Team accounts can now customize their domains:
Proposable Team subscribers now have the option of branding their Proposable domains! For example, instead of having “Yourcompany.Proposable.com”, you can now create a domain that’s connected to your website, like “Quotes.Yoursite.com”. This completes the branding experience for your recipients and removes “Proposable.com” from your proposal URL’s.
This new feature can be found in “Settings” under the “My Business” tab and will involve some manual setup. You will be asked to add a new Cname record for the domain that you want to point to your proposable account. Examples of custom domains would be, “sales.yourcompany.com”, or “quotes.yourcompany.com”, etc. This is just one more reason why Proposable is the leading Proposal software solution for businesses everywhere.

Replacement Tags
We have now added support for inserting replacement tags into your proposal templates. These tags are in the form, {{recipient_first_name}}, and allow you to set a “placeholder” tag within proposal sections that will automatically be replaced with your recipient’s information, saving you additional steps that are normally taken to customize recipient info across your proposal sections.
New Proposal Status Selector
We have added a new proposal status category for those proposals that have been “declined” by your recipients. This new “status” selector can be accessed from the top toolbar when you view a proposal. This new “declined” status filter has also been added to the dashboard beneath the “accepted” filter for quick access.

The dawn of the computer age brought with it new ways to connect with each other like never before. Word processors and spreadsheets made collaborative work faster and easier, and businesses began to thrive using these new digital tools. Then came the growth of the Internet, further connecting individuals and companies by making communication instantaneous and breaking down the boundaries of time and place. When the first generation of cell phones emerged onto the scene, the workplace was redefined as a space existing beyond buildings and offices.
Our lives and media devices have become increasingly mobile. We’re a culture constantly on the move, even when we do business, and there isn’t always time to sit around a computer to get things done. Our phones are evolving, becoming smarter than ever and able to handle virtually any task. It’s disconnecting us from the confines of our desks and cubicles, and it’s a good thing. Here’s the problem: our old models of digital and collaborative work that used to be cutting-edge are no longer adequate to meet the needs of our on-the-go lifestyle.
The mobile revolution is upon us, and your business tools should reflect these changes. If you’re still using proposal software that doesn’t fit into your mobile lifestyle, you may find yourself falling behind. Proposable’s mobile features allow you to stay connected even when you’re not at your desk by sending real time updates to your phone showing you who is interacting with your proposals. Now with Proposable, your proposal software isn’t restricted to your desktop. This instant feedback translates to shorter sales cycles and more effective, informed sales communication.
The mobile revolution is accelerating business at a rapid rate. Don’t let your current proposal system leave you in the dust. Connect and collaborate with online proposal software from Proposable, and be prepared to meet the demands of a business culture on the move.

Proposal management can be a daunting task for any business that sends out multiple proposals each month. When you have multiple people involved in the process, storage and transparency can turn into a huge nightmare for everyone involved. Where do the proposals get stored? Who’s computer has the most current proposal templates? And how can proposal performance be analyzed to increase sales?
A proposal management software solution can save your company time, empower new sales intelligence, and increase sales. First, proposal software allows proposals to be created out of a central library of pre-developed templates, improving creation-to-delivery time. Once delivered, proposals are then organized in a central file system that allows for easy access and review at any time. Sales team members and managers will both benefit from this proposal management tool. The sales team becomes empowered to create and deliver custom proposals in record time and instantly access any past proposals for review. Also, managers will have complete transparency into all proposals being created and delivered across their salesforce, allowing for better sales intelligence and decision making.
Proposable.com offers a powerful web-based proposal management tool that empowers sales teams of all sizes and in all industries.
