What Accra is known for, and what it means for your bid.
Accra is Ghana's capital and its hub for technology and services. For half the year it's on the same clock as London, so working with British clients on the same day is easy. Mornings on the American East Coast fall in the Accra afternoon.
Web & software development
What clients screen forA finished project in the same stack, and some sign that you read the technical brief properly. Clients in this category have often been let down by a developer who said yes to everything.
How we open the proposalName the stack and the hardest part of the brief in your first two lines. Link one build that's close to it and say what the first milestone would deliver.
Virtual assistance & customer support
What clients screen forReliability, overlap with their working hours and good written English. These clients are hiring for the long term, so they read a proposal for care and aren't looking for flair.
How we open the proposalSay which hours you cover in the client's time zone and name the tools from their brief that you already use. Then describe one process you ran from start to finish for a past client.
Design & branding
What clients screen forA portfolio piece from the client's own industry. Design clients look before they read, so the wrong sample can lose you the job before your first sentence.
How we open the proposalAttach the one piece of past work that's closest. Describe the problem it solved and leave the tools out, then say how many concepts and revision rounds the price covers.
