Unravel the mystery of InDesign and take your proposals to the next level! If the InDesign home screen sends shivers down your spine, we can help! SMPS is hosting a one-day, marathon training session that will introduce beginners to one of the most powerful tools in the proposal arsenal.

We’ll cover basics, such as creating new documents, applying styles and placing graphics to ensure your proposals look polished. Join us Tuesday October 25 and get started on your journey to becoming an InDesign hero by revealing the many mysteries of the program.

Drawing on the philosophy of the ancient Chinese military strategist Sun Tzu in The Art of War, Shiloh Spriggs of AECOM will share winning strategies you can incorporate into your own battle plans for victory with her presentation, Capture Planning to Win! 

The plan of attack is carried through with well crafted proposals, which Lori Moody of Moody and Associates will discuss during the second half of the workshop.  Her presentation, Proposal Best Practices, will focus on developing a theme which is carried out through all sections of a proposal, from the executive summary, to projects, resumes, and approach narratives.

This half-day workshop provides “business battle training” for all levels of marketing and business development professionals – coordinators, technical staff, business developers, marketing managers – in short, to all those who are interested in learning or improving their business development and proposal writing skills. Presented by leaders in our industry, these workshops are designed as hands-on, interactive sessions to give you practical tips for bringing your firm more business by developing new clients and writing winning proposals!
