What's in your Bid Packet?

When you do an estimate, do you just hand/fax them a sheet of paper with a number on it or do you prepare a bid packet?

Also, what do you include in your bid packet? Quick Company Bio, experience, etc..?

We usually send our proposal along with our insurance cert. This does two things: lets them know we are serious. It also lets them check to make sure our policy is sufficient.

I have a formal estimate form letter that I use with each bid, with new clients I will add some company info and an ins. form.
