What do public relations and tendering have in common? More than you think. And their shared traits certainly make a case for both to be treated as perennial priorities in your business. In our latest blog, BidWrite's Anne-Marie Tripp, CF APMP and Profile Media's Sue Papadoulis provide an insightful perspective and helpful advice that applies equally well to public relations and tendering. More importantly, they look at how implementing this advice can help you position your organisation favourably and prepare for targeted tendering success. Read more here: https://hubs.la/Q02VB7WF0

Yesterday, we kicked off the “How to Craft Irresistible Tenders and Prove Financial Strength” series in Hobart with BidWrite and Industry Capability Network, hosted by Business Tasmania. Today, we’re in Launceston. 📍 Hobart ✅ 📍 Launceston – Today 📍 Devonport – Tomorrow We’re focused on helping SMEs understand their financials better. This isn’t just for their benefit—it’s for enterprises and government organisations, too. When suppliers know their strengths and weaknesses, it makes them more reliable and easier to work with. It leads to more accurate pricing, stronger partnerships, and a better fit for long-term goals. Everyone benefits when financials are clear and transparent.

A huge thanks to Industry Capability Network - WA for having us at their Setting Up For Success Workshop last week! David Lunn always enjoys presenting to such an engaged audience, especially alongside other insightful industry experts.

We’re really looking forward to delivering this training in Tasmania with Shavantha Mallawa, CEO of CreditSource Pty Ltd – one of our strategic partners.    We’ve always held the view that understanding both sides of the buying/selling process makes for better bidding. Having a clear understanding of how procurement teams operate ought to be ‘compulsory reading’ for any organisations looking to win contracts via the tendering process.    Thanks also to another strategic partner Industry Capability Network who share this view and have been such a driving force in bringing this training to life.   Successful tendering is such a multi-faceted activity, and it’s great to be at the stage where we can call upon the specialised expertise of our partner network to help us draw the bigger picture of what it really takes to win more often and more easily.   

Delve into the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on productivity at this FACCI - French-Australian Chamber of Commerce & Industry event in Queensland next Wednesday morning.
