What's this site all about?
PropLIBRARY is a site with a TON of useful information about business development and winning proposals. There are hundreds of free articles that explain the theory and foundations supporting our recommendations, and hundreds more for our paying subscribers that provide the checklists, templates, forms, and process guidance needed for immediate implementation. We also provide consulting services to help companies implement our recommendations and win their proposals.
Are you a proposal or business development consultant?
We have several ways that we work with consultants. We don't run a placement service, but we can support your growth with training, tools, and opportunities to promote yourself. Together we can expand what you can offer your customers and help you maximize those relationships, while keeping you up front and in control.
If you are a product company or have a similar audience, let's explore how we can become partners.

Speaking and training

He'd love to speak at your event, but can't do them all. You are welcome to ask. Let us know when, where, about the audience, and the topics you think will excite them. You can call us at 1-800-848-1563 or contact him through our site.
