4 Ways to Improve Business Proposals

Retention proposals are an excellent way to increase your cashflow, stabilize your business, and develop new business opportunities.

Why?

Instead of looking for new Business Proposals awards, focus on your current clients and see where and how you can extend these contracts.

Retention Proposals: Getting Started

The first question is to ask why clients look for new consultants.

To win contracts, especially retention proposals:

• Identify where you have added value to date.
• Give examples so the evaluation team can see where you’ve made these contributions.
• Show how you’ve met the targets in the Service Level Agreements (SLAs)
• Outline how you hope to work together in the future and why your knowledge will give you the insight to develop the right systems.

When you put yourself in their shoes it makes sense. They want to keep consultants motivated and ensure they get value for money.
