5 Essential elements for proposal writing plans

By Lohfeld Consulting, July 24, 2012

There are multiple terms used for the initial writing tools used in proposal development. Some use the term storyboard or content plan. The storyboard term comes from the movie industry, in which the director blocks out scenes to visualize the action plot sequencing. Others prefer the term annotated outline to indicate the depth to which the flow of text is being developed. Writing plan is a generic term Lohfeld Consulting Group uses to refer to whichever method (storyboard, content plan, or annotated outline) you select for a particular proposal development effort.
