Create a Snow Proposal

Build a snow removal proposal step by step, adding customer, job, operation, and location details the right way.

In this article:

Create a Snow Proposal

  1. Add Details: Customer, Job Name, Operation, Visit Location
    *Note: The Job Name will carry over when renewing recurring services. We recommend keeping the Job Name generic by using the default options of Client/Company Name or Billing/Visit Location. We do not recommend including the year.

  2. Add Location
    Enter address in Visit Location field, address options will populate to select.
    Note: If visit address is the same as the billing address, select 'Use Billable Location' to fill in address.

  3. Is this a one-off job or recurring?
    Select Recurring

  4. Add Start Date & End Date
    This will determine when the visit and invoice schedules start and end. Typically this will match your season.
    Example: We offer Snow Plowing throughout the winter months, so my Start date is November 1 and my end date is March 31.

  5. Do you invoice every visit or on a fixed schedule?
    Select Per Visit

  6. Visit Frequency
    Select On-Demand, No visits generated at Job creation
    Example: Visits for crews are generated ad-hoc after a job is created.

  7. Estimate

    1. Select +Add Item or +Add Item Group to add services, materials, labor etc. (snow plow, shovel, salt)

    2. Set each Occurrence to Unlimited

      • If you have a set number of services per contract, set Occurrence to TBD and enter number of services

  8. Go to Map & Notes
    Add Map pins & Notes for customers and team.

  9. Additional Options
    Add Discounts, or Prepay

  10. Select Save & Close

Actual

Items/item groups marked Actual will be visible to crews on work orders. Only costs (what a service costs your business) will be available.

Billable

Items/item groups marked Billable will be visible to customers on proposals and invoices. Only prices (what you charge a customer) will be available.
