Government Contracting 101: Laying the Groundwork for Success

Are you curious about selling your products or services to the government? While federal contracts often grab the spotlight, many small businesses find their first—and best—opportunities at the local and state levels. This introductory session will walk you through the essential first steps to help you build a strong business history and position yourself for long-term success in the government marketplace.

Join us to learn:

• How to assess your readiness and determine eligibility
• Where to start: local, state, and other accessible opportunities
• What it takes to effectively market your business to government buyers

The SBA’s Washington Metropolitan Area District Office will also share helpful resources for small businesses entering the government marketplace.
