This is no secret, even so, many proposals are vague without making it clear what the target will be for the project in question. For this to happen, you need to be aware of 3 factors:<ul><li>Project Essence: The consulting proposal must justify the reason for the project, the main cause it will address and what outcome will be delivered.</li><li>Straight to Point: Must have few words, focusing on the problem presented by the client and the results of their analysis.

This is a critical moment, decisive for the sale of the project.The proposal needs to be clear and convincing, both content and form matter. Use diagrams and flowcharts to display points, use the tools you&#39;ve already applied. <Image quality="95" width="432" height="144" src="https://images.prismic.io/voitto-blog/ZjQzNGJiZWUtZDAyMC00NzZjLTllNzEtNTc0ZTYyNWIxMmUy_x9eagjrjwnt_zjfokfludattgou2iudtqmzye_h92gcqal28wbaebssuvfzvhmeeuhendvqb7cqib60iumn_tw7ihg1so4phdtgsddvrn3nsilmcxfggdr0s2mgw2llmk1mhhz0g" alt="" title="" /> As you can see, in order to clarify the proposal, visually speaking, it is extremely important to stratify the data in a way that shows everything that has been analyzed.<h2>4 - Detail</h2>Present the details of the steps, what methodologies will be used in each one of them, applied tools and the description of how you will work on each step.A very simple example of detailing that we can show is about this article you are reading.
