Proposal Writing

Writing a proposal depends on a number on items, but for the most part there is no such thing as a "standard proposal."

Your client or project will dictate the requirements for every proposal you write. In many ways it is like a book. First you introduce the reader to the premise of your idea and outline some of the areas you will profile. Secondly, you lay out your proposal or ideas the way you want people to read it. You involve the reader with enthusiastic and workable ideas and solutions. Finally you resolve all the elements in a summary that ties everything together.

This means writing a proposal with your client's needs as well as your own needs in mind. Your ideas must have a structure and a logic that can be supported and defended. The Who What Where Why and How are the fundamental building blocks for any creative thinker and for any successful proposal that chooses to be entertaining and educational.

Research and Development

If you're going to make a mistake with your project ...this is the place to find out. Research and development allows you to plan before you enter the practical world. It is a testing of ideas and models that can save you time, resources and money. Research and development can take a number of routes including establishing whether there is a market for your idea, who else has tried them and what was the result. Developing a critical path or a plan that identifies the specific activities required to meet your goals, is all part of the research and development phase of a project.

Custom Marketing Plans

A marketing plan is essentially about how you plan to undertake your new business or venture and in what direction you wish to go. In most new organizations or new projects, a common pitfall is when people set unrealistic expectations and goals for themselves. The end result is a great deal of frustration and wasted resources. If you're a new company, marketing is the one element that will distinguish you from the pack. It will define your approach to securing a market for your product or service. Too often people confuse advertising with marketing. Look at your product or service, define your market and devise workable and realistic strategies to meet your goals or those of the client.

Communication Strategies

It sounds simple enough...and why not; we do it everyday. Yet people still have trouble communicating their ideas. Sometimes it might be the challenge of a large setting, or someone who may appear intimidating. In other cases some people feel more comfortable communicating in one medium, while ignoring the potential of another. Communication is the one skill that goes way beyond voice-mail. It is the human and indelible imprint of your personality. It is a vital ingredient for any small or large organization and a crucial element to understand how to motivate people and market yourself and your projects. Areas such as decision making, assertiveness training and problem solving are all elements of the communication process; a process that is the engine of any business growth.

Strategic Planning

Once your idea is underway you may be looking at new ideas and strategies to improve, diversify, or expand your service. For many new and established businesses, this decision depends on a number of variables that take into account your track record to date, realistic expectations and future market demands. As the creator of an idea, gaining an objective perspective into all these elements will help you decide which path will be the most effective one to pursue.

Event Organization

An event can span everything from a simple company function to a major conference and convention. Event planning and organization is one of the largest areas of growth in the service sector. Skilled individuals are constantly in demand to meet the growing requirements of a professionally staged event.
