The Q and A Sales Podcast

How do I sell in a competitive bidding environment?


Listen Later

Paul lays out your rights, as the salesperson, in the competitive bidding process.

Show Notes

Let the customer know your rights as the salesperson:

  • Access to the information you need to compile your proposal
  • Access to decision makers
  • To know the selection criteria
  • To know who the competition is

“If you’re willing to put your time and energy and effort into a comprehensive bid, you deserve this information.”

“What do you hope to achieve in a bid that we cannot gain just working together, one on one?” A negotiated contract is always better than a competitive bid.

If possible, deliver the proposal in person.
