The Pricing Wizard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>The trusted pricing generator<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you can\u2019t control your profitability, it\u2019s hard to control anything else. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having a process to consistently price your clients is essential to ensuring you\u2019re pricing every client accurately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first step to achieving this is by using the Pricing Wizard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-a-pricing-wizard\">What is a Pricing Wizard?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The GoProposal Pricing Wizard is software that lets you create a comprehensive, menu-based pricing model that\u2019s easy to customize for each client.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Say goodbye to pricing packages that don\u2019t suit most of your client base with customized, itemized pricing that eliminates the risk of scope creep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sounds complex? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s not. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Let the system do the work for you in seconds, building out suggested pricing based on best practices from other accountants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-use-my-pricing-wizard-matrix\">How do I use my Pricing Wizard Matrix?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Just answer three quick questions, then sit back and let the algorithm work its magic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-line-items\">2. Line items<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Customize each individual service<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Line Items are at the heart of your GoProposal app. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is where you can configure your services and adjust prices suggested by the Pricing Wizard to suit your business, all within a user-friendly design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Present a detailed breakdown of each service and associated costs during your client meeting, eliminating confusion and instilling confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Line Items page is fully flexible, allowing you to adjust fees, hide and remove irrelevant services, and duplicate or add new services from scratch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-service-schedules\">3. Service schedules<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Automated Service Schedules tailored to each client<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our Service Schedules feature allows you to define and schedule recurring tasks and activities for each client, clearly articulating the work schedule for each service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your service schedules can then be automatically attached to each engagement letter for each client engagement, based on their selected services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Automated Service Schedules can significantly reduce time on administrative tasks, enabling your firm to handle more clients and expand your portfolio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-key-dates\">4. Key dates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Never miss a deadline with automated Key Dates<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To help you manage the Service Schedule, it\u2019s important to set clear expectations with each client regarding when they need to provide you with the necessary information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For each service, provide exact deadline information aligned with the filing deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Automating Key Dates minimizes the risk of missed deadlines and penalties, ultimately reducing client dissatisfaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By sticking to key dates consistently, you can operate with precision and reliability, helping you reduce workload bottlenecks throughout the year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-proposal-and-engagement-letter-templates\">5. Proposal and engagement letter templates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Fully customizable templates for your most important contracts<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most valuable features in GoProposal is its Proposal Templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The template you choose will determine how your proposal document looks, the email your client will receive, and other key elements like testimonials and graphics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along with customizable Letters of Engagement Templates, you can effortlessly create documents that are both professional and persuasive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know you can create multiple templates? <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This allows you to tailor your proposals to different niches you might work with or specific services you\u2019re providing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By leveraging these templates, you can showcase your firm&#8217;s expertise, outline services and deliverables, and present pricing options in a visually appealing format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These details create a world-class, memorable experience for your clients that sets you apart from other accounting firms they encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-integrations\">6. Integrations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Sync all your accounting apps cohesively<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GoProposal integrates with your favorite accounting software to create a seamless, efficient experience for you, your client, and your team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Connect with a wide range of accounting, practice management, and payment platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy a synchronized workflow, gain valuable insights into your business and client performance, and ensure that the services you\u2019re quoting for are always accurate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-contact-hub\">7. Contact hub<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>A central hub for all client and prospect data<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Imagine having another team member dedicated to maintaining all client and prospect data, ensuring it\u2019s live and up to date in one central hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That\u2019s what the Contact Hub can do for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All client-related information, communication, and history are consolidated in one place. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having a comprehensive view of each client enables your team to provide personalized service, identify upsell opportunities, and nurture relationships.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Filter your list of prospects to easily monitor your sales pipeline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Contact Hub does the heavy lifting, supporting lead growth by helping you manage scope, increase revenue, and minimize risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-8-create-proposal\">8. Create Proposal<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Generate world-class proposals<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With all the groundwork set up, you can now enter client and prospect meetings with confidence, wowing them by drawing up their proposal in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While many firms keep their pricing methodology confidential, making clients wait hours, days, or even weeks to receive a proposal, you can work on the proposal collaboratively, showing each client your true value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our intuitive wizard makes selecting services, setting pricing, and customizing content easy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The software handles the details, creating compelling proposals and freeing you up to confidently communicate your expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This fosters a strong relationship from the start as they collaborate with you to agree on every service they need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-final-thoughts\">Final thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">GoProposal was specifically designed for accountants and bookkeepers, helping you market your services and showcase the value you provide to clients. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a tool that streamlines your operations so you can focus on the work you do best, but there\u2019s more. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can join a community of like-minded accountants who are courageous business leaders, supporting each other, challenging the status quo, and striving to excel in an ever-competitive market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Still unsure if GoProposal is right for you?
