02

Prepare for discovery

03

Move from conversation to proposal

Adapt the Freelance Proposal Template and Follow-Up Email Scripts to the opportunity, then keep the next action in your tracker.

Client Acquisition dashboard with pipeline stages, lead sources and overdue follow-up totals
Actual workbook preview. Example data is illustrative.

The dashboard shows active leads, pipeline value, won clients and overdue follow-ups. Tables organize leads by stage and source, so you can review where conversations stand without reading every CRM row.
