Package, do not quote

Instead of "message me for a quote", sell clear packages: "3 logo concepts, 2 rounds of changes, final files in 5 days, $250". Buyers decide faster when the price and result are clear.

Define the scope

For each package say what is included, what is not, how many revisions, the delivery time, and what you need from the buyer. On Sellabo, service checkouts ask the buyer to describe what they need, and you get their details by email.

Get paid upfront

Taking payment at checkout protects your time. For big projects, sell a deposit package (for example 50%) and a final payment package.

Deliver, then ask for a review

Mark the order delivered on the Orders page and ask for a testimonial. Real reviews from real clients are your best sales tool.
