Bidding is not only about money.

With 25 years of experience as a top photo representative Frank has an impeccable reputation of fairness and professionalism. He’s estimated hundreds of jobs both big and small. He’ll share with you his creative process in formulating a bid. He’ll breakdown, in detail the process by which an estimate is put together.
Frank will share his insights on various elements of bidding from preparation, pricing, estimating, and negotiating to producing, billing and follow-up. This class will go into the actual details of being awarded jobs. This is the real thing!
