Proposal Terms & Conditions
Setting up your Terms & Conditions is super simple. One of the great features of Tinsel CRM is having the ability to set up multiple versions of your Terms & Conditions. This is helpful for those who may have different Terms & Conditions for different services offered (Christmas Lighting, Patio Lighting, Event Lighting) or for businesses that have different Terms & Conditions for commercial clients versus residential clients.
