Re: Help with RFP for School Website

Click here<http://www.mstonerblog.com/index.php/blog/comments/670/ideas_for=
_writing_your_rfp/

a link to a great blog post about crafting website RFPs written by
Katie
Jennings at mStoner. Katie provides a very helpful framework to think abou=
t
as you craft an RFP from the perspective of the responding firm.

I would also strongly recommend looking at mStoner as a possible partner.
mStoner was George School's partner in our website design. They are seriou=
s
about helping schools create a "smart, sustainable solution" that truly
reflects what unique about your school.

Please let me know if you would like to talk about the process. We got lot=
s
of good advice, and I'm happy to pay it forward.
