i need this!

You'd think doing an architect RFP without proposal mistakes would be simple, right? But it's not.

And I say this as someone who spent 20 years as in-house marketing in architecture firms - I've done a million of them! So I KNOW. And I remember what it felt like when things were new...

Let me guess - you spend a ton of time (and money!) on proposals - without results. You don't know what the problem is (the winning firms are no better than you) and you think you are making proposal mistakes but you really don't have time for this. This isn't even what you DO. Frustration (or desperation) builds - until the next time, when they again say you "came in second." What are you supposed to do?

It's vital you know how fixing proposal mistakes in one day impacts your firm

Imagine you win the next project. Everyone is so happy you get referrals, more projects, and stop stressing about money. Your work gets noticed and you win an award... and another... and another! Visibility and word of mouth has you so busy you choose what to work on. How does that sound? It's possible... take the first step and download the materials.

i want this for you!

There's another reason - the risks if you don't. Financial, potential lost staff, or even the firm. You likely regularly go up against firms with in-house marketing. If so, you need every advantage you can get so you can better compete with them.

Consider your legacy. Better proposals, better chance of winning. Easier time paying bills, supporting others, and leaving your mark on the world. You are TALENTED designers NOT impacting lives - don't lose that due to proposal mistakes. Especially since there are easy fixes for almost everything!

But here's the thing: You can be the best designer in the world, but if your potential client cannot see what makes you different from another firm – or uniquely qualified for THEIR project – you’ve got a problem. You won’t get the client.

One day of edits can determine winning and losing the next proposal - and BEYOND. Go get it!

Hey, I'm Barb, and I'm obsessed with helping architects win projects

My nearly 20 years as an in-house and consulting marketer in (mostly) architecture firms has not only shown me what architects have in common, it has shown me how you stand apart from each other — uniquely positioning me to show that to clients. My specialty is figuring out EXACTLY how to connect your unique qualifications with what clients need — and making sure it is REALLY clear to everyone.
