Purpose
This page explains how a sent proposal turns into a sold job once the customer pays the Site Assessment Deposit (SAD).
Who owns it
CSR (Danielle), with the Door Expert (Phil) supporting the customer conversation.
Trigger
A proposal has been sent from /workbench and the customer is ready to move forward.
Steps
- Share the customer-facing proposal link (
/p/$snapshotId) if the customer needs to review it again. - Confirm the customer's chosen payment option: Financing (12 months, 0% interest), Full Project (50/50), or Discounted (100% down).
- If the customer chooses the discounted option, a manager must approve using the Approve 100% down with discount button, typically from the
/approvalsqueue. - Send the payment link (
/pay/...) to the customer for the Site Assessment Deposit. - Confirm payment on
/payments. - Once the SAD is paid, the job is automatically marked sold — verify the pipeline stage on
/opportunitiesupdates to reflect this. - If a correction is needed after the fact (wrong pricing, wrong scope), reverse ("unsell") the job and re-issue a corrected proposal rather than editing the existing one.
Done when
The SAD payment shows as completed on /payments and the opportunity's stage on /opportunities reads sold.
Handoff to
Dispatcher, who places the job into the dispatch queue — see /help/workflows/site-assessment-scheduling.
Common mistakes
- Sending a payment link before the discount approval is granted for 100% down deals.
- Assuming the job is sold just because a proposal was sent — it's only sold once the SAD is actually paid.
- Trying to edit an immutable proposal instead of reversing and re-issuing.
- Forgetting to check
/approvals, which is not linked in the sidebar and can be easy to overlook.
Note: /approvals is a real queue but it is not in the sidebar navigation. Managers should bookmark it directly.
