Many organizations start by creating a sponsorship proposal template that’s based on their event’s financial or organizational goals- a document that serves as a sort of cookie cutter template that’s full of pre-defined benefits. The trick to an expert sponsorship proposal is that it has little to do with the words you choose to present your organization to the world, but everything to do with the audience you present it to.

Ensuring that your foundation makes impactful grants to the right nonprofit partners starts with a thorough proposal evaluation. A proposal should include more than just the organization’s mission statement and program description. The proposal should include a detailed description of how the program will be executed, how exactly the pieces fit together to achieve the desired outcome, and of the different phases involved in implementing and running the program.

Lately I have seen some discussion groups, listservs, and blogs on when to create a proposal in the Prospect Module of Raiser’s Edge® or for that matter in any fundraising legacy system. The timing or stage at which you create a proposal is truly up to each nonprofit organization. If you have not done so already, you should consider creating a proposal in order. Basically this is the latest stage at which I would create a proposal.

Grant proposals play a key role in the process of fundraising. What should the grant proposal contain? The corporate or organization you are sending it to pay keen attention to every detail and scrutinize it thoroughly before they agree to offer you the grant. How should one make it easily understandable at the same time develop an emotional connection with the person reading it? We’ve come up with the following key facets addressing these important questions

Proposals stood out when they stated the problem and solution clearly using economical language and bullets. Weaker proposals pointed to vague problems such as "inefficiency" or suggested new tools without any explanation of the selection process.

Storytelling is a great way to liven up your grant proposals, capture your readers’ attention and add more emotional connection to your cause. Plus, these answers will directly apply to what you are going to write in your grant proposal. Once you sit down and start writing, you should put these quotes in the ‘needs’ or ‘project goals’ portion of your proposal. Interviews, if done properly, can make your grant proposals stand out and humanize the work you are doing.

This means every proposal or appeal you write has a lot of competition. The good part is, there are a few things you can do to make sure your proposal stands out from the pack. Before you even start your proposal, do some research on the potential investor. You want to understand their goals, constraints and processes so your proposal can match their needs and meet their expectations. But, truth be told, all good proposals will do the same.

When your nonprofit needs a new vendor or consultant, the standard course of action is to send out a Request for Proposal (RFP) - indicating that your organization is interested in receiving information from vendors. Depending on the project, a request for proposal (RFP) may not be what your organization needs—the lesser known request for information (RFI) or request for quotation (RFQ), which are considerably more streamlined, could suffice.
