Why This Matters

Modern businesses thrive on speed and efficiency. This feature modernizes document sharing, making it faster and more intuitive. Whether you’re closing deals or collaborating on estimates, it’s designed to meet your needs while leaving a professional impression.

Benefits Your Business Can’t Ignore

Incorporating this feature into your workflow isn’t just about convenience; it’s about transforming the way you do business. Here’s a closer look at the standout benefits and how they can make a difference for you.

Improved Efficiency

Skip the email delays and get straight to the point. Share links instantly and receive feedback without the hassle of downloading and opening attachments. Imagine sending a proposal during a live conversation and receiving approval on the spot. That’s the kind of efficiency this feature unlocks.

Better Client Engagement

Your clients aren’t always glued to their inboxes. By sharing proposals on platforms they prefer—like SMS or Messenger—you’re meeting them where they already are. It’s a small gesture that shows you’re tuned in to their preferences.

Enhanced Professionalism

Your proposals represent your brand, so they need to look the part. With this feature, each link is branded and secure, leaving no room for confusion or clutter. Clients see a polished, organized experience that builds trust and confidence.

Real-Time Collaboration

Gone are the days of static, one-way documents. Share a link, and prospective clients can collaborate or provide feedback in real time. Whether it’s tweaking a cost estimate or clarifying project details, the proposal process becomes dynamic and interactive.

Streamlined Document Tracking

Keep tabs on your shared proposals with ease. The CRM marks shared detailed documents as “Sent,” and you can monitor their status in the “Waiting for Others” tab. It’s like having a bird’s-eye view of your client communication.

How to Use the Feature Like a Pro

Using this feature is straightforward, but mastering it can take your client interactions to the next level. Follow these steps to leverage its full potential and ensure a smooth experience for both you and your clients.

Step 1: Create a Proposal or Estimate

Start by crafting your proposal template or detailed estimate in the CRM. Ensure all the details are accurate and up-to-date. Add branding elements like your logo and company colors for a professional touch.

Step 2: Share via Link

Once your document is ready, click on the “Share via Link” option within the CRM. This action generates a unique link for the document.

Step 3: Generate a Unique Link for the Document

If you’re sharing the proposal content with multiple recipients, the CRM creates personalized links for each one. This ensures the right person receives the right document, maintaining confidentiality and clarity.

Step 4: Manage Shared Documents

All shared documents are automatically marked as “Sent” in your CRM. You can find them in the “Waiting for Others” tab or list view, making it easy to track their status and follow up as needed.
