“Working with Utley Strategies saved me loads of time and I am confident we submitted a quality RFQ that will address all of our client’s questions and concerns.”

Tyler K.,

“Demi is a talented writer. She cared for our project and understood our needs. She was super quick and efficient, and easy to work with. She adjusted her writings to align with our proposal’s direction multiple times - will definitely love to work with Demi!”

-Hitomi T.,

Co-Founder, Studio Newwork

“Before working with Utley Strategies I felt pretty much lost when it comes to the proper way to organize a proposal. I gained confidence that our message is strong for all of our proposals moving forward. Our proposals definitely went from looking JV to accomplished and professional.”

Michael L.

“I was overwhelmed and unsure of an appropriate route to take to begin the response to the RFP. I was able to provide the information and Utley Strategies created the content perfectly. I submitted a proposal that I was confident in, and we will use the same content in future proposals.”

-Melissa Dolney,

Owner, Arcade Drivers School

“I needed a professional to assist with responding to an RFQ. I now feel confident in our ability to quickly turn around RFQs in the future. We developed great content that could be used for future proposals as well as marketing materials and website updates.”

-Eric C.

“How do I show buyers why we’re a better choice than our top competitor?” 

When it comes to proposals, this question is asked again and again.

You may have done everything right. Checked off all of the boxes from the RFP. Met with the customer. Created engaging graphics. Developed a sound pricing strategy. 

But for some reason, they continue to win while you continue to…not.
