4. (a) Define proposal. Briefly describe the different sections of a proposal.     4+10=14
Ans: Proposals
A Proposal can be defined as an offer document presented to undertake work affecting the future of an organisation. Usually a proposal is given for any additions or amendments to be incorporated within a business framework. Proposals are also tools of communication but in a different sense. They do not just give the facts but also a probable solution to a particular problem or situation. They can be written to people within or outside an organisation.
Types of Proposals
Proposals can be classified into two types: Sales Proposal and Research Proposals
a) Sales Proposal: A sales proposal is a written sales pitch created by the sales professional that outlines the new idea, service or product to educate the client and generate interest. The sales proposal may also be combined with a demonstration of how the product or idea will benefit the client. Such kind of proposals are also known as business proposals.
b) Research Proposals: A research proposal is a document proposing a research project, generally in the sciences or academia, and generally constitutes a request for sponsorship of that research. Proposals are evaluated on the cost and potential impact of the proposed research, and on the soundness of the proposed plan for carrying it out. 
Proposals can be further classified into two types, viz. Solicited and Unsolicited.
a) Solicited Proposal: A solicited proposal is usually a response to a published requirement, most of the time this is done in writing. They are normally issued during those times wherein the customer’s needs are no longer met.
b) Unsolicited Proposal: On the other hand, an unsolicited proposal, as what its name imply, is not a response to any buyer’s need. Most of the times, this type of proposal is being used to advertise a new product. They come in brochures or leaflets.
How a Proposal is drafted?
A good proposal is essential for every business. A thoroughly researched and well-thought-out proposal can not only help in securing new clients for business start-up, it may also allow rethink original vision so that one can become more organized, better prepared and, ultimately, more successful than what would have been without it.
Steps in drafting a proposal
1. Research: The first step to writing the perfect business proposal is to research the customers we want to attract with it. Conduct research on the Internet, talk to personal contacts and even meet with decision-makers at the company so that we can tailor our proposal to meet their needs.
2. Introduction: Most business proposals, depending on the target audience and formality, follow a similar structure. They begin with a cover letter that introduces a company and provides an overview of the organization's background and qualifications. Next, include a brief title page which should list proposer’s name and company’s name along with the name of the company to whom the proposal is submitted. If the proposal is lengthy, it should also feature a table of contents.
3. Executive Summary: The executive summary is the section of proposal in which we make our case. Since it is the most important part of any business proposal, it should be factual, free of jargon and to the point. It should also be objective, well-written and, above all, persuasive.
4. Procedures: The body of the document includes all of the logistical information the potential client will need, including technical details, price, schedules, training information and other documentation. It is important to note that, should the proposal be accepted, this section can become legally binding, so it may be best to submit this portion only to those potential clients who have expressed interest in the other sections of our proposal.

From: Mr. Y, Senior Marketing Manager
Subject: Reasons for declining sales of Tata Tiscon TMT bars

In response to your request, I have examined the large number of complaints and obtained feedback from our various customers about our TATA Tiscon TMT Bars. In all, there are 700 letters or postcards.
Findings
Each piece of correspondence was classified according to the reported problems. In all there are three major findings:
a) Product Quality: The major problem is product quality. Majority of the customers reported that product quality is poor. Frequent traveler reported that the customers are not satisfied with the product quality of our TMT bars.

b) Refunds and return: The second most commonly cited complaint is that it is difficult to obtain sale refunds from our retailers.

c) High price: Majority of customers also cited that the prices of our TMT bars are very high as compared to other TMT bars.
Recommendations
Based on the above mentioned findings, we need to take the following steps:
a) Improving Quality: We need to create a team of product design personnel and manufacturing people to improve the quality of the product. The team should investigate how the quality of the TMT  bars can be improved.

b) Frequent contact with retailers: Send a letter the retailers selling our product to inform that we will replace or repurchase all the TMT bars which are defective and returned by the customers.

c) Price review: Create a team of marketing people to review our price vis-à-vis competition.

5. (a) What do you mean by a speech? What strategies would you adopt for planning and preparing a speech?3+11=14
Ans: Speeches to Motivate: Delivering motivating speeches is also a form of oral presentation. Motivational speeches can be called persuasive speeches which rouse such emotions and desires in an individual that he is inspired to take action. Before delivering motivational speeches, executives have to identify the motivation of the employees. Motivations are the inner urge an individual to that channelise him to work. Each individual has urge to work and management has to transform these urges and drives in realisation of organisational objectives.
Characteristics and importance of a good speech:
A good speech must bear the following characteristics.
1)      Clarity: A good speech should be clear to the audience or listener. A speech must be successful to attain its objective by making a clear expression.
2)      Informal talk: A good speech should be like a chat between two intimate friends. There should be perfect contact between speaker and audience.
3)      Live and concrete: A good speech is lived in nature and contains concrete facts which are easy to understand.
4)      Short: Audience on an average cannot concentrate more than fifteen to twenty minutes. So, speech should not be longer than this unless the audience wants more.
5)      Interesting: A good speech is an interesting one which involves quotations, anecdotes and humor. Quotations should be original and anecdote should be new and brief. Whereas humors should be genteel with good taste.
While preparing a speech for motivation, the speaker should keep in mind a few following strategies:
a) Selection of the topic: The first step in the formal speech morning is to determine the topic of the presentation. Before selection of the topic at first the speaker should consider his knowledge about the topic than they will consider the interest of the audience. Where the topic will be presented and lastly he should consider the occasion. The selection should be justified by all above factors.
b) Preparation of the presentation: After selection of the topic the speaker should gather the information that the he needs for this speech. After collection of the information the speaker should organize the information. In presentation stage the greeting usually comes first and gain attention in the opening. In the second stage the speaker prepared the main body of the speeches and lastly conclusion. In the introductory stage the speaker can use the gossip, humor, quotations, questions etc. The middle should be devoted to the discussion and in conclusion it should summarize the main points.
c) Determination of the presentation method: With the speech organized, the speaker is ready to prepare its presentation. At this time, the speaker needs to decide on the method of presentation that is, whether to present the speech extemporaneously, to memorize it or to read it.
d) Audience analysis: One requirement of good speech making is to know the audience. The speaker should study his audience both before and during the presentation.
e) Appearance and physical actions: When the listeners hear the speech, they are looking for the speaker. What they see is a part of the message and can affect the success of the speech. The speaker should understand the communication effects of the listeners see. The speaker must be careful about the communication environment, personal appearance, posture, walking, facial expression, get gestures etc.
f) Use of voice: Good voice is an obvious requirement of good speaking. Like physical movements, the voice should not hinder the listener’s concentration on the message. More specifically, it should not detract attention from the message. The speaker should be careful about lack of pitch variation, lack of variation in speed, lack of vocal emphasis and unpleasant voice quality etc.

Significance of Power Point
Microsoft PowerPoint is an easy program to use and a powerful tool for giving a presentation. Whether our presentation needs a visual aid, tools for collaboration, easy access or the ability to share information beyond the initial meeting, PowerPoint is a good option. It can even help reduce speaking anxiety by drawing eyes away from the speaker and towards a screen. Some of the significance of Power Point Presentation are highlighted below:
a) Visual Impact: Making presentation more interesting through the use of multimedia can help to improve the audience's focus. PowerPoint allows us to use images, audio and video to have a greater visual impact. These visual and audio cues may also help a presenter be more improvisational and interactive with the audience.
b) Marketing Strategy: Powerful tools and options present in Microsoft power point, makes it easier for people in marketing, advertising, and sales to make presentations for motivation of their subordinates. Inclusion of different types of charts, images, clip-arts, other graphical structures, makes a presentation eye catchy. Animation and sound effects add extra emphasis on these presentations making them look more interactive.
c) Corporate Training Session: Power point is an essential ingredient of every corporate training session. Top executives and manager (marketing and sales) use this powerful tool to train their junior's or associates to give them better, interactive and more effective training. It's always beneficial and less time consuming for corporate trainers, if they use these tools in their sessions, it generates more results.
d) Flexibility: PowerPoint can be used in a number of different effective ways to communicate with our audience. Slides are completely customizable to fit our needs. Depending on our approach, we may want to have a presentation that is text-heavy, image-heavy or some combination of both. Text-heavy presentations are generally good if we are giving a lecture to a group within your company and want them to take notes. Image-heavy presentations can help to make your presentation more conversational in style since there only visual cues. Combining the two approaches gives listeners the benefits of both visual aids and notes.
e) Collaboration: PowerPoint allows us to work with other people in a collaborative manner. This is especially useful in office settings where teamwork is key. Multiple people can collaborate on and contribute to a presentation. By going to the "Review" tab at the top of the program and clicking the "New Comment" button, we can leave notes and reposition them on the screen for other team members to view.
f) Content Sharing: We can upload our presentation to websites such as YouTube with everything featured in our work including all of the slides, commentary and transitions. All we have to do is go to "File," "Save and Send" and "Create a Video." The file will be saved in WMV format, which is capable of playback on Windows Media Player and can be uploaded to most video sites.
6. (a) Distinguish between verbal and non-verbal languages. Explain briefly the advantages and limitations of non-verbal language.                            4+10=14
Ans:  Oral or Verbal Communication: Oral communication is the face to face communication between individuals. In dealing face-to-face, we can judge how the other party is reacting, get immediate feedback, and answer questions to avoid any misunderstanding. Some of the electronic and non-electronic devices such as telephones, cell-phones (mobiles), walkie–talkie, speakers, and audio-video presentations are some of the examples used in verbal communication.
Non-Verbal Communication: Non-verbal communication (NVC) refers to messages sent through human actions and behaviour rather than through words. It is a communication exchange that does not use words or that uses words to carry more meaning than the strict definition of the words themselves.
