Effective writing for business development
In this age of information overload, sales and business development professionals need to be able to write in a way that cuts through the clutter with a refined and engaging offering.


Overview
Winning business is more than bids and tenders. But from prospecting emails to customer retention – and many of the touch points in between – your team’s writing skills are still central to your key growth activities.
This practical course will show your team how to approach new prospects, establish and maintain relationships and outline your solutions by email. They’ll learn how to use clear and appropriate language to efficiently demonstrate the unique, discernible value you can provide.
If it fits your strategy, we can also include modules on writing thought leadership, pitching and presenting and using social media in the sales process.
Outcomes
By the end of the training, attendees will know how to:
- use subject lines to get their emails opened
- translate features and USPs into clear benefits that solve your prospects’ problems
- identify and communicate relevant win themes
- write engaging prospecting emails that put the client first
- write communications that reinforce in-person relationship-building – but also stand on their own
- use the appropriate tone and language
- write for varied audiences
- pitch technical information at the right level
- create effective summaries.
A key feature of this course is that all attendees receive our unique pre-course writing analysis. This covers 15 different areas of writing skills and helps us ensure the training meets attendees’ precise writing needs, while allowing for rapid, targeted improvements.
Who's it for?
Anyone in sales and business development who wants to grow their pipeline and maintain client relationships.
