Even though it appears first in our proposal, many people write the exec summary last. There is a better way...

Does this sound familiar? It's the night before the deadline and we're starting to write our executive summary for that big bid. And that's when we realize that we forgot to write some crucial part of the proposal, or - worse still - we got the strategy all wrong. Or, was your last exec summary a boring old cut and paste job all about you and not the customer?

Use the four box method to avoid starting with a blank page and facing writer's block.

Dr Tom Sant visited South Africa in August last year to address an exclusive session in Johannesburg on how to improve sales productivity and win rates.

nFold managing director, Sandy Pullinger: “We’re delighted that Tom, a Global Top 10 Sales Trainer, agreed to visit South Africa to pass on his knowledge. In his presentation, The Four Secrets of Persuasion, Tom answered the most vital question on any sales person’s mind: ‘What does it take to get someone to say YES?’

“If you need to persuade others to accept your recommendation, buy a product or service you offer, or make an investment, you need to know the answer. And in a tough economy, understanding how persuasion works will help you close business that’s profitable. Everyone found this session of huge value.”

nFold represents Dr Tom Sant in South Africa. If you missed Tom's seminar, or want to learn more about applying Tom's teachings and winning methodologies then come to the Persuasive Proposals workshop on the 6th June.

nFold co-founded the local chapter of the Association of Proposal Management Professionals (APMP) in 2009. Internationally, the APMP has been operating for 23 years (read more at www.apmp.org).

In 2011, we hosted the first South African APMP conference. The theme was 'The Art of Winning' and about 90 delegates came to learn, network and enhance their proposal writing skills.

The APMP SA are excited about the interest in proposal writing and that this profession is gaining recognition in South Africa - and even up through Africa. Go to www.apmp.org.za to find out how to become a member, gain from this international body of information and get on the mailing list to be invited to attend the 2012 events and conference.
