Andy nails it (yet again). If you’re used to using RFPs in other areas of your business, he puts forth some good reasons to not do so when contracting for professional work.
BONUS: “Treat any professional as a commodity and you will have effectively destroyed any chance for success.”
Gentlemen do not associate with the kind of woman who delights in compelling men to fight each other to win her attentions. Everyone knows that her choice is not based on actual suitability and mutual respect, but rather on sheer competitive success in the arena shaped by her wanton ego. Such women are relegated to randy brutes, not gentlemen suitors. Respectable members of the community have slight regard and particular names for this sort of woman.
