What You Get
A professional proposal draft pulled directly from your discovery call notes. Covers the problem, your approach, timeline, pricing, and next steps.
The Prompt
Turn my discovery call notes into a client proposal.
My business: [what you do]
Client name: [name]
Client's business: [what they do]
My pricing: [your rate or package price]
Discovery call notes:
[paste your raw notes here]
Write a proposal with these sections:
1. UNDERSTANDING YOUR SITUATION
Restate their problem in their language. Show I was listening.
2. WHAT I PROPOSE
Describe the work I'll do. Be specific about deliverables.
Use bullet points. Each deliverable should be concrete and measurable.
3. HOW I WORK
Outline the process in 3-5 phases. Include what I need from them.
4. TIMELINE
Realistic timeline with milestones. Build in buffer.
5. INVESTMENT
Pricing with what's included. If I have tiers, show 2-3 options.
6. WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
Clear next step. Make it easy to say yes.
Keep the tone confident but not salesy. Write like a trusted advisor, not a vendor. Use "you" more than "I." Under 800 words total.
Make It Better
After the first draft, try:
- “Rewrite section 1 to reference the specific pain point they mentioned about [topic]”
- “Add a FAQ section addressing common objections: timeline concerns, revision policy, and what happens if scope changes”
- “Make the pricing section more confident. Remove any apologetic language.”
Tips
- Record your discovery calls (with permission). Paste the transcript instead of notes for much better results.
- Include something the client said word-for-word in your notes. Claude will weave it into the proposal. Clients notice when you quote them.
- Always review the pricing section yourself. Claude doesn’t know your margins.
- Add your portfolio links or case studies manually. The proposal structure from Claude plus your real results is a strong combination.
- Send within 24 hours of the call. Speed signals professionalism.
