PHILLY, I’m pulling up. 🦅🏙️

On January 29th, the Big BIDness Tour hits the city and I’ll be teaching Government Contracting 101. If you’re a business owner who’s tired of watching other people win contracts you KNOW you could handle, this is your moment.

We’re going to break down:
• how government contracting really works
• where to find legit opportunities
• what procurement is actually looking for
• how to position your business to win

This workshop is practical, plain-language, and built for action takers.

Seats are limited, and Philly i love y’all, but y’all love to wait until the last minute… don’t! 🤣
