Brother 8Mile, Thank you so much. I just won my first Gov Contract today. Small one, about 35k but I am now in the books baby! They have immediately offered me 4 more projects. That's a potential $140k in a snap. Bless you Man. Keep touching our lives. Your purpose is not for naught. Murica! 💯
That is awesome. Huge congrats!
@@GovKidMethod what website do I submit my proposals too. To get Government Contracts at. I’m giving loans and grants to less fortunate neighborhoods.
I've been trying too learn this for so long.... In 2019, I had the opportunity to sell my missile design to the gov. However, Instead of selling a single design.. I'm aiming to have my company obtain a contract and become a defense partner. . . Do you all think this is possible? I am building out a prototype as well. . . . I will truly appreciate any information on this. Thank you!
Thank you. We are trying to bid on contracts. I hope one day.
Sir, how does the process work? Can I have some tips through email please?
I just wanted to say "thank you" for offering so much value in this topic and not charging an arm and a leg for new people wanting to get Gov contracts....with no prior knowledge.....God bless you!!....and much success to you!!
My man, Thank you for your efforts. This was generous material. Bless you.
From IT to road salt IS quite a difference and is inspiring to look at other opportunities. Good Work
You've given me confidence Derek. I can't thank you enough.
This is one of the most genuine and motivational videos I have watched on this entire platform. I intend to break barriers in technology and media. I am the only entrepreneur in my family going after "the possibilities" as we know it. Very new to all of this but passionate to find ways to help others. Thank you for this vid!
Thank you so much for the kind words! Kudos for being the trail blazer of your family as well. Your channel looks great, btw!
@@GovKidMethod You're very welcome! I'm totally going through your courses :) and thank you for taking the time to check it out.

Congratulations for your incredible success-best wishes
Thank you, you made the outlook and expectations of a Government Contract.
You earned a sub. I became a contractor when I deployed as a soldier. I met contractors during my tour and got into the world of contracting. I recently left the contract and opened my own IT business which is a skillset that I have gained for many years. I hope with my experience I can do what you did!
That's epic, Henry. You can totally do this and your experience will help you that much more!
@GovKidMethod is there anyway to personally connect with you

Solid VIDEO..... I am in Michigan.
You sir are a Yes Man!
Idk how I got here but I'm glad I found your channel!!!! You definitely have a new subby in me. I liked and hit that bell for all notifications too.
That’s awesome. Welcome!
Great video!
Great job.
Nice video!
I appreciate the inspiring video. Is accuracy something that is necessary to get contracts? What was the roi of those contracts you won before the age of 30?
Great content, do you have another video on the government paperwork and bidding process involved. Any insights for contracts abroad?
I go over a lot of the paperwork and bidding in my courses at govkidmethod.com
Inspirational
Inspiring.
Great vid
Great video! I came across a contract that needs a company to provide disinfectant wipes, but of course you need to have all that money up front to purchase the wipes.
Depending on who you buy it from there is supplier credit and payment terms where they may allow you to reimburse the supplier with interest. They would need to see a government purchase order as proof

Is that the case on all purchases?
Dang love your videos and wanting to get started. And then you said you’re in Michigan. There goes all the good contracts Lolol
I just won my first contact on fort Bragg for 2m thanks alot for the information I'm doing great with our team Az1
Tony that’s huge! Congrats. I always love to share wins to help our community. If you would be interested in doing an interview to share your story email me at derekjames@govkidmethod.com congrats again!
@@GovKidMethod I would love to ❤️
@@tonywashington637 just email me and we will coordinate
This is a very inspiring ❤❤
I work in Contracting, it's great to hear the other side on the story.
Is it true there contracts for notary?
@@rachaelgoldstein6134 there maybe but not in my contracting line of work
@@DeonMitchel I'm looking for contracts for trucking. Can you provide any info on that? We're a minority owned company.
@@charchar7897 I work on the performance side of contracting not the buying side. So unfortunately I don’t have a point of contact to get you to.
@@DeonMitchel Ok, thank you.
What would you recommend for a college student that wants to become a Technical/Proposal Writer within the Government? What books do you recommend to read to learn about proposal writing? What is a great way to get experience to prepare for this type of career path?
Very helpful. I'm in staffing too and looking to win my 1st got contract
Thank you, Derek. What are the documents you present to the government. Asking on a traditional bid/competition. I know this video is a little unorthodox and I appreciate the knowledge.
Thanks for videos, it seems that I am stuck on getting a Cage code, not sure where I get this information. I would like to chat with you if possible. Thank you for all the information you provide all the new folks getting into this field
Good info.
This is great advice Derek. I just started my business and just got my SDVOB certification.
I’m a veteran what website do I apply for SDVOB certification
@@stephenagyepong1131 The process starts off through being verified as a veteran first. Go to this link www.vip.vetbiz.va.gov/ to start. It's a lengthy process but not hard to do if you have all of your info ready.
Raidius Games thanks so much did you find a government contract yet

Out of the 85k, how much was yours to keep? I appreciate the video!
I see over 3500 viewers , people be thankful , subscribe to the channel, the guy here is donating his time and knowledge ...
Thank you so much for this comment!
wow this guy love ur story!!!! I want to be just like you!!!!
8a, good job. Contracting is fun
It sure is. Thanks!
Awesome insight! How did you get into this line of work? Does it require specific formal education or do companies train you to do this sort of thing?
Companies will usually train you! Start in business development or as an entry proposal writer
@@GovKidMethod appreciate the advice!
I really appreciate your story and content. I’ve been looking for the video where you talk more about the “AA” contract category with the SBA. I haven’t been able to find it. Could you guide me towards it?

Hello Derek! Man let me first thank you for the great work that you are doing. You really open up and make clear some of the mystery of government contracting! This is the first time for me to put in a request, but anyway, here it is. I would like for you to do a presentation on what a professional Sources Sought and RFI response should look like? Thank you for all that you do!!!
I will add this to the list of topics! Thanks for the feedback
Hell yeah!
I have one questions, how do you get the weapons, ammo, and ect to send to the government? I really want to get started but I don’t know where to start if that makes sense
I’m interested in this. Thank you!
Have you decided to move forward?
@@GovKidMethod I did minimal research. Found that there wasn't many opportunities for a music creator (composer/producer). You might have other options I missed. Happy to hop on a chat. :)
@@dafingaz Your research is likely accurate. If Federal isn't buying, there's still a chance state and city could be
@@GovKidMethod Thanks!
So when starting out what NAICS CODE would you use to win contracts that's not in your wheelhouse?
How did you write the proposal with their requirements? Did you send the requirements to subcontractor for them to fill out and then you put everything together and sent to gov't?
For these kinds of government contracts when are you payed, is it upfront or do you need capital first?
Derek great work you're putting out. Are the contracts cashed out in advanced, inmediately after the completition/stages or after completition,then undergoes bureucratic paperwork and finally cashes out? Or how?
Good question, Axel. The government pays NET 30 after you’re setup on their invoicing system. They don’t give you cash upfront. It will either be a monthly billing or progress payments depending on the type of work it is. So you need to be able to float that until you are reimbursed.
@@GovKidMethod Thank you Derek! Keep beating it with the great work
