The principle

Two consultants should price the same service the same way

When everyone starts from their own file, differences appear fast: a different fee rate, a missing clause, a replacement guarantee that varies from one client to the next. The day the terms have to be applied, nobody can find the right version.

A quote built on your templates and a shared catalogue settles that. The terms come from the deal, the layout is the same across the whole agency, and the signed document stays attached to the client account.

  • Your templates : layout, legal notices, terms and conditions.
  • Your catalogue : reference services and rates, so pricing is never guesswork.
  • The thread kept intact : opportunity, quote, assignment and invoice all refer to the same deal.
In practice

The quote is built from what already exists

You start from the deal, pick the line items from the catalogue, then adjust the rate and any specific terms. The document comes out in your own layout, ready to sign.

  • Custom templates : your brand, your legal wording, your terms and conditions.
  • Service catalogue : success-fee recruitment, executive search, contracting, additional costs.
  • Online signature : the quote goes out and comes back signed, with no printing.
  • Conversion to invoice : invoicing carries over the accepted quote, in one go or in instalments.

What you gain

Price quickly, and price consistently

Six situations where quoting wastes an agency's time.

A quote in a few minutes

The line items come from the catalogue, the terms from the deal, the layout from the template. All that is left is what is specific to this client.

  • Service catalogue
  • Terms carried over from the opportunity
  • No client details to retype

The same pricing for everyone

Reference rates are shared. Two consultants no longer quote two different prices for the same service.

  • Reference rates
  • Consistent legal wording
  • Templates shared across the agency

Signing without the back and forth

The quote goes out for e-signature from the record and comes back signed to the same place. No more printing, scanning or mislaid attachments.

  • Sent from the deal
  • Request tracking
  • Document filed automatically

The invoice that follows from the quote

What was accepted becomes what is billed, in one go or on the agreed schedule. No more gap between what was sold and what is invoiced.

  • Accepted quote carried over
  • Deposit then balance
  • Attached to the assignment

The history of your proposals

Every quote stays attached to the client account. You can find what was proposed last year, at what price, and what was accepted.

  • Quotes kept by client
  • Successive versions
  • A solid basis for negotiation

An approval route

If a discount goes beyond the threshold you set, the proposal goes to an approver. The rule is configured by role, not by individual.

  • Approval before sending
  • Approver resolved by role
  • The decision on record

Frequently asked questions

What people ask us about quotes

Can we keep our own layout?
Yes. Quote templates are customisable: your brand, your legal notices and your terms and conditions. The document comes out looking like you, not like the vendor.
How are the quote line items built?
From a service catalogue you maintain: success-fee recruitment, executive search, contracting work, additional costs. The deal terms are carried over automatically.
Can the quote be signed online?
Yes, by e-signature from the record. The request status is visible and the signed document joins the client account and the assignment.
Does the quote turn into an invoice automatically?
Invoicing carries over the accepted quote, either in one go or on the agreed schedule, for example a deposit on signature then the balance when the candidate starts.
Are quotes a paid add-on?
No. Quotes, invoicing, payment schedules and signing are part of Nicoka CABS, alongside the ATS, the CRM and AI, at 130 euros per user per month.
