I recently had the pleasure of hearing Berry's presentation on the anatomy of an effective proposal. Last week I went to craft a different kind of proposal than I've done before. I pulled out my notes and handout from the presentation. I carefully reconsidered all his points and added some new elements into the proposal, changed some long time formatting habits and tweaked some other things. It was fun to do, looked worlds better than my previous proposals and hit the nail on the head. I got the contract too! Berry's insights are amazing! Any business would benefit from his guidance.

I have found Berry to be a master connector who has a passionate desire to enrich the prosperity of others without regard to personal gain.
