Strategy Number FIVE: BE RESPONSIVE, BE COST-EFFECTIVE, BE CREATIVE, AND PERSEVERE
This strategy points to the fact that corporations are looking for vendors who can help them meet the demands of constant change. They want to work with firms that are prepared to shift gears when needed, offer a competitive price, and contribute to problem-solving. They also value professionalism and the willingness to start small and build to larger contracts.
The women’s business enterprises that have successfully faced the challenges of these varied demands give patience and perseverance a lot of credit. They also recognize the importance of already having systems in place when presenting a proposal.
