    Every academic supervisor will be different in their approach.

    The problem of sending your proposal with your initial inquiry is that you are imposing an obligation on the recipient to read it without knowing if they are interested in your research.

    Given the workload of most academics these days, this alone might put them off responding. If you are really keen on particular potential supervisors, one way to generate a better response rate might be to cite some of their work, either as a summary of their writing in the email or as cited works in the proposal.
