General information only — tools do not replace qualified legal, tax, or financial advice where you need it.
Before you start
Gather the services you sell to the public sector, geography, and realistic contract sizes. Open the tool when you have twenty quiet minutes — rushed inputs produce weak drafts.
Step 1 — Generate a first pass
Work through the fields honestly. For Council Bids Finder, the goal is breadth first: you can narrow later.
Step 2 — Edit ruthlessly
Cut jargon, fix numbers you guessed, and delete anything you could not defend in a meeting. Always read the buyer’s official notice and portal; tool output can lag or miss edge cases, and you must qualify each opportunity yourself.
Step 3 — Save and share
Copy to Word or Google Docs, or send the export to someone you trust. Pair the draft with the pillar guide in this series for context.
