What’s a Project Proposal Anyway?

Simply put, a project proposal is a document that you present to potential clients or sponsors. It illustrates key information about what you want to accomplish and how you’re going to accomplish it.

Project proposals are significant because your clients use them to evaluate your plans, ideas, and strategies. They decide whether they will go ahead and use your services on the basis of your proposal.
