Quote Template
A quote gives a potential client a clear estimate before work begins or goods are supplied. This template helps Canadian freelancers and small businesses describe the requested work, list estimated line items, set a quote number, show a valid-until date, add optional tax, and explain terms or assumptions. Use it before an invoice when the price still needs client acceptance.
What this template is for
A complete, editable starting point
Use this to send a pricing estimate before a client approves a project, order, service, or scope of work.
A quote may or may not be binding depending on wording, acceptance, contract terms, and local law. Use clear terms.
How to use it
- Enter business and client details.
- Add estimated line items and rates.
- Set a valid-until date and terms before downloading.
Common questions
Is a quote the same as an invoice?
No. A quote estimates price before approval; an invoice requests payment after goods or services are provided.
Should I add an expiry date?
Yes. A valid-until date helps protect pricing when costs, availability, or schedules change.
Should I list assumptions?
Yes. Assumptions and exclusions help prevent scope misunderstandings.
