## Get more from every document

Win festival contracts by showing organisers exactly what you'll build, when, and what it costs. Scope accordions, a staged timeline, and an itemised estimate keep every assumption visible before anyone signs.

### Get the yes without leaving the page

Your client reads the pricing, scrolls to the agreement, and signs right there. No PDF download, no printing, no waiting.

### Assemble proposals from proven sections

Pull in a hero, steps, or pricing section, then save your best-performing ones and reuse them in your next pitch.

### Your pitch looks sharp on any screen

Hero images, pricing tables, and testimonials hold their shape when a client opens your proposal on a phone between meetings.

### See which section wins the deal

Heatmaps show who lingers on pricing, and session replays let you call while the client is still thinking it over.

### Know the moment they open it

Get a ping when your client views the proposal, leaves a comment, or signs the agreement, so you reply while it's fresh.

### Write the pitch with your whole team

Your designer tweaks the hero while you tighten the pricing breakdown, both in the same proposal, live.

## See how every part fits

The proposal opens with the project and its scope, moves through your design thinking, build sequence, team and pricing, and closes on references and payment terms. Keep, drop, or reorder anything to fit the job.

### Venue Build Cover Page with Project Overview

Opens the proposal with the project name, client, 1,200-capacity Leith waterfront venue and 6 to 29 August 2027 run. Sets context immediately so the client knows exactly what the estimate covers.

### Scope, Basis and Exclusions Accordion

Expandable panels set out what is built, capacities, the 12-day build, 24 live days and 5-day clearance, plus assumptions and exclusions. Lets clients check scope before reading the price and avoids disputes.

### Design Principle Statement for Temporary Venues

An animated text statement that frames the build philosophy: a temporary building should sound permanent. Gives the proposal a memorable point of view and signals quality before the detail begins.

### Six-Stage Build Sequence and Fixed Timeline

## Find your answers

Answers to common questions about pricing, scoping, and presenting temporary venue builds to festival organisers and event producers.

### What should be included in a construction or build proposal template?

A strong build proposal includes a cover page, a clear scope of work, the guiding principle or approach, a build sequence, past builds and team credentials, and a detailed estimate. Together these sections show clients what you will deliver, how you will deliver it, who will do the work, and what it will cost.

### How do I customize this proposal template for my own projects?

Replace the placeholder text in each section with your project details, starting with the cover and scope. Update the build sequence with your actual phases and timeline, add your own past builds and team bios, and adjust the estimate line items to match your pricing. You can also swap in your logo, brand colors, and fonts for a consistent look.

### How do I write the scope and build sequence sections so clients understand them?

In the scope, list exactly what is included and excluded, using specific deliverables and measurable outcomes. In the build sequence, break the project into numbered phases with start and end dates, dependencies, and milestones. Plain language and short bullet points help clients quickly see what happens and when.

### Can I export this proposal template to PDF or Word?

Yes. You can typically export the finished proposal as a PDF for sending to clients and as an editable Word or Google Docs file for further changes. PDF keeps formatting intact and is best for final delivery, while an editable format is ideal for collaboration and revisions.

### How do I create an accurate estimate section for a build proposal?

Itemize labor, materials, subcontractors, permits, and a contingency allowance (commonly 5–15%) so clients see where costs come from. State whether pricing is fixed or time-and-materials, and include payment terms, assumptions, and how long the estimate is valid. Clear line items build trust and reduce pricing objections.
