I have been freelancing for some time and oddly I have not been required to write a single proposal. The time has come....lol
Anyone have any samples or insight. I searched the web but do not want to pay 20 bucks for garbage.
Thanks in advance...

i have no samples.. but the studio I work for often slaps a bunch of jargon down on paper timelining events to follow...taking account for everything in the job... and then covers their ass with a statement like: The timeline and events listed are subject to change along with each instances quote.
Basically tell them what they want to hear .... but let them know they're not going to get anything you propose. [ ;)]

Here's some good guidelines on what to have, previous post mentioned price quotes.... usually those aren't in a proposal, but in an estimate which comes along with or after a proposal.
Proposal Guidelines -
- A clearly defined project objective
- Goals that the end product might achieve
- Strategies as to how those goals may be realized
- Target audience review
- Any market research findings
- A list of any research that needs to be done
- Assignment responsibilities -- what you will provide and what the client will provide
- An overview of the team players, your work history, client list or any other "sell" information you can provide that will reinforce the client's confidence in choosing you.
Yup that should help, sometimes with the client list a sample sheet is nice. People respond well to samples/examples... Good luck mate.
