1. Start here

Most weak proposals aren't weak because they look bad — they're weak because they make the buyer do too much work. The buyer has to remember what you talked about, translate your offer into their internal language, explain the price to someone else, and figure out what happens next.

AI helps only if you give it the right job: don't ask it to "write me a proposal" from nothing. Ask it to turn a real conversation into a clear decision document. The proposal isn't where you prove you're smart — it's where you make the decision easy.

2. The proposal stack

The system walks five steps, each with its own prompt: collect the proposal inputs (the input-sorter prompt organizes raw notes), define the buyer's decision (what are they actually saying yes to?), write the buyer summary first — their situation in their words, then the recommendation builder, and finally scope so nobody has to guess.

3. Scope that closes

The saveable scope table spells out what's included, what's not, and what the buyer is responsible for — the three things that prevent late-stage surprises and stalled deals. Clear scope reads as confidence, and confidence closes.
