  • The template name
  • How many quotes are currently using the template
  • When the template was last updated

Default Templates

Every company has one default template. The default template is:
  • Automatically applied to new quotes when they’re created
  • Marked with a star icon and “Default” badge
  • Protected from deletion (you must set another template as default first)
When you create your first template, it automatically becomes the default. You can change the default template at any time, and only one template can be the default at once.

Tips for Using Templates

Consider creating different templates for different types of events or services. For example:
  • “Wedding Package” with romantic imagery and wedding-focused testimonials
  • “Corporate Event” with professional photos and business testimonials
  • “Coffee Service” with product-focused images
Give your templates clear, descriptive names so you can easily identify which one to use for each quote. Good examples:
  • “Premium Wedding Package”
  • “Corporate Catering”
  • “Festival & Large Events”
Always preview your templates in mobile view to ensure they look good on all devices. Many customers will view quotes on their phones.
Regularly review and update your templates to ensure they reflect your current branding and offerings. Update testimonials and images seasonally.
Add testimonials that are relevant to the type of quote you’re sending. Wedding testimonials for wedding templates, corporate testimonials for business templates.
