Pre-written introduction section

We know storytelling is your stronger side, but have you ever tried to write a business proposal? Explaining the aspects of your work combined with a meeting summary can be tough, even for someone from your industry.

Luckily, that is something you don't have to stress over, as our pre-written introduction section is already structured for you. You just need to add a few client specifics and that's it.

Like everything else in this proposal, it's completely editable - the colors, the text, images, layout - everything.

Processes and timelines

To make proposal writing even easier, we created a plan of action already sectioned to fit the right amount of information. That will allow you to give enough detail, but not so much that it seems overwhelming. Adjust it to your needs, change the text and colors and your business plan is ready!

Case study example

The number of companies related to the gaming industry that don't mention customer reviews or examples of their work in a proposal is terrifying. If you want to be taken seriously, you need to show that you understood the client's wishes and you came up with a practical solution.

In this narrative proposal template, we've set out an example case study. All you need to do is replace our example with one of yours and use the structure we've used.

Pricing

Describe your service costs in the best way possible! We have added a quote generator table that totals everything your proposal is offering. There is room to describe your hourly rate, job costs, or any add-ons you find relevant to your customers.

Next steps with digital signing

Once you get a customer on board, the last thing anyone wants is to get buried in slow paperwork. The 'Next steps' page allows you to explain your post-proposal process and enables customers to sign without handling any physical paper transfer.

Our digital signatures are 100% legal and compliant. Once your client signs, their digital signature certificate will appear in your Better Proposals account.

Pre-written contract

The best way to protect your narrative design business is by laying down the ground rules right from the start. For that reason, we have added the Terms and Conditions page to our proposal template, allowing you to customize it to fit your services.

We may not be legal professionals, but if you are not using anything at all, this will be a good stepping stone. That said, get a legal professional to read it over.

Take payments from your clients

Getting paid - it's the hardest thing to do in business. The sooner and the easier you can get that money in your account, the better.

Using our integrations with Stripe, PayPal, and GoCardless, you can take a payment from your client the moment they sign your proposal.

Your questions, answered

Common questions about plans, designs and security

Can I edit your templates?
Yes, you can! Add, delete, or change sections as you see fit. Make a mistake? Just import the template from the Marketplace again and you’re good to go.
You don’t have a template for my industry...what can I do?
Not to worry - all of our templates can be quickly adapted to suit your needs. Many users also prefer to import their own templates, so whether you want something all your own or something fast & easy, there’s a template for you.
Will my clients see your logo?
That’s up to you! Our Premium and Enterprise plans allow you to remove our branding and logo from your documents, giving a clean, white-label feel. Or, you can keep our logo and branding active and earn a commission when recipients sign up for Better Proposals.
Are my documents secure?
Yes, absolutely. Better Proposals uses 256bit SSL security to protect your account.

Your documents are always private, and every recipient is given their own unique encrypted link that can’t be intercepted or accessed by anyone else.
Can I change my plan after purchase?
Yes! Test out any of the plans above, and if it’s not working, you can upgrade or downgrade whenever you want, as often as you want.
I’m not a designer. How do I make my document look presentable?
Better Proposals handles font spacing, colour schemes, and design details by default. We’ll take care of the minor details so you can focus on landing the sale. Feeling stuck? Contact Support and we’ll help you along.
What about custom plans?
Enterprise users can send unlimited documents and every plan allows you to add as many users as you need, so you have ultimate flexibility.
Can you answer another question not listed here?
Yes! We can answer questions in as little as 2 minutes, and we do that 24 hours a day.
