About Us | Proposify
We're on a mission to make every deal a closed deal.
At Proposify, we're revolutionizing the closing process.
We believe that proposals shouldn’t be painful.
We believe that every sales rep should have the control and visibility needed to dominate their deals.
We believe that it should be easy for sales teams to create, send, track, and close customized, interactive, beautifully designed proposals.
We believe that the more intel you have about how your prospect is interacting with your proposal, the easier it is to close the deal.
We know that the faster your prospect gets your proposal, the faster they’ll sign it, and the faster you’ll get paid. We’re here to help speed up every step of that process.
We believe that you can double your close rate and we’ll show you how to do it.
How it started
Co-founders Kyle Racki and Kevin Springer spent years toiling over proposals as employees, freelancers, sales reps, and agency owners. Kyle, a designer by trade, and Kevin, a sales veteran, knew there had to be a better way.
2007
In 2007, Kyle had an idea. What if there was a way to make a software-as-a-service product like Basecamp, but for proposals?
2014
After much bloody prototyping, sweaty coding, and admittedly the odd tear, Kevin and Kyle sold their web design agency to focus 100% on developing what was to become Proposify. The company raises a $250,000 seed investment.
2015
Proposify finds product-market fit and begins rapidly acquiring customers and scaling revenue.
2018
Proposify launches version 2 of our software and raise a $3M funding round. Begins building out a sales team and moving upmarket.
2020
Proposify raises a round of investment with CBGF across two tranches.
2022
We begin building version 3 of Proposify software to deliver a faster, more reliable service.
2024
The team celebrates our ten year anniversary and launches Proposify 3 in closed beta.

Our values
We honour the sales profession
We respect the craft of sales and those who make it their career. We recognize that sales is a tough job, and we strive to elevate the profession. We don’t disparage or look down on sales reps - everything we do is to make them more successful.
We choose optimism
We focus on the opportunity, not the roadblocks stopping us. We focus on the future, not the past. We identify problems and focus on solutions. We don’t bring our co-workers and ourselves down by dwelling on what we can’t control. We’re confident in our abilities to make big things happen.
We're radically candid.
We practice radical candor by challenging directly while caring personally. We're real with each other and openly discuss problems respectfully, never sugarcoating the truth or burying our head in the sand. Clear is kind. Radical candor goes in all directions, top-down, bottom-up, side-by-side. It's how we grow.
We build the plane while flying it.
We move fast, learn as we go, and build, ship, fix, repeat. Perfection is the enemy of done. We’re always in a forward momentum. When faced with a decision we bias towards action. We know that inertia equals crash and burn. We don’t build in a vacuum. We know that the only way to learn is to ship.
We experiment constantly
We're experimental and embrace failure as a way to learn, minimize risk and stay innovative. We use data to make informed decisions but we aren’t a slave to it. Sometimes a leap of faith is required. We’re hungry to make things better and continually test our assumptions. We know that this is the path to innovation, growth, and results, and to do otherwise is to settle for mediocrity.
We start with a full trust battery.
We are anti-cynics. Unless proven otherwise, we believe that everyone in our company has the best intentions and can be relied on. We trust their expertise and experience, and respect their perspective. Trust is assumed, not earned.
Our commitments
Diversity
In addition to racism of all forms, Proposify does not support or tolerate sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or bigotry and we’re committed to actively eliminating any form of discrimination or prejudice in our workplace.
Careers
Content in columns should typically be shorter and more skimmable. One to two sentence paragraphs is a good standard for the right amount of content.
