In this episode, we’re diving into what it really looks like to get started in government contracting. If you’ve ever thought, “I want to go after government work but don’t know where to begin,” this one’s for you.We’re walking through the essentials: like registering on SAM.gov (yes, it’s clunky, but we’ve got your back), picking your NAICS codes, and crafting a capability statement that makes decision-makers actually want to work with you.We also open up about certifications: woman-owned, veteran-owned, HUBZone, and the powerful 8(a) program — and why they’re not just nice to have, they can actually open doors to sole source contracts and serious growth.But more than all that? We talk about relationships. Networking. Being bold enough to reach out, show up, and follow up. That’s where the magic happens.Whether you’re brand new to this world or already working in the private sector and ready to expand, we want to help you take those first steps.
