How to use this
- Run discovery (the guided form) — understand the work, states, deadline, qualifier situation before quoting.
- Pick the offer (Section 1) — first match wins.
- Quote the starting price (Section 2) — these are starting CCA fees; government/exam/vendor fees are extra and passed through at cost.
- Log it in the tracker; if it says Rose, flag Rose the same day.
Prices are from the current client price list (Aug 2026) — ranges, not final quotes. They are CCA service fees only. Government filing fees, exam fees, bonds, insurance, and vendor costs (credit/background checks, postage) are separate and billed at cost. Multi-state, enterprise, franchise, and white-label are always custom — Rose quotes. Never promise a client they qualify or that a license will be approved — that's a determination, not a sale.
Section 1
Offer picker
After discovery, read top to bottom and stop at the first row that fits.

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Previously rejected/denied, deficiency notice, or prior discipline | Compliance Risk Audit | YES |
| 2 | Needs a qualifier / wants help finding one | Qualifier Match & Placement | YES |
| 3 | New state, or 2+ states, or multi-state tracking pain | Multi-State Expansion Roadmap | If big/complex |

| 10 | Sensitive / pricing exception / nothing fits | Manual Rose Review | YES |
Deadline rule: a hard bid / award / work-start / board deadline within ~30 days → mark the lead Hot and send to Rose regardless of offer.
Section 2

Application Review Only ($495) does NOT include preparation, filing, agency communication, deficiency response, exam scheduling, qualifier placement, or ongoing management — if they need those, upsell to full application processing. Classification Review ($295) is advisory, not a guarantee of agency approval. Verified Trust Score ($499) — "Verified" does NOT mean reviewed, audited, approved, or certified by CCA.
Enterprise / franchise / national / multi-entity → custom, Rose. Payment terms typically 50% deposit / 50% on completion; deposit non-refundable once work begins; card fee (~3.9%) may apply. Confirm scope and current figure before sending a quote.
Section 3
Requirements — where to get the real answer
- Requirements (what a contractor needs in a given state/license) come from CCA's verified compliance matrix — check it, don't guess from memory.
- Keep state requirements and city/county (local) requirements separate — local rules are in addition to state.
- If you don't have a verified answer, say so and log the question. Use the line: "I want to make sure I give you the right answer — let me confirm and get back to you by [date]." Never guess a regulatory requirement.
Section 4
Say it the CCA way
- Meet them where they are. Understand the contractor before recommending anything.
- Don't take the requested license at face value. Ask what work they actually do.
- Capture answers in their words. Don't fill gaps with assumptions.
- Recommendation, not a determination. No promises about qualifying, approval, or a final price.
- Unsure? Route to Rose.
Prices are versioned baselines, not final quotes; internal pricing logic is confidential and not shared with clients. Verify current figures before sending.
