*TENDERING SPECIAL*

LIVE Business Resilience Q&A supporting Liverpool City Region businesses to recover from the economic impact of Covid-19 and grow through recovery and beyond.

Do you keep missing out on winning contract bids?

Do you want to expand your client base and grow your business through tendering?

This Business Resilience Clinic Tendering Special will help you understand how to go for tenders and, most importantly, how to make your bid stand out to help you win contracts.

With an increasingly competitive market for professional services and other products, it’s more important than even to take a proactive approach in finding new clients and customers for your business. This is where tendering comes in…

This event will help you:

• Understand what tendering is and how it can work for your business

• Get to grips with the tendering and bid process

• Know where to look for invitations to tender

• Recognise what companies are looking for and how to make your business stand out in your bid

You will be able to hear useful information, tips and advice from special guest panellist and tendering expert, Stuart Reed, who is one of the North West’s leading voices in tendering for public and private sector contracts.

Our resident business experts will also be on hand to support you and answer all your usual business queries.
