How to Use This Prompt

1. Research the client's company before generating — include specific details about their business.
2. If responding to an RFP, paste the RFP requirements so the proposal addresses each point.
3. Include your real case studies and team member names.
4. Customize the methodology section with your actual approach.
5. Price competitively — the AI can suggest pricing but you know your market.
6. Have a colleague review the proposal before sending — fresh eyes catch issues.
