by Gary Audin If you have to write proposals, you know without them you probably have no sales. If you are a reseller, VAR, MSP, integrator, or service provider you need to write them. More proposals mean more sales. Automating the proposal process saves time, produces consistency in the documents, reduces errors, and promotes the increased production of successful proposals. This is also true for a Statement of Work (SoW). Brian Cors, President and CEO of CorsPro www.corspro.com and Gary Audin recorded this podcast at the NEC Advantage conference. Brian covered several topics including automated proposal preparation, work flow rules, saving 9 hours a week in proposal preparation, and producing consistency in the proposals when there are multiple sales personnel. He points out that good proposal preparation can increase sales by 30%. SalesDoc Architect http://www.corspro.com/solutions/ is not just an off-the-shelf buy and forget product.
