I’ve recently been getting more requests to submit proposals for scanning work. I’ve been learning to read site plans and schematics, which has been a steep but valuable learning curve. I’ve been watching videos and leaning on my field experience to figure out the time and resources each job will require. Where I’m still unsure is whether my proposals are hitting the mark. I’ve seen some examples online, but I’m not confident if mine are clear, complete, and presented in a way that decision-makers will take seriously. For those of you with experience reviewing or sending proposals, I’d appreciate any tips on what you look for when deciding whether to approve or accept a bid. What are the key points that make a proposal stand out to you? If you’re open to it, I’d be happy to send you a sample privately so you can give me feedback. Any advice from people who have been on either side of the process would be greatly appreciated.

This was my 3rd time at Hanscom AFB in MA. It is always a great group. Thanks to the other instructors @Bill Hamor

"If you are not growing your Network, you are not growing your Net Worth!" What do you think of this statement?

Hello Sean, a lot of things in common. My name is Donnie Amado, owner of A & L Trucking and Transportaion, a veteran-owned trucking and transportation based in Brockton, Massachusetts. I currently work for the VA healthcare system and own a small real estate investment Co. as well. I have serval properties in different towns on the southshore. I am always looking to network with others in construction and trucking and anything that would grow my business as for some reason the trucking seems to be going a little slow. I am also a father of 2 and enjoy spending time with family, friends and the dog. I enjoy skiing, golfing and being outdoors and of course the beach. If you'd like to connect, please shoot me a message.

I recently graduated with a BFA in Photography and Graphic Design. I am in the very early stages of business development. I want to start a real estate and drone photography business. If there is anybody our there who has gone down this path I would love to connect and pick up any advice you may have to offer. Thanks, happy to be a part of the community.
