What should a professional quotation include?
A professional quotation should include your company name and contact information, the client's name and billing address, a unique quote number and issue date, a valid-until date, an itemized list of products or services with quantities and unit prices, a subtotal, any applicable tax and discounts, a grand total, and your payment terms or notes. Clear, itemized quotes reduce disputes and build trust before any work begins.
Quotation vs estimate vs invoice vs proposal
A quotation is a fixed-price commitment; once accepted, the price is binding. An estimate is an approximate cost that may change as scope becomes clearer. An invoice is a payment request sent after work is completed or goods are delivered. A proposal is a broader document covering approach, methodology, and pricing for complex engagements, often leading to a formal quotation once scope is agreed. For most business transactions, a clear quotation followed by an invoice is all you need.
When to upgrade from a free quotation tool to quoting software
A free tool works well for occasional, one-off quotes. When you find yourself re-typing the same client information repeatedly, losing track of which quotes are open or accepted, dealing with inconsistent pricing across your team, or needing customers to accept digitally, it's time to move to dedicated quoting software. SilkQuote for Salesforce handles all of this for free: it pulls your CRM data automatically, lets you build reusable quote templates, and gives customers a hosted page where they can review and accept in one click.

What is the difference between a quote and an invoice?
A quotation is a price offer sent before a sale that tells the customer what something will cost, typically valid for a set period. An invoice is sent after the work is done or goods are delivered, requesting payment for an agreed amount.
Can I add my company logo to the quote?
The free online tool uses text-based company details rather than an uploaded logo. For fully branded quotes with your logo and custom colors, SilkQuote lets you build reusable PDF templates with complete brand control inside Salesforce.
How do I download the quote as a PDF?
Click the "⬇ Download / Print PDF" button, then choose "Save as PDF" in your browser's print dialog (Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Safari all support this). The site header, footer, and toolbar are hidden automatically so only the quote document prints.

How is this different from Salesforce CPQ or SilkQuote?

What is the difference between a quotation and an estimate?
A quotation is a fixed price commitment; once accepted, both parties are bound to the agreed amount. An estimate is an approximate cost that may change as the scope of work becomes clearer. Use a quotation when you know exactly what you're delivering; use an estimate when there are unknowns that could affect the final cost.
