A Comptractor is a professional or service provider who delivers the most competitive and customer-focused service possible. Unlike a traditional contractor (derived from CONtract), a Comptractor emphasizes COMPetitive value—striving to exceed expectations in quality, pricing, and performance. The term was created to redefine excellence in service by putting the customer's interests first.

A customer lead is a potential client who has shown interest in your product or service. This could be someone who submitted a contact form, requested a quote, or interacted with your business in a meaningful way. Leads are opportunities to start a conversation, build trust, and turn interest into a sale.

A Request for Bid (RFB) is a formal invitation for vendors or contractors to submit a competitive price to complete a specific job or deliver a defined product. It's typically used when the requirements are clearly defined and the lowest price is the deciding factor.

A Request for Quote (RFQ) is a document used to solicit pricing details for specific products or services. Unlike an RFB, an RFQ may be less formal and is often used for smaller purchases or when price comparisons are needed for budgeting or procurement.

A Request for Proposal (RFP) is used when a project requires a customized solution. It invites vendors to propose how they would address a problem or deliver a service, including their approach, timeline, qualifications, and pricing. RFPs are evaluated on multiple factors, not just cost.

A smart contract is a digital agreement that automatically enforces the terms set between a customer and a business. Once both parties agree and sign, the contract runs on secure blockchain technology—meaning it can’t be changed, tampered with, or forgotten. It ensures both sides uphold their responsibilities without the need for a middleman.

Smart contracts are self-executing programs stored on a blockchain, typically written in programming languages like Solidity (for Ethereum). They encode business logic and automatically enforce rules defined in their code without requiring intermediaries. Once deployed, a smart contract runs deterministically on all network nodes, meaning its outcome is predictable and tamper-proof. For example, when a customer selects a winning bid, the smart contract may include: Terms (e.g., scope of work, timeline, payment milestones) Triggers (e.g., a business marks work as complete) Actions (e.g., release of payment, confirmation of delivery) Because it's on-chain, no party can change the contract once it's deployed, ensuring both accountability and transparency.
