REVIEW AND EVALUATION
MAXIMISE YOUR BID SCORES
A proposal content review is one of the best ways of improving your chances of winning.
We review early, to ensure that you’re implementing your win strategy, and review at the end, to optimise your score against your customer’s evaluation criteria. We make sure you don’t just win hearts and minds: you get the top score.
IMPACT will take you through a structured and rigorous review process. To maintain your team’s motivation, we promote constructive, not destructive reviewing. And our review leaders don’t just facilitate reviews: we bring extra value through our own proposal evaluation and benchmarking process that measures you against the average, and best, in your sector.
DEAL-BASED MARKETING
PRESENTATION AND PITCH EVALUATION
PUT ON A WINNING PERFORMANCE
It’s rarely what you say that wins or loses bids, but how you say it. A great presentation can win over a sceptical audience. Or a bad one can lose the business when it was all but won.
We create presentations that support what you’re saying, rather than say it for you. And our presentation coaches will help you capture your audience’s attention so they remember your value proposition when they’re deciding who to appoint.
