AI+ Business Writing

Proposals, Reports and Emails That Get Results

Proposals that win. Reports that get read.

Every proposal starts with a blank page and ends with feedback like "where's the ask?" AI helps — but without a system, it produces fluent, generic documents that don't make your argument. This book gives business writers the document architecture method to plan before you write, the four-part proposal framework, the Business Writing Prompt Toolkit (33 ready-to-use prompts), and a confidentiality framework for what's safe to share. Write better documents, faster.

Inside
  • 33 ready-made, market-tested prompts: proposals, reports, briefings, executive summaries, status updates, internal memos, business cases
  • A document architecture workflow that decides structure before any prose is written — proposal, report, brief, or memo
  • A four-part proposal framework that presents a clear problem, a compelling solution, and an actionable ask
  • A three-pass revision model for clarity, concision, and impact — the consistency that raises the floor
  • A 30-day plan for analysts, project managers, consultants, business development professionals, and team leads at any stage
Who this is for

Any professional who produces documents that drive decisions at work — regardless of sector or seniority level. Analysts, project managers, coordinators, business development professionals, consultants, team leads, and new employees establishing their professional writing standard for the first time. Also: students completing degrees who know their next challenge is workplace writing, not academic writing. Cross-sector by design — the document types vary (a proposal looks the same whether you are in consulting, government, or construction) but the writing challenges are shared.

Also for:Managers who review and edit their teams' documents and want to close the gap between what is submitted to them and what they need to sign off; professionals who write in English as a second language and want AI to close the language gap without losing their reasoning; anyone who has been told their writing is "too long", "unclear", or "not persuasive" and wants a practical system for fixing it.

You’ll be able to
  • Apply the AI Opportunity Matrix and Augmentation Ladder to map business writing tasks — identifying what to automate, augment, protect, and explore
  • Design the architecture of any business document — proposal, report, briefing, or executive summary — before writing a word of prose
  • Draft professional business documents from briefs, notes, or bullet points using AI scaffolding, without surrendering clarity of argument or professional voice
  • Write proposals, business cases, and pitches that present a clear problem, a compelling solution, and an actionable ask
  • Edit business writing for clarity, concision, and impact using the TRUST framework and a three-pass revision model
  • Apply the AI Safety Checklist to business writing contexts — protecting confidential commercial data, client information, and sensitive organisational material before using any AI tool
