The GovCon Starter Pack

You don't need connections to win your first government contract. You need a roadmap.

I spent 25 years as a government contract specialist, reviewing proposals and making award decisions. Small businesses rarely lost because their work wasn't good enough. They lost because nobody showed them how the process actually works. This guide fixes that.

No insider connections? The government is required to buy from small businesses like yours, and this guide shows you where those opportunities live. New to this? It starts at zero and explains every term in plain language. Wondering if it actually works? This is what I saw succeed and fail from inside the agencies making the awards, not recycled internet advice.
