What to do if you get a quote request

Getting a quote request on SkillScoop is a great sign — it means a potential client is interested in your services.

Read the Job Details Carefully

When you receive a quote request, the client is inviting you to respond to a specific job. Click on the job to review the full details:

  • Job description
  • Timeframe
  • Budget
  • Payment method (Direct payment or Hassle-Free)

Craft a Quote

Once you’re happy with the job details, click “Send a Quote” to begin your proposal. Here’s what to include:

  • Set your price: Choose a fair rate that aligns with the job scope and your expertise. Keep in mind client’s set price
  • Write a message: Briefly explain why you’re a great fit, highlighting your relevant experience or skills.
  • Add any extra value: Include anything that will reassure the client and help them feel confident in hiring you.

Submit with Confidence

Before hitting submit, double-check your spelling, your price, and your message. This quote is your first impression, so make sure it’s polished and professional. Once sent, the client will be notified and can view your quote along with others.

What Happens Next?

After you submit your quote, the client may:

  • Choose you as a specialist for the job.
  • Message you with follow-up questions or requests for more details.
  • Take time to review all quotes before making a decision.

Reminder: Sending a quote doesn’t guarantee the job, but it puts you in the running. The more thoughtful and well-targeted your quotes are, the better your chances of landing the job.
