CollabSuite - SellUp
Proposal Package
Thank you for getting in touch. What follows is our reading of the Developer Implementation Brief you sent us.
We took each requirement in it, checked what your site does today against what the brief asks for, and worked out what it would take to close the gap. That comes to five documents and three separate estimates, with one measured scan sitting behind all of them. Start with the proposal - everything else is here so that any figure in it can be traced back to the evidence it came from.
Where to start
Read the proposal first. It runs to nine parts in plain language, with the technical detail moved into clearly marked asides rather than removed. It is written for the person making the decision, not for a specialist.
What the work comes to
The engagement on mkt.sellup.com.sg is 48–79 hours. Of that, 34–55 hours we can commit to today with nothing further needed from you. The remaining 14–24 hours waits on a single decision about access, and if you decline it the engagement simply stands at the smaller figure.
What sits outside that figure
Two further pieces of work are quoted on their own. A portal SEO module comes to 57–97 hours, and a search growth programme is broken into four estimates you can agree to one at a time (24–40, 52–92, 37–63 and 11–18 hours). Each is a separate agreement, and each can be declined without touching the others. None of these three totals is ever added to another.
Why you can check every number
Twelve of our claims were measured directly against your live site, with a crawl of 451 URLs sitting behind them. Where the crawl contradicted us, we corrected our own finding rather than the page - one was withdrawn outright, and the discovery scan says which and why.

How the five documents relate
2 audiences · 1 evidence base · 2 separate agreements
The proposal and the delivery view carry identical numbers - only the language differs, so a non-technical reader and a developer can be given the same estimate without either being handed the wrong document. The two dashed items are agreed separately and are never added into the 48–79 h.
What each document is
In the order we would send them. Every band traces back to a work item, and every work item to a clause in your brief.

Proposal - for the person making the decision
Nine parts. No jargon in the body; the technical detail is demoted into visibly-secondary "for your developer" asides rather than deleted. Carries the three options, twelve checks you can run yourself, eight things we are not doing, and the one outcome nobody can honestly promise.
Delivery view - for your developer or CTO to audit
Eleven parts. The same twelve work items split by discipline, the dependency register, the milestone roll-up, and the factors that would move the number - each marked according to whether we measured it or are assuming it. Offer this for technical review before signing, not after.

Portal SEO module - twelve mockup screens
A product design for an SEO module inside your own portal, so your team manages titles, descriptions, canonicals and schema without a developer. The SEO analysis dashboard, seven content-type list screens and three detail screens. The design already exists - the 57–97 h estimate was sized against these screens, which is why each of its eight items names the screens it came from.
Growth programme - research, content, off-page, measurement
Six parts, and four separate estimates - research (24–40 h), content (52–92 h), off-page (37–63 h) and measurement (11–18 h) - each sized, footed and agreed on its own, exactly as the portal module is. None of it is in your brief - that is an engineering spec for one property, this is research, content and earned media. Five of its fourteen items are priced per unit, so you set the volumes and the total follows arithmetically. Includes a 58-point ecommerce SEO checklist with the seventeen items our scans already verified as done, and the evidence for each.
How the work would run - kick-off to handover
4 stages · 4 slots · 48–79 h
Four stages, and every one answers the same four questions: what SellUp gives, what we do, what must pass before the stage is left, and what you get to keep. Nothing touches your live site until stage 1’s gate has re-confirmed the estimate - the highlighted cell. The two DEAL cells need access we do not yet have; decline both and the engagement is 34–55 h, not 48–79 h. Both the proposal and the delivery view carry these four stages in more detail.
And one page that is not a document

How payment works
7 milestones · 50 / 50 each
A deposit on every milestone, not one deposit for the whole engagement. Each milestone is invoiced in two equal halves - 50% when it begins and 50% when you sign it off - and the percentages are of that milestone’s own agreed value, not of the total. The engagement has 4 milestones and the portal module 3; all of them are invoiced this way. Nothing is invoiced part-way through a milestone.
