Questions
What's the difference between an estimate and a quote?
An estimate is your best price for the work as described and can change if the job changes. A quote is a fixed price. Change the title at the top to call it either.
How long should a software development quote stay valid?
Thirty days is common. Use a shorter date if your material prices move fast, and say so in the notes.
How do I turn the estimate into an invoice?
Your business details are saved in this browser. Open the invoice template, and add the same lines once the work is done.
