Many organisations seek suppliers by requesting tenders or proposals. The challenge for a business is to submit a tender or proposal that emphasises their strengths and added value benefits, and differentiates them from other applicants.

This course will provide participants with practical strategies and tools to ensure that the structure, content and presentation of their tender or proposal will maximise the potential for success.

  • Provide delegates with an understanding of the aims and objectives of providing offers in written form.
  • Identify methods of using a written proposal to advance the sale.
  • Understand the different kinds of tenders and proposal.
  • Enable a delegate to produce a written proposal that is relevant to the invitation.
  • Improve the letter style for documents that sell.
  • Understand how to construct a proposal.
  • Understand the best methods to follow-up the document.
  • Understand the different kinds of tenders and proposal.
  • Recognise the importance of investing time to produce a quality document that will provide a selling edge.
