Duplicating proposals for similar jobs

How to reuse a past proposal as the starting point for a new job.

When you do similar jobs repeatedly, duplicating an existing proposal is faster than starting from scratch.

How to duplicate

  1. 1Open the proposal you want to copy.
  2. 2Click the "..." menu (three dots) in the top right.
  3. 3Select "Duplicate Proposal".
  4. 4A copy is created with "(Copy)" added to the title.
  5. 5Update the client name, address, price, and any job-specific details.

When to duplicate vs. use a template

Duplicate a proposal when you're doing almost exactly the same job for a different client and the specific proposal content is right. Use a template when you need a starting structure that you'll customize heavily each time.

Tip: After duplicating, scan the entire proposal for client-specific details — names, addresses, and unique job notes — and update all of them before sending.

Status after duplication

Duplicated proposals always start as "Draft" — they are never automatically sent. You'll need to send the new proposal manually.
