Land that crucial deal by crafting a professional proposal with Canva
Creating a great proposal has the ability to open doors for many professionals. From students to business development managers, proposals can help you get funding, close business deals and gain new clients just to mention a few. You’ve worked hard on your ideas, so it’s only right that they look just as great through a professional-quality proposal design.
The best part is, you won’t have to work as hard on designing your proposal. Canva is especially perfect for those who have little to no design experience or just have very little time to spend on design. Just browse through the various templates available in Canva then edit or translate(opens in a new tab or window) the content and as much or as little of the design elements as you want or need. Convert Word to PDF(opens in a new tab or window) or download your new file as a PDF, JPEG or PNG file ready for printing or sharing.
How to make a proposal
Give your proposal some proper form with Canva’s text tools
Format your proposals properly using Canva’s comprehensive text tools. Choose from over a hundred font types in Canva to really capture the tone you want for your proposal. Add headings, subheadings and body text with just a click each. You can also control everything from font size to font color. Emphasize certain points by using the underline, bold or italics text formatting tools.
Add images, illustrations or icons to support your text
Underscore certain sections or points by including an image to act as a visual aid. Canva hosts an amazing media library with over a million stock photos, illustrations and icons you can include in our proposal design. Use the search bar to find a specific image, then drag and drop it into your workspace. Each photo in Canva is carefully curated and reviewed so they’re sure to look good whether on print or on the screen.
Collaborate on your design with your team
Proposals can be tricky and time consuming. If you’ve got a global team to help you out, why not collaborate with them? Get their ideas, thoughts, edits and input by sharing your translated(opens in a new tab or window) proposal design as an editable file. Simply click on the share button, tick the box giving them editing access, then send out the generated link. Since Canva’s on the cloud, you and your collaborators can access your design anytime from anywhere in the world on any computer, laptop or even iPad, iPhone or Android device.
FAQ
A typical research proposal is between 2,000 and 3,500 words (4-7 pages) long. Technically, there is no limit to how short or long the proposal should be, but it’s important to keep in mind that whoever is reading your proposal most likely has many other proposals to read.
A great research proposal:
- uses clear, simple language
- highlights the multidisciplinary benefits of your research
- quantifies facts and figures in a visually appealing way
- shows that your research will be feasible and practical
Don’t be too descriptive or leave out the main point of the proposal.
