The proposal took a week. The deal died on day three.
You had a great discovery call on Tuesday. The prospect was engaged. They asked for a proposal.
You sent it the following Monday. By then they’d spoken to two other MSPs, their CFO had raised a concern, and the urgency had faded. The proposal was good. The timing killed it.
The scenario:
You want to build a proposal template system that lets you send a compelling proposal within 24 hours of the discovery call.
The prompt:
You’re creating a modular proposal system.
Context: [paste your service offerings and typical deal structure]
Build a system that:
Uses pre-built sections (about us, approach, pricing, terms) that snap together
Includes 3 customisation points per proposal (client name, specific pain points, recommended tier)
Can be assembled in under 60 minutes
Opens with the client’s problem, not your company history
Includes a clear pricing table with 2–3 options
Ends with a specific next step and a deadline
Create the section templates and a proposal assembly checklist.
