Want the "Fee Proposals That Convert" Workshop Replay?

Yesterday’s “How To Write Fee Proposals That Convert: 3 Steps to Lift Your Win Rate” workshop was one of the most practical and game-changing sessions I’ve ever run. 

 

Engineering and built environment consultancy owners showed up ready to finally fix weak, vanilla proposals - and walked away with the tools to start winning more projects, more consistently, and at stronger margins. 

 

And the feedback’s been incredible: 

 

“Exactly what we needed - our proposals finally stand out.” 

“Practical, simple, and immediately usable - I’m already updating our templates.” 

“This gave me confidence that clients will say yes without asking for discounts.” 

 

A few people have reached out saying they couldn’t make it live - so I’m making the full replay available until Friday.

Your Proposals Aren’t Supposed to be Bedtime Stories

Let’s be honest. 

 

Most fee proposals read like a cross between a tax return and an IKEA manual. 

 

They’re boring. 

 

They’re filled with technical jargon. 

 

And they have clients skipping to the end to see if you're the 'cheapest'. 

 

Because here’s the truth: 

 

If your proposal isn’t persuading, it’s boring them to tears. 

 

And bored clients buy from someone else. 

 

The client either: 

 — Hands the work to a competitor who actually sells their value 

 — Or emails you back with, “Can you cut your fee?” 

 

Neither is fun. 

 

Let’s fix that. 

 

Next Tuesday, I’m running an online workshop: 

 

How To Write Fee Proposals That Convert // 3 Steps to Lift Your Win Rate 

 — Tuesday 21 October 

 — 11:45am – 1:15pm NSW time 

 — $100 to join

Stop Losing Projects You Should Have Won

When we grew our consultancy from $3M to $30M, we thought we had proposals nailed. 

 

Leads were coming in. Projects were getting bigger. The team was growing fast. 

 

But there was one problem. 

 

We kept losing work we should have won. 

 

Time and again, we’d earn the opportunity to bid… send out the proposal… and watch it fall flat. 

 

The client would pick a competitor. 

 

Or they’d come back asking us to cut our fees. 

 

And the opportunity we worked so hard for was gone. 

 

Sound familiar? 

 

The truth is, most consultancy owners don’t lose because they can’t generate opportunities. They lose because their fee proposals don’t convert. 

 

 — Proposals that read like boring, vanilla templates, not persuasive sales tools 

 — Proposals packed with technical jargon clients don’t understand 

 — Proposals that focus on cost, not value, so the client skips straight to the bottom line 

 

That’s the problem. 

 

And next week, I’ll show you how to fix it.

Let’s Fix Your Fee Proposals

Next week I’m running an online workshop called “How To Write Fee Proposals That Convert.” 

 

It’s designed to help you stop wasting opportunities at the proposal stage - and start turning more of them into signed projects. 

 

If you’re tired of doing the hard work to win the opportunity, only to lose it with a weak, vanilla proposal that doesn’t convert… 

 

If clients keep coming back asking you to cut your fees… or worse, they hand the project to a competitor… 

 

Or you just want your proposals to consistently win higher-margin work and make “yes” the default answer… 

 

This is your chance to fix it. 

 

I’ll walk you through the exact 3 steps top-performing consultancies are using to: 

 — Write proposals that sell value, not just price 

 — Position themselves as first choice with A-grade clients 

 — Lift their conversion rates and win more of the right work 

 

Tuesday 21 October – 11:45am NSW time

Stop Writing Weak Fee Proposals

You’ve done the hard work. 

 

You’ve got the opportunity to write a fee proposal. 

 

Your marketing is working. Your BD efforts are paying off. 

 

The chance to win the project & more work is right there. 

 

But then the proposal goes out… and it falls flat. 

 

The client picks a competitor. 

 

Or they come back asking you to cut your fees. 

 

And the opportunity you fought for - gone. 

 

That’s the problem. 

 

Most consultancies don’t lose because they can’t find opportunities to bid for work.  

 

They lose because their proposals don’t convert. 

 

And every time it happens, you’re not just wasting time. 

 

You’re leaving serious money on the table. 

 

It’s time to fix it. 

 

Next week, I’m running a 90-minute online workshop to show you how.

The LinkedIn Mistake That’s Costing You Millions

Most consultancy owners are on LinkedIn. 

 

They post updates. Share wins. Maybe even write the occasional article. 

 

But months go by — and nothing changes. No real leads. No qualified calls. No new clients. 

 

Here’s why: 

 

— Your Content Is Too Vanilla — 

 

Most posts read like generic updates. They’re flat. Forgettable. Your clients scroll straight past. 

 

Your content needs to stand out. 

 

It should be exciting — giving updates about you, your office, and your unique perspective on what’s happening in the marketplace. 

 

 

— No Call to Action — 

 

Even strong posts fizzle out. 

 

Without a clear next step, there’s no conversion. Attention doesn’t equal action. 

 

 

— No Consistency — 

 

Posting once every few weeks won’t cut it. 

 

Consistency builds visibility, trust, and momentum. 

 

 

— No System Behind the Content — 

 

It’s random. Scattergun. A post here, a post there. 

 

Without a framework, it’s just noise. 

 

 

— No Messaging Strat...

Want the Pipeline by Christmas Workshop Replay?

Yesterday’s “Full Pipeline by Christmas: 5 Strategies to Win Work Now” workshop was one of the most practical and timely sessions I’ve ever run. 

 

Engineering and built environment consultancy owners showed up ready to learn how to line up work now, secure their BD pipeline well into 2026, and avoid the December–January profit bleed that quietly kills margins every year. 

 

And the feedback’s been amazing: 

 

“Exactly what we needed before heading into Christmas.” 

“Practical, simple, and immediately usable - already lining up new projects.” 

“This gave me confidence knowing my pipeline won’t dry up in January.” 

 

A few people have reached out saying they couldn’t make it live - so I’m making the full replay available until Friday.
