A bid for freedom
Writing sales bids can be enormously stressful,
time consuming and difficult.
But here’s the good news: it needn’t
be. Writing Machine’s Better Bid Writing course will
enable you to write sales bids that deliver results, without
the late nights in the office or the stress.
We’ll teach you how to:
- construct executive summaries
with a strong angle – to help target your
bids more effectively
- plan and structure lengthy bid
documents – to ease the stress of managing
bid creation
- use writing embellishments effectively
– to make your bids more accessible and more exciting
- identify key messages from existing
source material – to speed up the transition
from subject matter to sales bid
- improve the quality of writing
across the bid document – to make bids
more professional in appearance and easier to read
- brief other team members
- to make sure you get back exactly what you asked for
- proofread - techniques
for that final polish
Theory…and practice
The course will take the form of a one-day
interactive workshop, with a strong emphasis on practical
work and one-on-one tuition. Your trainer will be an experienced
professional writer, who will demonstrate the techniques
we use to make our writing professional, punchy and engaging.
As a result, you will not only learn theories that can underpin
the way you write bids in the future, you will also have
the opportunity to implement those theories under the watchful
eyes of someone who writes for a living.
On top of this, you’ll be given a
workbook that will be both a learning tool on the day and
a reference document for the future. It will explain, expand
and reiterate all the points raised throughout the day,
so you will never be stuck trying to remember what you were
taught.
Open or in-house
We are able to offer a comprehensive bid
writing course for your team or department. Alternatively,
we are also running Better Bid Writing as an open course
for individual delegates at our training facility in Winchester.
The next date is 11th June 2008.
This is the ideal course for anyone who
has to put together a sales bid, tender or proposal, or
if you are tasked with contributing to a bid section –
whether you work in the private or public sector, for a
large, international organisation or SME.
If you would like to attend the next open
course or would like Writing Machine to deliver a Better
Bid Writing course at your premises, please contact Claire
Fuller.
