At our recent Minority GovCon Summit, Andrea Grant, CDSP shared how one contractor turned consistent giving into a $500K contract win using her revolutionary Ask/Offer Framework. Want to know the strategy that's transforming how successful contractors build relationships? Check out our latest blog featuring Andrea's proven framework for creating meaningful connections that convert into contracts. Ready to transform your approach?

From her 25-year corporate experience and success with federal contracts, Sharvette shared how a single contracting officer reached out to her based solely on her professional presence - leading to a significant contract win. Want to know her secrets to being seen, remembered, and chosen in the federal marketplace? Check out our latest blog featuring Sharvette's expert blueprint for GovCon visibility. P.S.

🎖️ This Veterans Day, we're not just honoring service - we're empowering veteran entrepreneurs! As we witness veteran-owned businesses thriving in our GovCon community, it's inspiring to see how military experience translates into federal contracting success.

The federal government aims to award at least 5% of contracting dollars to Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses. With programs like VetCert, Boots to Business, and the Veterans Business Outreach Centers, the path to government contracting has never been more accessible. In this article, I break down: ✅ Essential certification programs for veteran entrepreneurs ✅ Strategic partnership opportunities in federal contracting ✅ Success stories from our veteran contractors ✅ Step-by-step action plan for entering the federal marketplace To our veterans: Your service continues through entrepreneurship. Let's connect and explore how your military experience can become your business advantage. #VeteransDay2024 #VeteranOwned #GovernmentContracting #VetBiz #SmallBusiness #Entrepreneurship #SDVOSB #VOSB #FederalContracting #BusinessGrowth
