Use the price increase feature when creating renewal proposals. Start in the Pipeline tab and filter for your Accepted proposals.
Then, select all the proposals that you wish to renew → click Renew.
Once all of your renewal proposals has been created, ensure that you review them and make any adjustments first.
Then when you are editing the renewal proposal, navigate to the Services step and the Price Increase feature will open automatically.
Select the percentage that you’d like to increase your services by and enable the rounding toggle if you prefer neater, round pricing.
Click Apply when you are done and all of your services will be increased by the percentage that you specified!
Please note: This does not increase your service library’s prices. You will need to do this separately.
Your client's experience
It’s incredibly important to communicate early and often with your customers about increased prices. Ideally, we suggest sending out an email blast to all of your clients one month before their agreement is due for renewal to advise them early.
Then, remember to include a similar email in the renewal proposal when their agreement is due for renewal.
Utilize our new email template to communicate the price increase to your clients. Select the Price Increase email template in the Presentation step of the proposal editor under the Email section.
To access and customize the email template, navigate to the Templates tab → Emails.
