Manage episode 407486207 series 3561036
If an RFP isn’t asking a question that you think it needs to ask, is it okay to provide additional information?
While it’s tempting to tell a client what you think they need in your proposal response, it’s not always well received. Just like ordering a baked potato with butter and getting a loaded one.
So, what is the best approach to elaborating on RFP response answers? So you stand out in a good way?
On this episode of The RFP Success Show, I’m sharing my ‘baked potato’ analogy for elaborating on RFP response answers.
I explain how it might confuse evaluators if you add or change offerings and describe the challenge of evaluating a response that doesn’t align with the score sheet.
Listen in for insight on positioning additional offerings in a way that boosts your score and learn how to demonstrate that the additional information you’re providing serves the client’s needs.
