Save Big Dollars with Proposal Templates

Writing and editing one page of proposal text can take five hours or more. Ask company management about the average time required to write a proposal page and the response will typically be an hour or so. Ask a proposal manager the same question and he will most likely say that my estimate of five hours may be too low. Using five hours as a rough guide, a one hundred-paged proposal can require 500 man hours and cost $50,000 (assuming a professional writer bills at $100.00 per hour). By using templates, a business can realize savings of 30 – 60% off that estimate. The actual savings incurred depends on the type of proposal being drafted and the number of times the template has been used and refined.
