Writing a quotation a buyer can defend internally: structure, assumptions, validity, next step
Ensure your sales team's quotations close deals and withstand internal scrutiny.
The moment it goes wrong
A poorly structured quotation can halt a promising deal. Buyers struggle to justify it internally, leading to delays and lost revenue. This often results in a stalled sales pipeline and wasted effort from your team.
What changes after this course
Your team will write quotations that clearly articulate value and meet internal defense criteria. They will confidently explain pricing and assumptions to procurement. You will receive a training record for your team and individual certificates of completion.
How long it takes, by who is listening
Nobody spends a day in a classroom. Every module exists in three lengths; a person takes the length their role needs, and every length ends with the same recorded questionnaire, so the training record is complete either way.

What is in the course, module by module
5 modules. Under each title are the three things the listener can do afterwards; the audio itself runs 10 to 50 minutes depending on the length chosen. Each module ends with a multiple-choice questionnaire whose result is recorded per person for your auditor. Your human-resources or quality manager decides what counts as passed and when a level is retaken.
