Project Scope Checklist
The questions to nail down before you quote, so scope creep doesn't quietly eat your margin.
Why this matters
Scope creep rarely arrives as one dramatic request — it's usually five small "can you also just..." messages that each seem reasonable alone. The fix isn't saying no more often; it's making the boundaries explicit before work starts, so both sides have something to point back to.
Work through the checklist on the right before you send a quote. Anything you can't answer yet is a question to ask the client first.
Once you've worked through this, turn the numbers into a price with the Project Quote Calculator, and put the answers in writing with the Contract Template.
