This free tiered quote builder helps you work out a three-tier quote with good, better and best options side by side, so a client can choose a level instead of a yes or no. It runs fully in your browser, needs no account, and gives a clear answer in seconds, so you can stop guessing and start with numbers you can trust. It is made for small business owners and freelancers, not for accountants, and every field is explained in plain words on the tool itself.
To use it, fill in the fields above and press the button. The tool checks your numbers, runs the calculation, and shows the result right below the tool. If a number looks wrong, change it and press the button again. Nothing is saved on a server, and you can use the tool as many times as you like, for one client or for many.
It starts from your good tier price and raises it by the two uplift percentages you enter, so the better tier is the base price multiplied by one plus the first percentage over 100, and the best tier uses the second percentage the same way. The three prices stay linked to one base, which keeps the gap between tiers honest and stops the top tier from drifting into a number you cannot explain.
For example, a good price of 500 with uplifts of 25 and 60 percent gives 625 for better and 800 for best. With uplifts of zero and 50 percent on a base of 100, the better tier equals the good tier at 100 and the best tier is 150, which shows why the middle uplift should always be a real step up.
Reading the result is simple: take the headline figure as your starting point, then check it against what you know about the real job. Prices, distances and payment habits all change from one client to the next, so a tool result is a strong guide, not a promise, and your own judgement still matters for the final decision.
Make the middle tier the one you most want to sell, by giving it the best balance of value and price, because most clients avoid both the cheapest and the most expensive option. Name exactly what each tier includes, since a tier difference the client cannot see feels like a trick rather than a choice.
A common mistake is trusting a single calculation and never checking it again. Re-run the tool when prices change, when a client changes the scope, or when a payment arrives late, because stale numbers quietly lead to undercharging and awkward conversations. Keep a short note of each result with the client name and the date, so you can explain any figure later without searching through old messages.
Over the next few weeks, use this tool as part of a simple weekly routine. Set aside a short time each week to update your figures, chase anything overdue, and review what the numbers are telling you about your business. A pattern over several weeks is far more useful than one good or bad day, because it shows which clients pay on time, which jobs earn well, and where your time actually goes. Small steady habits, repeated every week, build a business that is easier to run and easier to grow, and this tool is meant to make one small part of that routine faster and clearer.
This tool gives estimates for everyday business planning only and does not replace professional financial or tax advice. Use it to plan, to compare and to keep clear records, and ask a qualified professional when a decision involves large sums, contracts or tax rules. Try it with your own numbers now, and come back whenever a new invoice, quote or payment needs a quick, honest answer.
