LESSON 05 / 07

Give the estimate enough context.

Show the selected options and the work that remains to be confirmed.

Separate the main components

A product estimate can include a structure, accessories, and a dimension adjustment. Delivery, installation, tax, and site preparation may need separate treatment. Present these assumptions near the number so the customer can interpret it.

Show why a total changes

Connect each optional item to its effect on the estimate. Keep names consistent with the product controls. If a cost needs review, label it clearly instead of including a number that appears definitive.

Review representative examples

Check the same configurations against the calculation your team already uses. Test boundaries, combinations, and rounding. A clear price breakdown is useful only when the underlying rules have been agreed.

PUT IT INTO PRACTICE

What does the displayed total include, and what does it leave out?

Discuss this with a product specialist and a salesperson. Write down one decision your team can agree on before moving to the next lesson.
