Questions
smart designers ask.

Won't every designer bid on the same leads?

Some will. But most designers skip RFPs because finding and reading them takes hours, and that's exactly why they're worth pursuing: serious buyers, real budgets, and far fewer competitors than a marketplace post.

What if I don't win anything?

RFPs are a numbers game, and your first win may take a few bids. If Pro isn't worth it to you within 30 days, email us for a full refund.

Can a solo freelancer really win an RFP?

Yes, especially smaller ones. That's why every lead gets a fit score and a list of requirements, like insurance or in-state rules, that could rule you out before you spend a night on it.

Why are some details hidden on the free list?

The free list gives you two complete leads and a preview of the rest so you can see what you're missing. Pro unlocks the organization, contact, original posting, and full analysis for every lead.

What kinds of projects are included?

Branding and identity, websites and web apps, print and publication design, marketing campaigns, illustration, signage, and UX work.

Do you take a cut of what I win?

Never. You bid directly with the organization, and the work and the relationship are yours.

I have a project to post. How?

Email projects@briefdrop.co. Posting is free, and your project goes in front of designers who read carefully.
