How to make a great proposal

A well written proposal that stands out from the rest can make all the difference between you winning business. A poor proposal can reflect badly on your venue whereas one with just a little bit more time spent on it can really jump out to the client. To help you write a winning proposals we have gathered together some best practice.

Proposal Name - This should include your venue name along with something catchy to make your proposal stand out. Do not include your personal name

Proposal Description - Include details of the room(s) available and your customer service credentials. Make this section personal including how you will make sure they event is one to remember.

Venue Profile - You do not need to include a profile of your venue as this will be copied from your account profile and shown on the proposal. To change this go to My Events > My Account

Pricing Notes - Use the pricing notes section to clarify the price you have offered along with setting out some of the extras that are available. As an incentive to book your venue you may wish to throw in some of these extras for free.

Proposal Discount - People like a discount so wherever possible try and offer even a small price reduction on your normal venue prices. This discount will be shown to the client so it will make your proposal stand out.

Attachments - People like to see pictures so include an attachment of photos or some marketing  information on your  venue.
