Writing Sales Proposals Training Course
This course is ideal for anyone involved in sales, business development, and proposal writing. It is suitable for recently promoted salespeople who will be starting to have a more active role in winning new business and experienced senior sales professionals who want to improve their proposal writing skills.
This course will ensure that delegates capture their client’s interest in the very first sentence of a sales proposal to help them win more business. Good sales proposals rely on good research and credible facts, but an excellent sales proposal includes both of these along with a strong narrative and an engaging analysis of the client’s needs to compel your client to read on.
Through a combination of interactive sessions, discussions, and hands-on exercises, participants will learn about the key components of a successful sales proposal and how to tailor their proposals to meet the specific needs of their clients.
