Subject: Your project at [Location]: next steps
Hi [First Pangalan],
It was a pleasure speaking with you today. I left our call genuinely excited about [the project (e.g., reimagining the ground floor as one warm, connected space for entertaining)].
Here's what I heard is most important to you:
1. [Priority one (e.g., a calm, layered primary suite)]
2. [Priority two (e.g., a kitchen that works for a family of five)]
3. [Priority three (e.g., finished before the holidays)]
Based on that, I've prepared a proposal for full-service interior design covering [scope: space planning, sourcing, procurement, project management, styling]. You'll find the scope, our design fee, and how we work together attached.
I'd suggest we hold [start date] to begin. To reserve it, simply reply to approve the proposal and I'll send the letter of agreement and initial invoice.
Any questions at all. Call or reply anytime.
Warmly,
[Your Pangalan]
[Studio Pangalan]
