Who each tool is for
Better Proposals
Strong ChoiceBest for: Solo consultants and freelancers who want fast proposal-to-signature flow.
Why pick it: Fastest path from blank page to signed proposal. Built-in payment collection (Stripe, PayPal) means you can collect deposits on the same page.
Watch for: Limited contract management features. If you need separate contracts with legal clauses, pair with PandaDoc or use Bonsai instead.
Loom
Strong ChoiceBest for: Consultants onboarding clients, explaining deliverables, or replacing status update meetings.
Why pick it: A 3-minute Loom replaces a 30-minute meeting. View tracking shows you which clients watched and which need a nudge.
Watch for: If your clients prefer live interaction for everything, async video adds friction instead of removing it.
