In this episode of The Eric Coffie Show, Eric reveals why so many small businesses struggle in GovCon—not because opportunities are scarce, but because most aren't procurement-ready when it counts. He highlights how high-level relationships with major primes like SAIC, Encore Funding, Collins Aerospace, and federal agencies open doors to subcontracting opportunities even during market slowdowns, and he shares the powerful story of winning a $5M subcontract with bad credit, debt, and zero bonding by leveraging partnerships and vendor credit. Eric also breaks down the revamped Federal Help Center, now built to help beginners get foundational tools in the Starter Group while serious contractors get advanced deal-making strategy inside the Pro Hub, backed by lenders, CDFIs, and industry insiders committed to helping small businesses win.

Key Takeaways
  • Most businesses lose in GovCon because they're not procurement-ready when opportunity arrives.

  • You can win major contracts as a subcontractor—even without capital, bonding, or great credit.

  • The right community and prime relationships unlock opportunities no bid website ever will.
