5 steps. The final node is the artifact you end up with.

What this does

This workflow keeps proposals from disappearing into a polite silence. It tracks the agreed decision date, suggests a useful follow-up based on the context, and creates a stop rule so your team does not keep sending messages that make a good relationship feel transactional.

It is useful for consultancies, agencies, clinics with corporate partnerships, and professional firms that sell considered work rather than impulse purchases.

What you get

  • A proposal tracker with a next action for every opportunity
  • Follow-up templates for the first nudge, the useful check-in, and the respectful close
  • A calendar reminder system
  • A stop rule so no one gets chased indefinitely

Honest limits

No workflow can manufacture fit or urgency. If the prospect needs a different offer, a lower-risk first step, or more time, the right outcome may be a clear no. The system makes that easier to learn.
