Questions
Common questions.
Does the price follow the guest count?
Yes. Enter the guest count once and every per-guest line follows it.
Can I send two menus to compare?
Yes. Send each menu as its own option on one link and see which one your client spent longer on.
Is it free?
Yes. The free plan has no card and no time limit, and keeps 5 proposals out for a decision at a time. Work you have won does not count toward it.
Does my client need an account to open the proposal?
No. They open a link. It carries your logo and your colours, and there is nothing to download or install.
Do I have to use your prices?
No. You start from a catalogue for your trade with typical starting rates, and change any rate, service or rule to your own.
