2 heads can be better than one

I was interested to hear about Skillfair member Rob Watling's experience of looking for someone to join their bid team. I often hear people say "I would have gone for that project but I think I'm too small/haven't got 3 years accounts/we're missing one small area of expertise' etc." so why not give co-bidding a whirl?

Rob needed someone with specific skills to bid with him on a piece of work - he advertised his requirements on Skillfair and in his words "We had 6 replies, 3 of them good enough to keep the details on file, and one of these good enough to include on this bid. So thanks. We wouldn't have been bidding otherwise."

Has anyone else had any experience of this?
