How to create a business quote.

A quote in business should contain your basic business information, the services you can provide them, and how much those services will cost. At a minimum, every quote should include:

• Your business details, including name, location, and contact information
• The services you can provide the client
• The price of each of these services
• The amount of time it will take to deliver these services
• The total cost of all services provided
• The length of time the quote is valid
• A location for the client to sign and accept the quote

To make sending a quote to clients even easier, consider creating a digital document that they can electronically sign and send back to you. This will allow you to deliver quotes and get responses faster so you can get right to work.
