What to include in a proposal
A simple structure that works for most audiences, mapped to the slides in this deck:
| Part | What goes there | Slide in this deck |
|---|---|---|
| Client need | Their problem and goals, in their words | Slides 2, 4, 6 |
| Proposed solution | What you will do and how | Slides 17, 19, 20 |

| Plan and timeline | Phases and milestones | Use any content slide |
| Investment | Price, options and terms | Slide 12 |
| Next steps | How to proceed | Slides 3, 19 |
Key numbers: Proposals and RFPs
Research figures you can quote on your slides. Each one names the study it comes from, so your audience can check it.
| Finding | Figure | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Average RFP win rate | 45% (up from 43%) | Loopio RFP Trends & Benchmarks (2025) |
| Average RFP win rate, the following year | 39% | Loopio RFP Trends & Benchmarks (2026) |
| How often responses reach the shortlist | 54% | Loopio RFP Trends & Benchmarks (2025) |
| Average RFPs a team completes per year | 153 | Loopio RFP Trends & Benchmarks (2025) |

Loopio links the drop in 2026 partly to teams bidding on more RFPs while using go/no-go reviews less often. A clear qualification step is worth a slide of its own.

Tips for a proposal
- Open with the client's goals, not your company history.
- Use go/no-go reviews; Loopio links falling win rates to bidding on too many RFPs.
- Offer two or three pricing options.
- Make the next step easy and dated.
Mistakes to avoid
- Generic boilerplate
- Price hidden or unclear
- No proof such as case studies
Checklist before you present
- Does it restate the client's need?
- Is the solution specific to them?
- Is there proof (case studies, references)?
- Is pricing clear?
- Is the next step dated?
Great for
- Investor and fundraising meetings
- Client and consulting proposals
- Business plans for new ventures
- Budget and investment approvals
