Former Agency Owners Create New Web Site to Help Navigate Maze of Government RFP's
Public relations and advertising agencies face a daunting task in discovering about government contracting opportunities and how to pursue them. A new web site designed by former agency owners helps newcomers and pros alike.
Online, May 17, 2010 (Newswire.com) - A group of former agency owners have launched a new web site designed to simplify and streamline the process of locating, analyzing and responding to RFP's (Request for Proposals)..
The Sole Source (www.the-sole-source.com) provides new business leads for public relations, marketing and advertising agencies.
Finding, tracking and weeding through Request for Proposals (RFPs) is time-consuming and tedious - especially for government contracts -- according to the creators, a collaboration of former agency owners. The Sole Source is designed to eliminate that chore, and provides inside information and expert analysis of individual opportunities.
Free subscriptions to the service as available at the-sole-source.com
The Sole Source researches RFPs and other new client opportunities through a variety of sources, screens and analyzes opportunities and provides summaries by email with links to RFPs.
Traditional RFP services for government contracting merely provide links to the government sites where RFP's may be downloaded - often at additional cost and requiring cumbersome individual registrations. The Sole Source eliminates these steps, and provides advice on whether the opportunity is worth pursuing. As former agency owners the founders have deep experience in the pursuit of new business, including the complicated process of local, state and federal government contracting.
Ultimately, according to the founders, the goal is to create a community where opportunities can be discussed and information exchanged by members. Pursuing an RFP is an expensive and time-consuming process, and any resource that can improve the quality of a "go/no-go" decision is extremely valuable.
Saving busy agency executives time and money is The Sole Source's ultimate goal.
