Packaging Services Into Repeatable Offers — Template

Goal: Turn custom, time-based work into a repeatable, sellable package that’s easier to price, sell, and delegate.

Use this worksheet to define the outcome, list deliverables, map milestones, set boundaries, and estimate pricing. The form saves your answers so you can reuse, tweak, or export them into proposals.

Quick pricing guidance: start with estimated hours × hourly rate = estimated cost. To achieve a target margin, divide cost by (1 − margin). Add a contingency (5–15%) for uncertainty. Example: 40 hrs × $100/hr = $4,000 cost. For a 25% margin: price = 4,000 / (1 - 0.25) = $5,333. Add contingency if needed.

Give this package a short, client-friendly name you can reference in proposals (e.g., 'Website Launch Package').
Write a one-sentence description of the measurable outcome or change the client will get. This drives scope and expectations.
Select the items included in this package. Edit for your business.
Be specific — use the same wording later in scope language.
Sketch milestone names, deliverables, and approximate dates or durations. Example: Discovery (Week 1) → Design (Weeks 2–3) → Build (Weeks 4–6) → Launch (Week 7).
Total hours you expect to spend on the work (internal estimate).
Your internal blended hourly rate for the work. Used to estimate cost before converting to fixed price.
Enter your desired margin as a percent (e.g., 25). Use the example in the introduction to compute price.
Optional contingency percentage to cover scope uncertainty (typical 5–15).
Compute using: fixed price = (estimated_hours × hourly_rate) / (1 - (desired_margin/100)). Then add contingency: price × (1 + contingency/100). Paste the resulting value here so it's recorded with the package.
Edit to reflect the selected deliverables and milestones. Use clear boundaries to avoid scope creep.
How the client will know the work is complete (e.g., 'Client accepts final site after UAT and 3 minor revisions').
A short clause you can paste into proposals to handle changing scope or additional requests.
Note which tasks you will delegate to contractors or tools (e.g., copywriting, testing, graphic assets). This helps you price and operationalize delivery.
Choose the pricing model you will offer. Packaged offers often work best as fixed price with clear boundaries, or as retainers for ongoing services.
Short paragraph you can paste into the proposal explaining why this package is valuable to the client.
Mark yes when scope, price and clauses are finalized.
