FedBiz Radio

Welcome to the first Internet radio show (podcast, in some circles!) about the world of government contracting and marketing. Each week, the GSAProposal.com team brings you entertaining news and information that you can use to enhance your company's bottom line. We feature guests who bring valuable information to all of our listeners. Our show is available as a downloadable MP3 file that you can put on your portable audio player and listen to later.

Our Current Show!

The Fifth Annual Veteran Business Symposium.Every November, the SBA and Northeast Ohio PTAC office present one of the most important veteran business shows in the USA in Elyria, Ohio, west of Cleveland. This year, GSAProposal.com's second year of helping to sponsor this show, we took our microphones to the show for FedBiz Radio and interviewed five very key people, professionals with enormous experience in a broad range of topics, all of which are important to veteran entrepreneurs. Our guests included Dennis DeMolet of DeMolet Consulting; Jim Blanco, LTC, USA Retired, of Vision Technologies; Mimi Lohm of NOVOBA and Vetrepreneur magazine; Scott Denniston, Director, Office of Small. Business and Center for Veterans Enterprise at the Veterans Administration; and John Renner, Business Development Specialist, US Small Business Administration. Have paper and pen ready and get set to take lots of notes because these people had lots of great advice and tips for you!
 

If you have a topic or question you'd like us to address, or even a comment about the show, please send us an e-mail message addressed to jamey@gsaproposal.com. If you've done well with GSAAdvantage, we'd like to hear your success story, as well.

Thanks for listening and we hope to hear from you soon!

MOBIS.Only one other GSA schedule has a greater following. MOBIS is an important schedule to the federal government because it brings a wealth of program and project management, business process improvement and program integration expertise from the private sector to government agencies that need this kind of professional assistance. But the MOBIS proposal is one of the trickiest proposals to create and many MOBIS proposals sent by companies without professional proposal preparation guidance are rejected. In this show, Pat and Jamey discuss everything MOBIS, from what GSA wants from it to the pitfalls and problems in preparing a proposal in response to MOBIS's solicitation. If your company is interested in this key schedule, you need to listen to this show!   Click here
Scott Denniston, Director of the Office of Small. Business and Center for Veterans Enterprise, for the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, chatted with Pat and Jamey about what it takes to be successful when selling to the government. Scott is a very highly regarded and high profile expert and we appreciated his valuable insights. Scott's advice is valuable for non-veterans as well as veterans; he teaches you what to say and what not to say when meeting a federal customer. Be sure to visit www.vetbiz.gov.   Click here
Veterans returning home from combat duty areas, and families of veterans who lose their lives in combat, face an overwhelming gauntlet of government paperwork during a time of unprecedented stress and grief. But help is available at www.vetassist.org. Join Pat and Jamey as they talk with Mike Jackson and Tara Dixon-Engel, the founders of Operation Welcome Home. Mike and Tara also operate www.nationaloperationwelcomehome.com. Listeners should read Mike's and Tara's marvelous and highly honored book, Naked in Da Nang: A Forward Air Controller in Vietnam. You may order the book here.   Click here
That 70 Show! This program is all about the IT (Group 70) schedule, GSA's most popular schedule. This show is a must-hear because Pat and Jamey cover a great deal of information that is important to the success of any proposal submitted to GSA. The IT schedule solicitation does not give you all the information you need; this show fills in those blanks and offers information about such matters as the hidden requirements in professional IT services, Letters of Supply and many other topics. If you sell IT goods or services and you don't have an IT schedule, you need one. But before pursuing an IT schedule, listen in to our IT special!   Click here
