Czech term or phrase: Obchodní nabídka
Hello,


I'm trying to find the most appropriate translation for "obchodní nabídka" as used in the following passage?


"- pomocí filtrů lze sestavit seznam vhodných kontaktů pro danou kampaň, obchodní nabídku, distribuci obecných sdělení a další".


commercial offer

business offer



Or, would business proposal be alright here?

Many thanks for your help!

Get away from "offer"


Explanation:
Bit difficult to say without more context but personally I always shy away from "offer" for nabidka. If it is what a company is "offering" then it is a "range [of goods or services]" or you could chew it about and put "goods/services offered". You cannot use "offer" as a noun in the sense of nabidka though if a company is "offering/flogging" something. A commercial proposal is some sort of plan and that wouldn't work either.

An "offer" also implies that a discount is up for grabs....
