Two business operations skills. Which one fits your job? Side-by-side below.

The short version

Proposal Writer

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Write winning business proposals with problem statement, solution, pricing, and timeline.

What each one does

Contract Review

  • Reads any contract and produces a structured review with risk rating and key terms summary
  • Flags unusual or risky clauses with plain English explanations of what they mean
  • Identifies missing protections that should normally be in this type of agreement
  • Recommends specific actions for each clause (negotiate, accept, seek legal advice, or query)
  • Translates legal jargon into a summary anyone can understand

Proposal Writer

  • Creates structured proposals with problem statement, solution approach, pricing, and timeline
  • Writes customer-focused 'Understanding Your Situation' sections that prove you listened
  • Breaks down work into phases with clear deliverables and outcomes
  • Includes explicit 'not included' sections to prevent scope disputes
  • Generates professional pricing tables and payment terms
