The Little Shop of Proposal Horrors: A Survival Guide

Workshops

APMP Accreditation Workshop Scheduled

Strategic Proposals LLC will hold a 1-day workshop at the Cobb Galleria Centre on Thursday, October 29. This workshop, to be led by BJ Lownie, PPF.APMP, will help candidates to review proposal best practices and prepare to take the accreditation exam. The workshop will cover the APMP syllabus and review key concepts and information covered by the exam. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants will take the exam. Results will be given individually immediately following the exam.

BJ held a similar accreditation workshop before the 2008 SPAC, with a good turnout and excellent feedback on the value of the training. For additional information and registration, check out the APMP Accreditation Workshop website.

Billion Dollar Proposal Graphics Workshop Announced

Mike Parkinson, APMP Fellow and 24 Hour Company partner, will conduct a proposal graphics workshop on Thursday, October 29 at the Sheraton Suites Galleria, the host hotel for the 2009 SPAC (see below). The Billion Dollar Proposal Graphics workshop will help proposal professionals increase their win rate and lower costs by turning text and ideas into winning graphics, make any complex idea easy to understand, get graphics right the first time, cut writing time in half (proposals almost write themselves with the right graphics), and learn rendering tools and secrets.
