A Guide for Companies Seeking to Learn the Basics of Doing Business with the US Government

“You can make a small fortune in Government contracting – as long as you start with a large fortune!”
Have you ever considered doing business with the Government? After all, they buy, literally, everything. And usually LOTS of everything. If you sell goods or services, somewhere in the Government someone is buying what you are selling.
But wait – isn’t the Government an extremely difficult customer? Aren’t they big and powerful? They could crush my small business! Yes, there are many rules and regulations that must be followed. Your business practices must be above reproach, and you need to pay great attention to detail. Dealing with the Government is quite different than dealing with your usual commercial customers. So much so that many jokes are often told about dealing with the Government, as the opening above reflects.
Dealing with the Government, either directly as a prime contractor or indirectly as a subcontractor will be substantially different than your normal business. There are long contracts, many many clauses, terms and conditions, (some included only by reference so you have to go look somewhere else to see what the contract actually says), formal rules to follow, and unique reports. It is not for everyone. Yet many companies have built themselves into large entities dealing with the Government.
The Government particularly seeks small businesses and those who hold a special preference that Congress believes should be encouraged. There are programs within all agencies to help new entrants to the Government market, and one entire agency whose mission is to help foster small businesses. But how do you get started? How do you learn the rules? How do you make an informed business decision whether seeking Government business is right for you and your firm? Certified Contracting Solutions, LLC, a company that has been around since 2002, and its founder, who has over 35 years dealing with Government contracting, have put together the very first primer on what you need to know. In the latest eBook from CCS you will find a wealth of information that will explain many of the basics of Government contracting and provide you with a simple seven step plan that will get you registered with the Government. This particular volume will not tell you how to market or bid to the Government, it is designed to help you consider the business decision of whether Government work is good enough for you. If you decide it is, then the seven step process is spelled out in detail for you to go through the registration process. While it really can be done on your own, especially with the tools and practice tips contained in the eBook, you always have the option of reaching out to the author to guide you through the process personally, or, if you prefer, do it for you!
Some companies rely on bad advice to start dealing with the Government, or to immediately get on a GSA schedule, or any number of ill-advised steps. “How to do Business with the Government” is over 40 pages of extremely valuable information designed to help the novice make an intelligent business decision and then act on that decision to start the process.
Even those who have already embarked on the adventure that is Government contracting can learn a few tips and perhaps discover why their efforts to land the Government as a customer or client have not met with better success. One of CCS’ current clients even said that she wished she had known some of this material when they started. It would have made their life easier!
Try it today. You will learn a lot about the Government and how it treats its contractors. Government contracting is not for the faint of heart, but then nothing really valuable ever is. And it comes with a 100% money-back guarantee. If the eBook does not help you decide whether to work with the Government or how to get your firm registered to be eligible for a Government contract, simply delete the electronic file and let us know.
So zero risk to you and the potential for growing your business from small to large and actually becoming one of the “big boys and girls” who deal with the Government in a very significant way. Don’t miss this opportunity.
