SUMMARY:Business Link -The 6-slide Proposal That Closes Your 6-Figure Deals Every Time Webinar
DESCRIPTION:“Send me a proposal.” The sweetest words you can hear from a prospect… That is\, until it’s time to create it.\nWhat do you put in it? \nHow should it be delivered? \nWhen does the client ultimately say “yes”? \nDelivering a high-value\, customized\, premium solution doesn’t mean we should send a ton of information that will make it harder for the prospect to say “yes.” Instead\, use this 6-slide formula that has consistently been used to close deals from $4\,000 to $40 million. And if you’re currently sending your prospect scopes of work\, letters of intent\, contracts\, or other lengthy documents and calling those the “proposal\,” this is a MUST ATTEND event. Stop the insanity and create documents that actually sell! \nThis will be part one of Kim Orlesky’s 2-part webinar series that covers what it looks like to close business! Who doesn’t want more of that? \nRegister for free today! \nFacilitated by: Kim Orlesky\, KimOrlesky.com \nPlease note: \nOur expert will address as many questions as possible\, but we cannot guarantee all questions will be answered. Questions and answers will be shared with all attendees. This webinar is not recorded. \nFri\, 8 February 2019 \n10:00 AM – 11:00 AM MST \nAdd to Calendar
