Prosper borrower, lender, and group leader Sean Bauer has just published a new book about Prosper - The Complete Guide to Prosper.com. This 263 page book is a solid starter to help new borrowers and lenders avoid common mistakes and get started on the right foot with Prosper.Most borrowers on Prosper do not get funded. Those that do often create more than one listing before they finally get a loan. The primary aim of this book is to provide advice based on research and experience to help these new borrowers create listings that will get funded.
This is a list of the chapters:
- How and why Prosper.com will revolutionize America
- Getting started on Prosper.com: Creating an account
- Borrowing: Could/should you borrow with Prosper?
- Borrowing: Creating your borrower's listing
- Borrowing: Endorsements give you a helping hand
- Borrowing: Managing your loan
- Groups: Take advantage of their huge potential
- Groups: Starting your own
- Groups: Manage your group for success
- Lending: Becoming a lender
- Lending: Listings
- Prosper.com fees (Yes, they charge!)
- Tools for using Prosper.com
- Forums and conclusions: You've seen it all now
As I read the book I was reminded just how fast the marketplace is changing. It's hard to print a book about Prosper and stay current. There are several marketplace changes in the past few weeks and months that are not mentioned in the book. For example, the book does not mention the recent change in collection agencies, the changes in the official forums, or any of the changes announced at Prosper Days such as portfolio plans.
Although the marketplace is rapidly changing, The Complete Guide to Prosper.com does provides current, practical useful advice to help any new borrower or lender. If this book resonates with the P2P marketplace I see Bauer publishing a new edition every year.
