Welcome to our forum!

Can you explain to us your process you are planning? How will you use the template when you approach people?

like i dont want some huge big paper i just want to introduce myself. give them my rates, what i will be performing, the options like if they want it bagged, edged, etc, and then like a spot to sign and then i also want one that i can ask if i could take over their lawn mowing this year, like some close friends of ours have someone else doing their lawn and i want to formally approach them through a letter and ask if i can do it.

I'd suggest, just go through the free templates and download a few of the estimate templates. That should get you started. Then as you grow, you can create a larger more colorful sales presentation and offer more upsells.

Keep me posted if you find something in there that you like.

Free Lawn Care Estimate & Proposal Forms

All of the templates.
