Overview

Creating a quote is the starting point of every job in Estizee.
Quotes define pricing, service scope, and job conditions, and they power everything that follows—scheduling, invoicing, payments, and reminders. Estizee offers two quote types to match how you work:
  • Turbo Quote – Fast, simplified estimates
  • Advanced Quote – Detailed, rule-based pricing
You can use one or both, depending on your business model.

​
Before You Start

Before creating your first quote, make sure you have:
  • Your base rates configured
  • Your service types enabled (window cleaning, pressure washing, etc.)
  • Your pricing rules and surcharges reviewed
  • Your business info and branding set
These settings ensure accurate pricing and professional-looking quotes.
