Most frame drawings start with floor plans, and then bent assemblies. After that elevations of all four sides, especially if different from front to back or end to end.
But the most attention getter is the isometric view of the frame.
If you can draw a frame with graph paper then pick up an low end cad program and learn to draw with a mouse, and see if it can produce a 3d drawing. Printing out a nice frame, without the graph pager lines, will add some professionalism to your drawings, even if you can't produce an isometric drawing.
Or you could get a good drafting board and learn how to draw the three views and then an isometric from those views.
When making a proposal drawing don't spend a lot of time on the joinery. Just put the beams in their places and the joinery is in the shop drawings, if you make them.
Good luck with your drawings.
