AI quote template from your job notes

A quote email does two jobs. It shows the price, and it sets expectations. When the email lists what is included, what you would quote separately, and what the price depends on, the customer knows exactly what they are saying yes to. Scope edges are the jobs nearby that you would quote separately if they come up.

Prompt to copy

You are helping me write a quote email to a customer.
Use only the facts and prices I give below. Where a fact is missing, write [ASK OWNER] in that spot.

My business profile: [paste your profile]
Job notes: [paste your notes, with [Customer] and [Address] in place of real details]
My prices, exactly as I want them shown: [item: amount]
My total: [total]
Quote valid until: [date]
Deposit terms, word for word: [terms]

Write a friendly quote email under 200 words with these parts:
1. One line thanking [Customer] for the visit.
2. What's included (bullet list).
3. Scope edges: work I would quote separately if it comes up (bullet list).
4. Assumptions this price depends on (bullet list).
5. My prices and my total, exactly as written above.
6. The validity date and deposit terms, word for word.
7. One clear next step to say yes.

After the email, list every number and date you used, each marked "from my notes" or "ask owner".

Starter notes to paste:

My business profile: A two-person house painting business. Interior and exterior painting. Friendly, plain tone, and short emails.
Job notes: Visited [Customer] at [Address]. Paint the living room and the hallway: walls and ceilings, two coats. Patch two small nail holes in the hallway. [Customer] moves the furniture to the middle of each room before we start. Quote separately if it comes up: trim and doors, and any wall repair beyond the two holes. The price assumes the walls are dry and sound, and the colors stay as chosen at the visit.
My prices, exactly as I want them shown: Living room, walls and ceiling: $650. Hallway, walls and ceiling, with patching: $300.

Hi [Customer], your invoice [Invoice #] is WAY overdue. I need the [Amount] now. This is the second time I've had to ask and honestly it's not ok. Please pay asap.

Common questions

Do I need a paid AI tool?

No. Popular AI chat tools work, such as ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, or Grok. A paid plan can give you more advanced models, more features, and higher limits, but you can do every lesson without one.

How long does it take?

Each lesson runs 15 or 20 minutes. Work through the 36 lessons at your own pace.

How do I get in?

Sign in at members.siqwes.com with the email you used to pay. Your lessons are under My courses.

What will I make with AI for my small business?

You'll practice real tasks: a reply bank for the questions customers ask most, a quote email with your own prices, personal replies to your reviews, and a polite invoice reminder ladder.

Will the AI set my prices or make promises for me?

No. You type your own prices into every quote, and you confirm every number and date before a reply goes out. For hard messages, you decide first, and a saved guardrail block keeps the draft to your decision.

Can AI respond to Google reviews?

It can draft a reply, and you post it yourself. Lesson 3.1 has you write 3 replies, positive, mixed, and tough, from the review text and one fact from your side. You delete any detail the reviewer left out, run a second-pass check, and post each reply by hand on Google Business Profile.
