Quotes & client approval for service pros
Freelance Quote Template
Create a freelance quote with deliverables, milestones, terms, and prices you control.
Quote a defined deliverable, not an open-ended promise
Show the client the outputs, review rounds, and handoff included in your freelance work.
What this estimate usually includes
List discovery, deliverables, review rounds, and handoff. Use pages, hours, milestones, or projects as units that fit the work.
How to write exclusions
Identify extra revisions, additional research, publishing, development, and tasks outside the brief when they are excluded.
When to offer Good / Better / Best
Differentiate the number of deliverables, depth of discovery, or review rounds. Make each increase in scope visible.
After you send it
Collect the brief and source material before the start date. Answer questions in the thread and turn the approved selection into an invoice.

Common questions
How do I scope a freelance quote?
Define deliverables, quantities, feedback rounds, client responsibilities, milestones, exclusions, and your own prices.
Can I download this document as a PDF?
Yes. Use Print / save PDF and choose Save as PDF in your browser. Editing and downloading a local quote do not require signup.
How should I decide what to charge?
Use labor and material costs appropriate to your work and region. QuoteCedar does not provide price estimates.
Does the client need an account?
No. A shared client page can be opened without an account. The business signs in to save a quote and create the link.
Can I change approved details?
An approved quote is locked. Duplicate it to create a new draft version when the work needs to change.
