I don't have Microsoft Word, can I still use your products?
Yes.
Unlike other proposal and contract products, which require you to have all of the most expensive business tools such as Microsoft Word, Adobe Acrobat and usually graphics software as well, our Proposal Kits and related products work with many office suites. Solutions range from free office suites such as OpenOffice.org to the more expensive Microsoft Office solutions.

is the right product for you?".
This page answers most
commonly asked questions. Or contact us
for assistance. We have added a large volume of information
to our site over the years to answer just about every question
we get from visitors and customers around the world, in virtually
every industry and from individual freelancers to large corporations.
This volume of information meant to answer everyone's questions
can be confusing to find just what you may be looking for. You
can get to all of the site sections quickly using our Site
Map. We have added many types of information pages to appeal
to different visitors, some pages present information graphically,
some using tables and some using mainly text.
What are the differences between styles, templates
and samples?
Templates are individual documents ready to edit
and fill in the blanks.
There are many different templates such
as a Cover Letter, Title Page, Executive Summary, Cost Summary,
Resume, Benefits, Features, etc.
A Proposal Pack contains templates, instructions, and sample proposals: everything you need to create a winning proposal. Every Proposal Pack contains the same files and information. The only difference between Proposal Packs is style: each Proposal Pack has a unique combination of colors, page header fonts, and accent graphics.
Picking a Proposal Pack is like deciding how to dress for your presentation to a prospective client. Do you want to wear a traditional suit; appear in a bold, artsy ensemble; or strive for a conservative but casual look? It all depends on how you want to present yourself and your organization to your special audience.
In the same way you vary your clothing to match the occasion, you may want different looks for different proposals. In that case, you'll want to purchase more than one Proposal Pack to have more than one style to choose from.
For example, say your company specializes in interior decoration for large facilities. You might want to purchase Proposal Pack Classic #2 for proposals to banks, Proposal Pack Tech #1 for proposals to software design companies, and Proposal Pack Artsy #1 for proposals to colleges and clinics.
The Proposal Pack for Any Business is the most general looking style and does not include
any custom graphics.
Does the Pro version include "everything"?
No.
The Proposal Kit Professional is a bundle of a number of specific products (not every product on our site),
which are the most commonly used by and specifically designed
for web and other computer professionals due to the specific contracts included.
See the product pages for specific details
about what is included in each product. There are hundreds of products
on this site most sold individually as stand-alone products or
as add-ons.
Does your kit work in countries other than the US?
All kits are currently written in the English language.
You can translate the documents for other languages yourself as needed. Proposal Kit products are used by tens of thousands of businesses and freelancers in over 100 countries.
The Pro version includes some contracts that have been written to conform to Canadian (including Quebec) and UK and Australia English laws.
For use in any other countries you should consult an attorney or solicitor to review the contract and edit as needed.
