💼 Proposals. Tenders. RFPs. Whatever you call them, they’re the necessary evil of the agency world. But here’s the million-dollar question—is the way we’re doing them actually the best way?
In this episode of Creative & Code, Jay Boston breaks down the flawed reality of the proposal process, from time-wasting tender portals to unpaid pitch work that businesses expect agencies to deliver for free. We’re asking:
🚨 Why do agencies spend weeks on proposals, only to be ghosted?
💰 Should businesses pay a stipend for shortlisted pitches?
⚖️ How can brands run fairer, more effective tenders?
⭐ If nothing else, should businesses at least leave a 5-star Google review for great proposals?
It’s time to rethink the proposal process—because agencies deserve better, and businesses deserve a selection process that actually works.
