    • If you propose something, you put forward a suggestion or make an offer. Therefore, a proposal is a document which offers an idea or suggests a course of action which needs approval, funding, or permission from the reader. A proposal attempts to persuade the reader that the proposed idea or plan is a good one. Successful proposals bring in new business for companies as well as help small companies to expand, while they may also fund research or innovation, among other things.
