About This Automation

Proposal and SOW creation turns discovery call details into a formal document covering scope, pricing, and terms. Building each one by hand pulls a sales rep through multiple manual drafting and approval steps, slowing down how quickly a deal can move forward.

An automated version drafts the proposal and SOW from call notes, calculates pricing against a rate card, and routes only exceptions for approval. The result is a consistent, branded document that reaches the client faster and with less back and forth.

Key features
Drafts full proposal and SOW content automatically from discovery call details
Calculates effort and pricing from live rate card figures
Routes only high-value deals for manager approval, skipping the rest
Formats every proposal into a branded, ready-to-send document
Sends the proposal to the client and tracks when it opens
Updates the deal record and follow-up task in the background

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Deal Moves to Proposal Stagetrigger

Workflow starts the moment a rep sets the deal stage to Proposal.

2. Gather Discovery Notes & Scope

Pulls call notes and the latest scope thread into one brief.

3. Draft Proposal & SOW Content

Generates the scope, deliverables, timeline, and formal SOW sections from the brief and past templates.

4. Pull Rate Card From Excel

Calculates the effort and price estimate against the current rate card.

5. Manager Reviews

If the estimate is above the approval threshold, the manager gets a prompt with the draft attached for a quick yes or no.

6. Generate Branded Proposal

Approved content is dropped into the branded template automatically.

7. Send Proposal

Sends the document to the client and starts tracking opens and signature status.

8. Log Deal & Follow-Up Task

Deal record updates automatically and a follow-up task is scheduled for the rep.
