Choosing a proposal template
Start with the business proposal template for most client work, the project proposal template when someone needs to approve and fund a project, or an industry version when the work has its own conventions, such as usage licences in photography or work stages in architecture.
Every proposal here follows the same order: the client’s situation, objectives, approach, deliverables, timeline, investment and next steps.
What should a proposal include?
The client’s situation, objectives, your approach, deliverables, timeline, price with a payment schedule, exclusions, what you need from the client and a clear way to accept.
Proposal, quote or contract?
A quote prices defined work. A proposal also makes the case for your approach. A contract sets the legal terms. Many firms send a proposal and an agreement together.
Are these templates free?
Yes. Every template downloads as an editable file without an account or email address.
