Masterclass description:

Too many people are stuck in something of a rut when it comes to creating proposal documents. Today's proposals looks pretty much like those produced years ago, and the staleness often shows.

They can take an age to produce as copy is written, taken out and put back in disagreements over content. But despite all this work, most end up looking pretty much the same as competitors' proposals - they are laid out in the same order, covering the same topics, saying the same sorts of things. Yet a proposal can tip the balance - either way - when clients are making decisions on which supplier to select.

In this seminar Chris Matthews will show you how to make perfect proposals, including when and how to use "new" media.

The session will include:

  • What clients look for in proposals;
  • Time appreciation;
  • Which style is important;
  • The importance of scoping;
  • The single most important change you can make;
  • Case study use and abuse;
  • Drafting techniques;
  • A test to apply to see how good your document is.
