This is just an example, keep it short and to the point. They want to read the Proposal not a bunch of rhetoric (did I say that) You might point out a couple of things that the contract says that is to THEIR advantage so they really read the whole thing. Short sweet and simple is best unless they want you to suck up. Keep the spacing and tabs consitant and even DO NOT bold, underline or other wise make anything blare at them. It's considered rude in business.
LOL
Hope this helps.
