Let customers speak for us
from 204 reviewsI was skeptical about another 'business toolkit' but this is different. Everything from client onboarding to offboarding is covered. I stopped losing things in my inbox.
I've tried building my own processes from scratch three times. CBOS gave me a framework that was ready to use from day one — and flexible enough to actually fit how I work.

Client Proposal Template
Brand Book
Easy to use, perfect for clients. Def get it!!
I purchased this template to try and win a cool project. In the end the job was offered to me and so instead I used it to present my concepts. A time saver! Also all three concepts were approved. lol. So a 100% success rate. I love how it saves time with copywriting AND design.
Amazing value as always - thank you Eden and Penelope!
I didin't even know I should charge by package and not by hour...lol. Oh well now I know
really can't ask for much more
I've used a heap of other templates before (mainly free) but this one actually had real content inside that I could copy/ adjust. Been following these guys for a while and I now know it was for good reason.
seriously game changing - I know exactly what I'm sending all the people wanting to work with me in my dms
It’s like these templates read my mind. They make me look like a genius to my clients.
I had to submit my portfolio to an agency with very little time. Using this tool allowed me to spend more time collating my best work, so thanks for the gentle push and helping hand. Here is to landing not one, but hopefully two new clients for 2025!
First of all, you guys are incredible!
Thanks again for helping me with the payment issue, so I could get the bundle.
I must say that I jumped straight into work as soon as I got the bundle, and it helped me go so much faster. I could send proposals and start my branding strategies at the same time, and I really needed that.
The templates are clean, easy to use AND to understand thanks to Boring Schools layers. You learn and you apply at the same time, what esle could we ask for?
Thanks again Boring Studios!
