## Frequently asked questions

### How do I write a freelance quote?

List your deliverables as clear line items or phases with prices, add a project total, state the timeline and what is included/excluded, set payment terms (such as a 50% deposit), and add a valid-until date and an acceptance line. Keep it clean and easy to say yes to.

### Should a freelance quote include a deposit?

Yes — most freelancers require a deposit (commonly 30-50%) before starting, with the balance due on milestones or completion. State this clearly in the payment terms so expectations are set upfront.

### Is this freelance quote template free?

Yes — free to use. Describe your project and rates to the AI and it will draft the quote for you to send.
