Listen, I work 2 jobs in tech and I set my llc up today. I have capital AND I have the drive to fulfill some of the work myself as I grow. Your videos are highly inspiring to a woman like me. I was a stripper 2 years ago and now I’m a cyber security consultant. Keep the posts coming. I will watch them all over the next 4 weeks while my filing completes. Finding your channel feels like confirmation after FINALLY making a needed step towards my million dollar year.
Y’all I applied for a gov job and just got an email saying referred! I haven’t done the resume builder but I am going to do it now. I hope I get an interview for this one but I’m going to do it right and try again
Be mindful once you have employees there's EMPLOYMENT TAXES along with Filing & depositing requirements for entity type. You are subject to taxes fines fees for late or non filing. You need more than quicbooks or similar 3rd party software & most of all trustworthy employees!
I used my Affirm credit to kick off my government contracting business lol. Seriously, that 10k credit that I randomly got approved for a few years ago and never used/forgot about came in clutch. Used that as a buffer for the time between purchasing/delivering goods and the agency issuing a check. Did all this while working full time as a retail manager. Even doing this part time and nit picking smaller contracts, I made $47k last year thru my sole proprietor/employee LLC that Im running out of my house. Unless Im making mid six figures, I wouldn't think about hiring employees (and the insurances that comes with that)
🔑 count me in please!. I’m a young mother and wife and I have a lot of time on my hands. I need and want to work for myself and this seems like something that would be a GREAT opportunity!
I have a family member with a logistics business and has a proven track record but he has a criminal background. Would I be able to get trucking contracts under my LLC and subcontract them to him?
Great video and thanks I just learned another thing no one is talking about and that is doing work outside of your LLC formation state and having to register as a foreign LLC to do business other most other states.
First off. Great video. Next, the veteran connect you have, do we have to sign up for your course in order to know about it?? Thanks for the info tho!!
For sole source and RFI response do I include the budget within the main PDF or in separate document? I sent an email to office of small business and no response on their preference yet. What is standard protocol on sources sought response for budget?
Can you tell me the name or the law that was passed about changing how many funding streams in your business? I believe you stated it can’t be just Federal Contracting revenue.

30 days is the norm, but asking a sub to wait 60, maybe a red flag for them. Im going to apply for a line of credit. I do have some capital. I will try for the smaller contracts for now. Thanks for the reply.
You can start a government contracting business with nearly zero capital I am living proof. You just need to pick certain products with vendors that give you net terms. It’s very tricky but it’s how I got started
Hi Sheena, I would like to start off doing middleman. It’s hard to secure contracts without having certifications . Most certifications require experience. Do you train on how to provide services as the middleman of so how long does it usually take to secure contracts as a middleman.
I don’t teach “middleman”. I have a video on my channel sharing my thoughts about it. Also, you can easily secure contracts as a small business without certifications. You can email me to discuss further. Sp@sheenapreneur.com
Sheena, you are so pretty. I am a small business owner in Park Forest, IL. I'm a government contractor specializing in facilities support. I can't wait to meet you at an event or something here in Chicago. I would love to form a small to small joint venture... just to get a chance to work with you.
Thank you for all the knowledge nuggets and info! So if I want to bid on a contract valued at say 250k I gotta make sure I have that amount in my biz bank account? If not then Im even more confused haha...bcoz if I got into this biz with 10k how am I gonna supply gov with 250k worth of product?
+@ckhalifazada Great question. When it comes to products, it depends on how they agency wants it delivered. If they want it all at once, then yes you may need to have that amount of money or at least have a credit line with the company you are getting the product from. Many times the product company will allow you to get the goods without pay as long is you have established credit with them OR bring them proof, you have a large order! Buttttt the relationship SHOULD be built before your first awarded contract!
Great info, any details on what the new regulation can be found? I would like to read up on it. I googled it already and nothing related to what you said came up

First off. Great video.

Great information
Thank you for sharing
This makes perfect sense.
For sole source and RFI response do I include the budget within the main PDF or in separate document?

How does factoring work?
First thing one need is Capital. if you don’t have capital or ability to be able to get capital. You can forget it.
Partially true. I didn’t have capital. Also, if you start off as a sub you may not need capital. Or if you ask your contractors to wait for payment
30 days is the norm, but asking a sub to wait 60, maybe a red flag for them. Im going to apply for a line of credit. I do have some capital. I will try for the smaller contracts for now. Thanks for the reply.
Very true! Line of credit before you need it is always preferred.

to bid for trucking contracts with govt. do i need to own a trucking business license or a gneral service business can bid for it

Hello ma'am, this has been a blessing I am new to business. Im a disabled Navy vet and i need advice can i email you to? @sheenapreneur
Why do a lot of “government contracting gurus” say you’re guaranteed to win a contract or it’s easy to get one” it’s sickening and very misleading.
+@Motivationofften it’s definitely not easy but it can be done
Designate where you get information/ regulations and where you get inspiration/motivation
How much is your course?
