How to price a grooming job with photos and branded PDFs

Photograph the coat, pick hours or per-pet rates, then send a branded PDF before the appointment fills. Here is a ClipQuote pricing loop.

Key takeaways

• Photos of coat or hooves reduce disputes after the groom.
• Choose hours, pets, or job rates to match how you actually charge.
• Use day-fill tools so the schedule and the quote stay aligned.
• A branded PDF looks more professional than a texted number.

Show the condition, then show the price

A grooming price is easier to defend when the client saw the coat first. ClipQuote by Knox Studios keeps photos and line items on the same quote.

A four-step pricing loop

• Photograph coat or hooves so both of you agree on starting condition.
• Open ClipQuote and price by hours, pets, or a job rate.
• Use groom-time or hoof-care tools if the animal needs extra work.
• Export a branded PDF and send it before the next appointment starts.

Keep the day honest

Day-fill helpers help you see whether the quote still fits the calendar. Get ClipQuote on Google Play.
