Keep a monthly snapshot of proposal volume

A small recurring report can make proposal activity easier to keep in view.

Trigger

Recurring schedule

Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.

Action

Get Proposal Count

Tool to retrieve the total count of proposals. use when you need to know how many proposals exist.

Why this helps

Without a regular snapshot, it takes extra effort to answer a basic question about proposal volume.

  • Get a recurring count of proposals in the account.
  • Keep proposal volume visible without manually checking totals.
  • Use the report as a starting point for a review of business activity.

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect Better Proposals once in the Notis portal.
  • 2Create an automation named Monthly proposal volume snapshot.
  • 3In one instruction, ask Notis to retrieve the proposal count and report the returned total.
  • 4Choose a recurring monthly schedule and select where run reports should go.
  • 5Test with one real example using the current proposal count.

Questions about this workflow

Does this show the number of proposals created during that month only?

The action retrieves the total count of proposals. It does not provide a monthly change or historical baseline by itself.

Can I use this to compare months?

Notis can report each returned count, but a baseline or history must be retained or supplied separately for comparisons.
