This weeks reading was mainly about proposals. Since proposals are competitive they must be accurate and they must be convincing. Generally, there are two parts to proposals, the first being solicited. Solicited is one an organization request and the other is unsolicited, these are those that you choose you want to propose to sponsor. The main purpose is to gain money, permission, time, or support for a specific project. Not just a recommendation for change, but an offer to do something in exchange for something else. All of these elements are very good to know for our next project. I am very excited and this week's reading was quite helpful!
