I have an assignment for a college course and my choose was to make a proposal to open a travel agent business in a office complex and I need to know how to present it to
The committee and have them except my concept.

Hi, babydoll49!

What format would the proposal need to be in, please?

Thanks!

Did your instructor give you proposal guidelines? There are definite requirements for a proposal, including stating measurable objectives.

Here are basic ideas from answers.google.com --

1. Write an executive summary first (one page max). This is the most difficult part of the plan. It should contain a clear description of the product or service from a benefit standpoint to the customer (don't just talk about features), why this business is distinct from competition, what you are asking for, and what is the return on investment (when??). The last line should clearly ask for the order (what do you want and when). Remember the old feature/benefit model. Features are things that are inherent in the product/service; benefits are what they can do for the customer. My contention is that there are only two universal benefits -- value and peace of mind. You may wish to make a short statement of your exit strategy in this summary...but it is most important to be clear and brief.
2. The following pages should expand on the summary...development plans, phased, costing, etc., then marketing plans, phased, costing, etc., financial projections phased, capital requirements, cash flow analysis...all the good things about money. Charts and flow diagrams demonstrate the axiom that a picture is worth a thousand words.
3. Be clear in what you are asking for.
4. If your plan depends on your "team", be sure to give a detailed bio of each person with examples of their commitment.
5. If you can summarize your plan into a slogan/mission statement (don't spend a lot of time here unless it jumps out at you...the mission statement thing is a bit passe) i.e.: Honda's supposed statement was "Six Hondas in Every Garage" Most of them are drivel.

Your college or public library should have a proposal guide (if your instructor doesn't demand a certain form).

No matter what, be sure to have an English major or someone good in English spelling and grammar review your proposal. You had typed "my choose," and it should have been "my choice." Also, you want the committee toi "accept" (not "except" which means "leave out") your concept. Please be careful when you write.
