Significado
Proposing a deal or service.
Contexto cultural
Poles value 'konkret' (concreteness). When you make an offer, be prepared with numbers and facts. Small talk is shorter than in the US or UK before getting to the 'oferta'. In the US, 'making an offer' is often the start of a long back-and-forth. In Poland, the first offer is often closer to the final price than in highly 'bazaar-style' cultures. Making a direct offer can sometimes be seen as too aggressive. In Poland, it is seen as professional and efficient. Like Poland, Germany values written offers. A verbal 'zrobię ofertę' is usually followed quickly by an email with a PDF.
Use 'złożyć' for emails
If you are writing an email to a company, use 'Chciałbym złożyć ofertę'. It makes you sound more professional instantly.
Watch the ending
Don't say 'zrobić oferta'. The '-ę' is crucial for being understood correctly as the object of the action.
