You’ve worked hard to prepare your company for small business certification. Do you know what’s next? Over 50% of 8a Certified companies never win a contract. Certification does not guarantee you a contract. Whether it’s a Bachelor’s Degree, Master’s Degree, or a SDVOSB Certificate, it’s just a piece of paper. You still have to know what to do with it. And if you know what to do with it, you can open doors to millions of dollars.

In this ADVANCED class, we will share with you practical techniques and strategies to help you land more government contracts. If you’re not seeing the results you’ve envisioned, this class is for you. You’ll learn mistakes that others have made and how to avoid them.

If you’re frustrated with the procurement process. If you’ve felt that capturing contracts has been elusive. Or if government contracting is like a maze and you’ve often felt lost, then you should attend this event.
