Writing Proposals that Win Business (WRI011)

Who Should Attend:

All levels of staff who are required to respond to requests for proposals, grant applications and various funding projects.

Overview of the Workshop:

When it comes to proposals, business is often won or lost based on the writer's ability to win the confidence of the reader. What makes the difference between a regular proposal and a Winning Proposal? A Winning Proposal is one that uses the art of persuasion. To use the art of persuasion, you must SELL the benefits of your idea so that the readers are convinced it is in their best interest to say YES! Learn the key rules of persuasion and how to combine them with high-energy language to write a winning proposal.

This 2 day workshop includes a comprehensive course manual that participants can use as an ongoing reference to reinforce their learning. The content of the manual reflects the writing environment of the Provincial Government. It also includes a reference section on Business Grammar and Usage.

This program will help you develop the ability to...

• use the art of persuasion so your readers say “yes”
  
  
• prove that your proposal will solve a need
  
  
• plan and organize to put the right information in the right place
  
  
• guide your readers so they “head nod” as you present the information
