Chicago, Illinois, United States

What Chicago is known for, and what it means for your bid.
Chicago's economy leans towards companies that sell to other companies, in logistics, trading, manufacturing, food and consumer goods. Buyers from that world care about reliability and process. A proposal that explains how the work will be run usually beats one that leads with creative ideas.
ERP, CRM & enterprise systems
What clients screen forExperience with the exact platform and module, whether that's Salesforce, SAP, Dynamics or Odoo, and with businesses of a similar size. Certifications help, but a description of a real implementation helps more.
How we open the proposalName the platform and the module and describe one implementation of a similar size. Make clear which parts are configuration and which would need custom development.
Data, analytics & AI
What clients screen forEvidence that you understood the data before you suggested a model or a dashboard. Vague talk about AI is the most common reason these proposals get skipped.
How we open the proposalSay back the question the client is really asking of their data. Name the approach you'd try first and why, and describe what a first deliverable would look like after a week.
Digital marketing & SEO
What clients screen forProof of a result on a similar account, with the starting point shown. Marketing clients are wary of screenshots with no context, and of anyone who promises rankings.
How we open the proposalOpen with one thing you noticed about the client's own site or ads. Follow it with a past result, before and after, and say what you'd check in the first week.
