Proposal Skills Training
Differentiating
Your Solution
In competitive markets, the only way to win is to differentiate your solution from competitive alternatives. Why is your solution better? This class shows you how to identify and write differentiators that actually make a difference.
Make Your Proposals
Easy to Skim
Who has time to read a 75 page proposal cover to cover? Not me. Probably not you, either. Fact: people don’t read proposals, they skim them. If you want your proposals to be read, make them easy to skim.
Writing to Persuade,
NOT to Inform
A proposal, by definition, is a persuasive document. It’s purpose is to persuade a buyer to take a particular action. Effective proposal writing, therefore, needs to be persuasive, not informative.
How to Draft Compelling Proposal Content
How to Write Cover Letters, Title Pages, and Executive Summaries

How to Write Effective and Compelling Answers to RFP Question
Learn how to write answer content that is effective, customer-focused, and that differentiates your solution from competing alternatives.
