Marketing for Bid-ready Firms

Marketing that makes your consultancy credible, competitive and tender-ready

I help environmental and engineering consultancies win more work with case studies, bios, websites and capability packs that evaluators trust.

How I help

You know your consultancy can delivering – but too often, tenders are lost on presentation. Larger firms can look more convincing on paper, even when their expertise isn’t stronger. If your case studies are rushed, your consultant bios inconsistent, or your website outdated, you risk being overlooked for contracts you should be winning. It’s frustrating, costly, and completely avoidable.

I make your consultancy look as strong on paper as it is in practice.  That means case studies written in a clear, structured way that evaluators can quickly understand. Consultant bios that highlight relevant expertise without drowning decision-makers in jargon. Websites that project authority, even if you’re a smaller firm competing with bigger players. And capability statements that back up every proposal with professional, consistent evidence.

This isn’t about spin or glossy campaigns. It’s about building the tools that show your expertise clearly, so you win more work more often.

Case study example

Client: Small heritage & conservation consultancy


Challenge: Their old website focused on services, not outcomes – and they had no case studies to support credibility.


Solution: I worked with their team to develop a series of focused case studies and rewrote key web pages to highlight authority, experience and results.


Outcome: Within one month, they received a website enquiry from a new client requesting project support and received positive feedback on the clarity of their subsequent proposal documents.

I’ve always been a sceptic about digital marketing. But working with Lisa on our market positioning changed that. She gave us the voice our clients needed to hear – focused, relevant, and grounded in what matters.

Already have someone handling marketing?

That’s fine – I’m not here to take over your team.

I work with internal teams and external designers all the time. If you already have people you trust, I’ll collaborate to fill the strategic and content gaps they don’t cover – especially when it comes to positioning, writing, and messaging for bids.
