I am your host Scott Ingram and since he\u2019s self-introducing, here\u2019s today\u2019s tip from Reuben Swartz:<\/p>\n<p>Reuben Swartz: I Reuben Swartz here, founder of Mimiran CRM, the CRM for people who hate selling, which is kind of an ironic thing for this podcast also Chief Nerd over at the Sales for Nerds podcast. And I want to talk to you for a couple of minutes about proposals. Like a lot of you, I didn&#8217;t receive any formal training in how to write a proposal. It was just someone asked for it and then I went searched around for something on the Internet, some kind of template that I could copy and use, and I made a ton of mistakes and I lost a lot of deals that I should have won because proposals really don&#8217;t win deals, they lose them. And it took me about a decade to learn to do proposals properly.<br \/>\nSo maybe I&#8217;m just a real slow learner, but I&#8217;ve noticed from talking to other people that I&#8217;m not the only one who&#8217;s making some of these mistakes. So, here&#8217;s a couple of quick tips to help you create more compelling proposals and close more deals and have more fun doing it. First of all, our proposal is a story, not a brochure. If you&#8217;re just spewing a bunch of stuff about how awesome you are, how awesome your company is, how awesome your goods and services are, and not telling a story, you&#8217;re not going to catch the attention of the customer and you&#8217;re going to make them think a lot trying to put together the story in their head, which is hard. If somebody else is putting the story together for them, they&#8217;re going to get the deal. Secondly, the hero of the story is the buyer. Not You.<br \/>\nYou&#8217;re Obi-Wan Kenobi. You&#8217;re the old man helping out Luke Skywalker. The buyer is Luke and it\u2019s easy to get wrapped up in ourselves because, naturally, that&#8217;s who we want to think about &#8212; being awesome. But really, the story is about the customer taking on a problem with your help and solving it and achieving the outcome they want to achieve. So, if you only pick up two things from this, proposals, a story, not a brochure, and the hero of the story is the buyer, not you. Really important things. And then sort of the corollary to that is every good story needs a compelling villain. So, it doesn&#8217;t necessarily have to be some galactic battle station that&#8217;s going to blow up your base or whatever. But there&#8217;s gotta be some reason that the hero of the story needs to change. It needs to take action. And if you&#8217;re sitting there thinking, \u201cGosh, you know, this just doesn&#8217;t seem very compelling\u201d. It&#8217;s usually because there isn&#8217;t a good villain in the story. And it&#8217;s okay just to ask, \u201chey, this doesn&#8217;t seem so bad. Why bother putting in all this effort to fix this?\u201d And sometimes they may say, \u201cokay, you&#8217;re right\u201d, and then you save yourself a bunch of time. But more often they&#8217;re going to reveal what their real thinking is and why they really need to make the change. And you can then incorporate that into your proposal so that you have a compelling story that they can sign onto. Hope that helps. All the best.<\/p>\n<p>Scott Ingram: I think Reuben\u2019s tip today just goes to show that everything in your sales process can be improved.
