Step 1 · The kitchen table

You know the price. You just can't sit down and write it.

Six jobs walked this week. Every one of them still waiting on a number, and the number gets written at nine at night.

Step 2 · The note

This is what a quote starts as.

Half abbreviated, circled twice, written on your knee. It never gets typed up.

Step 3 · Three ways in

Photo it, email it, or just talk.

Whichever one you'd have done anyway. No app, no login, no new habit.

Step 4 · The memory

It already knows your prices.

Your last 143 quotes: what you charged, what you won, what you lost. Your price book too, if you have one.

Step 5 · The draft

Thirteen minutes later: a quote you could send.

Every number comes from a job you've already done. Nothing goes to Karen until you say so.

Step 6 · The voice note

Don't like it? Tell it. Out loud.

You don't open the quote. You talk at it the way you'd talk to a foreman.

Step 7 · Rev B

Ninety seconds. Four changes. Done.

Crossed out, not quietly overwritten. You see exactly what moved.

Step 8 · What it learned

Fix it once. It remembers next time.

Three of those four changes weren't about this job. They were about how you price.

Step 9 · Same day

Your prices. In her inbox while she still cares.

Same numbers, same judgment. Days before anyone else.
