What to put on a quotation format for marketing agencies

Along with the usual header, numbering, dates and totals, marketing agencies should add:

  • Month or campaign period
  • Retainer versus ad-spend lines
  • Platform names (Meta, Google)
  • Approved creative or deliverable count

Tips for marketing agencies

  • Spell out deliverables per month, not just "social media management".
  • State who pays the ad platform directly and who owns the ad accounts.
  • Give the minimum contract period and the notice needed to stop.

Questions

Should a marketing quote include ad budget?

List the ad budget as a separate line the client pays to the platform or reimburses, and keep your fee distinct.

Is a quotation different from a proforma or tax invoice?

Yes. A quotation is an offer with a price and is not a demand for payment. A tax invoice is issued when you supply the goods or services and is the document used for GST.

Can I create this in FINTY?

Yes. FINTY numbers your documents, adds the right CGST, SGST or IGST, keeps your client list and sends the PDF on WhatsApp. There is a free plan and a 30-day trial.
