In my experience, the one area where most teams consistently miss the mark is in clearly defining and presenting their ๐—ฉ๐—”๐—Ÿ๐—จ๐—˜ ๐—ฃ๐—ฅ๐—ข๐—ฃ๐—ข๐—ฆ๐—œ๐—ง๐—œ๐—ข๐—ก.


Often, teams struggle to articulate their value in plain language. They get tangled in jargon, self-importance, and ideation.


How you tell your ๐—ฉ๐—”๐—Ÿ๐—จ๐—˜ ๐—ฆ๐—ง๐—ข๐—ฅ๐—ฌ is key in a sales pitch. Itโ€™s not just another slide; itโ€™s the ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜๐—ถ๐—ฎ๐—น ๐—ฝ๐—ถ๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ผ๐—ณ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐˜‚๐˜‡๐˜‡๐—น๐—ฒ and the ๐—ด๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ป ๐˜๐—ต๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ that ties your entire message together.ย 


Here are ๐Ÿฑ ๐—ž๐—ฒ๐˜† ๐—”๐—ฐ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ผ๐—ป๐˜€ to help you clearly communicate VALUE in any proposal.

โš ๏ธ When your opening doesnโ€™t address the clientโ€™s biggest issue first, youโ€™ve already lost them.

โš ๏ธ If you only focus on what you offer instead of the results you deliver, youโ€™ll lose them in the weeds, they NEED to see customer value.



๐Ÿ’Ž ๐—œ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—ผ๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—ง๐—›๐—˜๐—  - Start with โ€œYOU GETโ€ instead of โ€œwe offerโ€, also highlight what happens if they donโ€™t take action.ย 

โš ๏ธ If you make it all about you and how great your solution/team/company is, the client wonโ€™t be feeling the love.ย

โš ๏ธThis is not the time to lack clarity or seem unsure.



๐Ÿ’Ž ๐—ž๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—ฌ๐—ข๐—จ๐—ฅ ๐˜‚๐—ป๐—ถ๐—พ๐˜‚๐—ฒ ๐˜€๐—ฒ๐—น๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜๐˜€ - Be clear, contrast what they get from you vs. the competition. Part of Pursuit preparation is knowing your competition and (where possible) how your offering is different/better than theirs.

โš ๏ธ Do your research, arm yourself with knowledge.


Winning isnโ€™t just about having a great product/solution - itโ€™s about ensuring the client clearly sees the VALUE you bring. Keep the value thread running through every part of your sales strategy, your interaction, your story and offering should align seamlessly paving the way for a WIN.
