Advisory:
Be very careful when you send out proposals. Many businesses call for proposals when they want (free) SOLUTIONS.
As a writer (and marketer, if you're a copywriter too), you get paid for solutions.
It's very easy to fall into the trap of answering someone's questions in a proposal to prove that yes, indeed you can help them -- and then find out that you did. Oops...
Love this Dilbert cartoon, which nails it.
