You’ve been asked to write a report, or a proposal. You know what you want to say. You open a blank document and the cursor blinks. You’re not sure where to start, which sections to include, or how formal is formal enough. By the time you’ve figured it out, you’ve spent three hours on a document that should have taken one. The problem isn’t the content, it’s the structure: most professionals were never taught the specific conventions that make business reports and proposals work in English. This guide covers both document types from structure to language.
What’s Inside:
– 11 sections covering reports versus proposals, report structure, executive summaries, language for reports, proposal structure, persuasive language, formal tone and register, a drafting framework, common errors, model documents, and a quick reference phrase bank
– 32 phrase tables with 220 phrases total, covering everything from presenting findings to closing a proposal persuasively
– A complete 14-step drafting framework, including the fast-write technique for getting past a blank page
– A full model report and a full model proposal, both built from realistic business scenarios with real figures
– Separate writing checklists for reports and for proposals, so you can verify a draft before you send it
