Writing Business Bids and Proposals For Dummies

Bought the book to help me prepare for the APMP Certification. BTW…it is listed in the APMP website as a good resource to that end. Like it: easy to understand. Thorough explanations provided. Would have liked more examples BUT has an appendix with a URL that takes you to a website with several good templates.

Wow. These authors absolutely "get" what it takes to win in a highly competitive marketplace. This book is easy to understand without being dull. Although it's the best introduction to proposal writing I've ever read, it's also suitable for those who are well versed in the subject matter. It's refreshing to read something so insightful. No matter your experience, it will absolutely change the way you approach proposal writing. Highly, HIGHLY recommend it.

Its a good read and helpful.

APMP Foundation study material

I searched the reviews to see if anyone else had used this when taking the APMP test but could not find the answer. This book DOES have everything you need to pass the APMP foundation level test, and it is quite a bit cheaper than the other book APMP recommended for the test.

Reiterates information over and over but it’s a good read for beginners.

The authors of this book have more collective experience on this topic than virtually anyone in the business and they deliver that experience in easy-to-understand segments. This is my new go-to book when I need a reminder of best practice proposal process and writing. Thank you to co-author Charlie Divine for my signed copy!

Books on basics of accounting and doing bids needed for son's new LLC IN CONSTRUCTION. SOME AREAS ARE NEW SO SOME BASIC INFO IS REQUIRED.

It's a first step guide for all stepping into proposal development. Written in very simple language. The only thing I thought it needs to improve is the number of examples.

I've been using Writing Business Bids and Proposals For Dummies as a study guide for the APMP exams, and it's pretty good so far. I'm just a few chapters in, but it's already proving to be a valuable resource. It's helping me in my job, and I'm getting interested in taking the exam now! Highly recommend this book for anyone looking to prepare for the APMP certification.

Perfect! Contains everything you learn on an APMP course but for a fraction of the cost.

Good, informative, and useful read. Worth the money.

If you are looking for a good reference in best practices in bid and proposal development and management, this is THE book. The authors cover from start to the end what you need to know and be aware of, the tricks and tips. This book is now my closest companion and reference guide whenever I stumble upon a problem during my bid and proposal management process. Note: I am an APMP-certified bid manager; thus, my review maybe biased. However, any bid/proposal manager would benefit from this book. Write to me if you want to know more.
