The Go Succeed Start team hosts this in-person ‘Tender and Bid-Writing Essentials’ masterclass.

This session is designed to move you beyond “just submitting” bids and equip you with the skills, tools, and confidence to consistently write winning tenders. Whether you’re completely new to bidding or looking to sharpen your approach, you’ll walk away with practical checklists, templates, and strategies you can immediately apply.

Key Objectives for Participants

• Shift Your Mindset – Understand tendering as a business development tool, not an admin exercise.
• Evaluate Opportunities – Learn how to find tenders early, assess if they’re worth your time, and avoid wasted effort.
• Make Better Decisions – Use a proven Go/No-Go framework to only pursue bids you can realistically win.
• Write to Win – Develop clear, confident, and compelling answers that score highly with evaluators.
• Maximise ROI – Discover how to use feedback (win or lose) to improve your future bids and success rate.

Interactive & Practical Format

• Live demos and real-world examples
• Hands-on exercises (e.g. rewriting answers, applying checklists)
• Group discussions and polls to share experiences
• Step-by-step toolkits you can take away

In short: Join this workshop if you want to save time, bid smarter, and increase your chances of winning contracts.
