Service Quote Templates: Good/Better/Best That Convert
A practical guide to building upsell-friendly quotes your clients will actually accept — faster. Includes examples you can copy.
Why Good/Better/Best Works
Three clear options reduce friction, anchor value, and make upgrades feel like a logical step rather than a hard sell. Your clients pick the package that fits — and often choose the middle or top tier when value is obvious.
- Anchoring: The top tier sets perceived value for everything below it.
- Clarity: Scope is explicit; fewer back-and-forth questions.
- Self-serve upsell: Clients add options without sales pressure.
Template Structure You Can Reuse
- Brief project summary — one or two sentences with goal + constraints.
- Three packages — Good (baseline), Better (most popular), Best (premium).
- Optional add‑ons — small upgrades clients can toggle on.
- Terms — scope, timeline, payment, and guarantees.
- Instant acceptance — sign + pay to lock the scope.

Checklist: Make Your Templates Convert
- State the outcome first (“what they get”), not the tasks.
- Mark the middle tier as Most Popular and show why.
- Use plain language bullets; keep each to one line.
- Price each tier clearly; avoid ranges on the same line.
- Offer 2–4 add‑ons that pair naturally with each package.
- Remove print‑sign‑scan; add e‑signature and instant acceptance.
