Cómo Funcionan las Propuestas de XBuild: De Presupuesto a Contrato Firmado en 5 Minutos
The Old Way: Estimate Today, Proposal Tomorrow, Close Next Week
Most contractors follow the same painful workflow:
- Visit the job site
- Take measurements and photos
- Go back to the office
- Spend 1-2 hours building the estimate
- Create a proposal in a separate tool
- Email it to the homeowner
- Wait days for a response
- Chase the signature
By the time you send the proposal, the homeowner has already gotten 2-3 other quotes. You're competing on price instead of speed and professionalism.
The XBuild Way: Close on Site
XBuild compresses this entire workflow into a single visit:
- Generate the estimate — describe the project to XBuild's AI, upload measurements
- Review and adjust — make changes in conversation, update pricing, add options
- Create the proposal — one click turns your estimate into a branded, professional proposal
- Present Good/Better/Best options — give the homeowner choices that increase your average ticket
- Collect the signature — built-in e-sign, no separate tool needed
- Collect payment — take a deposit or full payment on the spot
Total time: 5 minutes from estimate to signed proposal.
What's Inside an XBuild Proposal?
Every XBuild proposal includes:
- Project scope with clear descriptions of the work
- Good/Better/Best pricing options to maximize deal value
- Material specifications with real supplier pricing
- Site photos from the inspection
- Terms and conditions customized to your business
- E-signature block for instant signing
- Payment collection for deposits or full payment
Good/Better/Best: Why It Works
Offering tiered options is one of the most effective sales strategies in contracting. XBuild makes it automatic:
- Better — mid-range with upgraded materials or extended warranty
- Best — premium option with top-tier materials and full coverage
Studies show that 60-70% of homeowners choose the middle option, which means your average ticket goes up without any extra selling effort.
E-Sign and Payments: No More Chasing
The biggest deal killer in contracting is the gap between "I'm interested" and "sign here." Every hour that passes, the close rate drops.
XBuild eliminates this gap:
- Payment collection lets you take a deposit immediately via Stripe
- Automatic receipts are sent to both parties
No more emailing PDFs, waiting for DocuSign, or chasing checks.
Real-Time Supplier Pricing
Every estimate in XBuild uses live pricing from ABC Supply, SRS, and QXO. This means:
- Material costs reflect today's market
- No more guessing or using outdated price books
Team Performance Tracking
For companies with multiple sales reps, XBuild includes a team leaderboard and My Business dashboard:
- Track proposal-to-close ratios
- Identify top performers and coaching opportunities
- Monitor revenue across your entire team
The Result: More Deals, Less Admin
Contractors using XBuild report:
- Higher close rates — professionalism and speed build homeowner confidence
- Less admin work — no separate tools for estimates, proposals, e-sign, and payments
- Higher average tickets — Good/Better/Best options increase deal value
