Distinction with Differentiators (The ‘M&M’ Episode) - EP137
Description
To win business with RFPs, you’ve got to distinguish yourself from the competition in your response.
But what if you don’t know what your differentiators are?
On this episode of The RFP Success Show, I share my M&M analogy for discovering what makes your company different and better than the rest.
I discuss why it’s challenging to identify the ‘candy coating’ in your own business and explain what question to ask clients and employees to uncover your differentiators.
Listen in for insight on what to do if your business lacks a candy coating and learn how to take your business from simple peanut to delicious M&M in your proposal response!
