Proposals2Win.com for sale

— LRicci at 3:46 pm on Wednesday, January 11, 2012

One of my orphan URLs is Proposals2Win.com

If you’d like this URL, and are among my circle, let me know. I’ll sell it to you for cheap. Real cheap. Like in, buy me a Latte or two.

I just hate to let it back into the wild for a URL pirate to pickup for resale.

Show Me the Money: Stories from Winning Proposals and Where to Save Money Winning Work

— LRicci at 10:57 am on Tuesday, March 1, 2011

I’ll be speaking and moderating a workshop for SMPS in Pewaukee, Wisconsin on March 17. If you are in the area, you are welcome to join us!
I’ll be telling stories and describing how we lifted firms from tough times. And the crowd at SMPS is always fun and full of good ideas they are willing to share. Registration is here: http://smpswisconsin.org/halfday.html

My compatriot, Fritz Grutzner of Brandgarten will be hosting the morning session, working on Branding. This is important because your reputation arrives well before the proposal, and some attention here will prevent you having the kind of problems proposal managers at Enron and Microsoft suffer(ed): Enron Vs.
