</p><p>Almost all companies use proposal templates to varying degrees. You can't
have too many since they are the key to reducing proposal writing costs and proposal pain. <b>Two
key rules</b> govern the use of templates:
</p><ol><li>Every template used in a proposal must be tailored to the specifics of the
Request for Proposal (RFP). Templates will look like off-the-shelf templates if
they aren't tailored and evaluators will downgrade your proposal. The goal is to
make a template look like original text.
</li><li>Don't lose track of your legacy content (templates). They won't save money
if your writers don't know they exist or how to find them. Develop a template
database and inform all proposal writing personnel of its contents. </li></ol>
