Are you trying to launch a new vending business, expand an existing one, or perhaps even sell your current vending operation to a new owner? The vending business usually involves multiple partners, because many different entities might own the vending machines, the buildings in which they are placed, the business of servicing and restocking the machines, and the products that go into the machines.
So to close any vending deal, you will need to discuss how all parties will benefit. The odds are that your potential partner is going to ask you for a written proposal before he or she will be willing to join you or invest in your project.
If you're a business owner used to sealing a verbal deal with a handshake, being asked to produce a written business proposal can be a little intimidating. Where do you start? Relax. The odds are that you already have most, if not all, of the information you need. You just need to organize it into the proper form for a business proposal.
Business proposals may be long and complex or short and simple, but all proposals should have four major sections:
1) Introduction
2) Client/customer-focused section
3) Product/service description
4) a section about you or your organization
In the next paragraphs, we'll look at these sections in more depth.
The first part of an introduction should be a cover letter, which is not actually part of the proposal but instead introduces the proposal. A cover letter should be brief: simply explain who you are and why you are sending this proposal, include a statement of what you'd like the reader to do after reading the proposal, and provide all the necessary contact information so the recipient can easily find you to ask questions or accept your offer. If your offer is valid only for a limited time, be sure to state that in your letter.
