This book reminds us of the finer detail required to write, produce & deliver a piece of work that will not only sell a product, but also the excellence of a firm." BKDI Architects, Calgary Edmonton Journal"Hundreds of publishers’ offerings cross the business desk every year… How to Write Proposals, Sales Letters & Reports is in the top dozen volumes. This entry by Edmonton corporate writer Neil Sawers is one of those self-help books for those in sales and marketing who need information on basic business practices in small, easy-to-digest chunks. Sawers breaks down the whole process, from start to finish, for such tasks as writing business proposals (and how to respond to requests for proposals) to sales letters and reports. First drafts, editing, client contacts, it’s all here in a handy reference that, while not guaranteeing success, at least points those aspiring to a sales career down the right path with useful advice, along with illustrative examples."
