Five Proposal Writing Tips For Beginners

 


 Check out my five proposal writing tips for beginners here:

1. Get clear on what you need to say as it relates to what is required

2. Gather your team as needed, and make sure you are able to get access to the information that you need to plug into the proposal

3. Start early. You don't want to rush the process. Having everything you need at the right time gives you an advantage

4. Create deadlines for completing each portion of the proposal

5. Have someone on your side who can check your work, and view it from the eye of the funder

I want to share with you a new program that provides emergency assistance for eligible restaurants, bars, and other qualifying businesses. Applications are now open.  The Restaurant Revitalization fund is being made available from the American Rescue Plan Act, and provides restaurants funding equal to their pandemic related revenue loss.
