Managing Expiry & Suggestions
Manual Expiry – Set a custom expiration date for a specific proposal.
Auto Expiry – Apply the same expiration rule to all proposals automatically.
Allow Suggestions – Turn your proposal into a two-way street by letting leads share feedback directly inside the proposal.
How Leads Provide Suggestions
Here’s how it works for your leads:
- When they open the proposal, they’ll spot a chat icon in the top-right corner.
- Clicking it lets them type in suggestions or feedback.
- You’ll get an email notification with their comments.
- Clicking the link in the email takes you straight to their suggestions.
- You can reply right there in the proposal, and they’ll be notified instantly
Final Send via Email
Compose Email: When you click Compose Email, you’ll be directed to send the proposal directly to your lead.
