🔧 Step-by-Step Guide: Creating a Proposal Template in Nomohub

1. Access the Admin Section

  • Go to the Admin section of Nomohub.

  • This is where you'll create and manage your templates and product catalog.


2. Start a New Proposal Template

  • Click Create New Template.

  • Name your template (e.g., “Test Shingle Template”).


3. Understand the Page Structure

Templates can contain several types of pages:

  • Cover Page: Branding and imagery

  • Quote Page: Where products and pricing go

  • Signing Page: Customer signature

  • Custom Pages: PDFs, brochures, extra details


4. Add Pages and Content

  • Use the “Add Page” option to insert custom content:

    • Upload PDFs (e.g., brochures for shingles)

    • Insert Text Sections (e.g., contract terms)

  • Rearrange pages using drag-and-drop.

  • Label custom sections (e.g., “Sectional Details”).


5. Save & Present

  • Once you’ve added your pages, click Save then Save & Present to preview your proposal.


6. Add Products to the Quote Page

  • Navigate to the Quote Page within your template.

  • Click Add Product:

    • Select your product (e.g., “Test Shingle”).

    • Set measurement to 0 so it pulls from the job data.

    • Enter waste factor and lock it if needed.

    • Choose pricing strategy:

      • Input direct cost

      • Or use markup margin

  • Save the product line.


7. Add Quote Options (Good, Better, Best)

  • Click “+ Add Option” to add alternate product options:

    • Option 1: Basic shingle

    • Option 2: Premium shingle

  • Name the options appropriately (e.g., “Better” and “Best”).

  • Input pricing and margin details for each.

  • Save each option.


8. Customize Quote Display

  • Edit quote display settings:

    • Show or hide line item totals

    • Show or hide unit pricing

  • Save your settings.


9. Use Quote Templates for Reuse

  • Go to Quote Templates under Admin.

  • Create reusable quote templates:

    • Name it (e.g., “Landmark Shingle”)

    • Add products and pricing

    • Save it


10. Insert Quote Templates into Proposal Templates

  • Go back to your Proposal Template.

  • When adding a product, select from your pre-made Quote Template.

  • This saves time by not recreating quotes each time.
