Gretchen’s Services

We can help with all stages of RFP responses, from managing the creation of response templates and boilerplate content to managing the development of specific RFP responses or RFP response components (e.g., executive summaries) your organization doesn’t have the resources to manage without a little help.

Winning a new grant or a new customer often comes down to differentiating your organization in a crowded marketplace. We can conduct the research and do the writing necessary to help your business develop a compelling and succinct win theme or value proposition that differentiates you from your competitors.

Ideally your RFP response content echoes themes in your corporate marketing. We can help develop compelling marketing content—blog posts, white papers, conference materials—that amplifies your value proposition and aligns with your RFP response content.

Adding structure and processes, guided by industry best practices, to your RFP response team will help improve your efficiency. We can work with you to identify your pain points, and then develop tools—like intake templates, content libraries and SME training—to make your RFP response process easier.

Sometimes called “capture management,” we can develop and manage project plans to help your organization identify and cultivate new opportunities. Services can be as simple as conducting and assessing funder research or as complex as maintaining complete opportunity capture plans with market analysis and competitor research by product line, or geographic region.
