Answer to Question 1

Answer: A
Explanation: A) If a proposal is unsolicited, approach the transmittal document as a persuasive message. You must convince the reader that what you're proposing is worthwhile and will justify the time required to read the entire proposal.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: A) Normally, an RFP will specify how you should refer to the RFP itself in your proposal. Organizations that issue RFPs include instructions because they need a methodical way to track all their active RFPs and the incoming responses. If there are no specific instructions in the RFP, use your best judgment, based on (1) the length of the RFP and (2) how you received the RFP, either hardcopy or online.
