According to SAVO-s , 78 percent of companies are customizing content manually. Given this figure, it-s not surprising that 70 percent are concerned that sales content, including proposals, is not accurate. Generic or inaccurate proposals that don-t align to the prospect-s unique needs, mindset and buying cycle can quickly turn an opportunity into a lost deal.

Many companies still use a manual proposal development process based on a static template or a previously submitted proposal that resulted in a sale. Such processes are time-consuming, error-prone, and result in the submission of a proposal containing content which is not compelling, up-to-date and/or compliant.
In contrast, companies using proposal automation produce better quality proposals, enjoy a 27 percent shorter sales cycles, 105 percent larger deal size and 26 percent more of their sellers achieve quota, according to the Aberdeen Group. Executives are realizing is a necessity in the sales process to reduce time, effort and costs.
“Businesses today require intelligent proposals that align to those with a track record of success in similar situations,” said Mark O-Connell, president and CEO of SAVO. “Companies can maximize their CRM systems by integrating proposal production and storage, making it both convenient for the sellers and efficient and insightful for management.”
