Six Strategies to Grow Aggressively in the Federal Market webinar on June 14th, 2012

If you manage a small government contracting business, you are one busy person. Like many other CEOs and senior executives, you still may be billable on government contracts, write proposals in your “free” time, and run daily company operations on top of that. If you are not building a lifestyle business meant to remain small, you may feel pangs of frustration by the way things are going.

Take a look at the Washington Technology Fast 50 list, and you will see the growth rates possible in the government market. For example, number two on the list, Octo Consulting Group from Vienna, Virginia, boasts an annual growth rate of 228%, growing in five years from $187 thousand to $22 million. Other companies on the list show meteoric growth, ranging from 60 to 326%. You yourself probably know some teammates that may have not made the list, but have done spectacularly well for themselves. However, your company may not be quite there.

Can you relate to any of the following problems commonly reported by small businesses?

• Lack of a clear strategy to take the company to the next level of growth where the revenue comes at a consistently increasing rate.
• Majority of business comes from subcontracting to others.
• Bidding only on a handful of proposals a year, and having a low win rate to boot.
• Lack of good personnel, processes, or tools for business development.

– If your company faces any of the common issues above;
– If you would like to learn how to change your predicament, and perhaps one day make it to the Fast 50 list yourself;
– If you want to finally have the time to focus on critical business-building tasks;
