Business Proposal

Week 7’s Business Proposal should present the key items that need to be included in the social media policy, and why.

Apply the three-step process of writing: plan, write, and complete
Prepare an outline of your research paper before you go forward
Complete a first draft and then go back to edit, evaluate, and make any changes required; use paragraphs, avoiding lists and bullets
Use 12-point Times New Roman font, double-space all text, and use one-inch margins
The first page should be a title page that includes the following:
Title of presentation
Student’s name
Course name and number
Instructor’s name
Date submitted
Use page headers and footers that include page numbers
Your paper should begin with an Executive Summary. The Executive Summary appears at the beginning of the paper, but it is the last section that is written. Introduce the subject and why the subject is important. Preview the main ideas and the order in which they will be covered. Establish the tone of the document. This introductory section is the hook to grab the reader’s interest
In the body of your paper, break out each main idea you will use and provide evidence. Show some type of division using headings and subheadings. Avoid long paragraphs
Use visual communication to further clarify and support the written part of your report. You could use example graphs, diagrams, photographs, flowcharts, maps, drawings, animation, video clips, pictograms, tables, and Gantt charts
Your paper should end with a Summary or Conclusion, which restates your objective and convinces your reader to accept your plan
The final page of your paper should be a Reference page, Bibliography, or Works Cited page showing your sources of research. There should be corresponding in-text citations or footnotes for each of these referenced sources. While we study wiki websites in this course, use of them as a valid resource is discouraged
