One of the advantages of working as an expert on the Cad Crowd platform is the ability to foster long-term collaborations. You can easily send your client a new contract proposal after you have completed an existing project.
You can send your client a new job contract and update the work proposed work terms for their consideration. After reviewing your new contract terms, the client may accept, decline, or modify your work proposal.
You can also propose a job contract with a new client by clicking the Propose contract link at the top of your message.

- Past clients: You can send a proposal to a client who previously hired you for a job contract and paid one or more of your invoices on Cad Crowd.
- New clients: When a potential client has found your profile with the freelancer search and sends a message to your inbox.
Client notifications for new contract proposals
The client gets an email alert and user inbox notification when you send a new job contract offer. Your proposal shows on the client’s My contracts dashboard.
The client may accept, modify, or reject your new job contract offer.
Withdraw your job contract proposal
After sending the proposal to a client, you cannot modify an existing contract proposal. You can withdraw and resend a new contract offer to the client as a workaround. In addition, you can withdraw your contract proposal if you decide to cancel your offer.
Steps to withdraw your pending contract proposal:
- Visit My applications
- Choose your proposal’s name in the Pending job offers area
- Click the Withdraw button
Note: You may send your client a new proposal after canceling a pending contract offer.
