You're such a blessing. I believe God send people in your path whether in person or online. I'm an inspiring notary public I take my state test tomorrow and I'm ready to jump into government contracting asap.
That’s awesome. I know notaries that a making really good money as a notary with corporate and government contracts.
I have been working for other general construction contractors. Open a construction project management LLC within the last year after being laid off but I did get private contracts during that time.
Great start
Your presentation is very personal. Look forward to doing business with you. Thank you for this video. It's time to change the game!
Thank you. Yes. Let’s make it happen.
Gosh Felicia great videos! I have many years experience being a musician and in the 80's and 90's I did software development and technical writing (manuals) for software companies. I have since been teaching as Music professor and adjunct faculty at a local University - but there are not any high paying positions available only a very small number of private music lessons and maybe one or two classes at the (very low) adjunct salary level. I have recently completed a Masters Degree in Music and am now finishing up a PhD degree in Musicology, and as you may well know, graduate students do nothing but writing writing writing writing especially for the dissertation. My previous experience doing technical writing and copywriting for software companies adds a lot to my focus. I am looking to get into doing technical writing or copywriting as a government contractor, this includes manuals, training handbooks, technical manuals, military manuals, software manuals, brochures, ad copy, and most kinds of writing. Writing writing writing! How can I break in? Thanks!!!!!
Pebber Brown The process of getting started is the same for everyone. It’s here firstbiddonefast.com

Ericka Williams thank you! I hope it inspires you to go after your dreams.
I am very inspired by your video and would like to follow your path.
Robi Production thank you! Awesome, hopefully you find me sharing my lessons learned are helpful.
I had to pause the video. How did you find the prime contractor? What did you have to already accomplish (as far as business setup) before a prime will give you the opportunity?
lynej2011 I went beyond FBO to find primes. Yes your biz needs to be set up just as any business you’d decide to start whether doing government or private work. Do entity structure, bank, EIN number etc. Here’s a resource for you to check out: feliciastreeter.com/onlineworkshops

I most definitely need to get in touch with you I'm a veteran starting my own clearing and demolition company

Thank you❤
Hello I am a minority service connected veteran and I want to get into federal contracting. I am at ground zero right now and would like to know what I will need to do to get started.
Get started? The first couple things with government contracting, you need to get registered in SAM and apply for certifications that you qualify for. To get started working me and get help with that and more, go here feliciastreeter.com/contractorsedge.
Thanks!
Thank you!!! I appreciate your financial thanks!!!
I’m willing to learn Felicia. I have a 1 month old llc in Construction with 20 years experience.
Sounds like you have the combination. What specific goals are you working towards?
Short term first year goals would be. Get enough work in the form of contracts. To hire my first employees and keep a crew busy.
@@silver9483 Do you know how to make those things happen? Do you have a plan to make those things happen?
Felicia - I think I know but I only know what I know if that makes any sense. So I could be missing somethings. But I stay hustling for knowledge everyday so that’s how I found you.
@@silver9483 Hey I've been in the business for many years and I still educate myself too.
Felicia, my problem is I don't really understand how to search for bids on fbo..
Hi. There are several steps we go through on searching for bids. There are a couple methods used on fbo and then there are other ways to find opportunities. You should check out more resources on my website at feliciastreeter.com.
Hi am into flooring and am trying to find ways to expand my business to become a federal contractor, how do I get it done?
Lesmon Grant Great question. Apply and certify for government contracts and create and implement on your marketing plan.
For once, I'd like to find a program or mentor that actually works with beginners.
Welcome to the community!! Have you heard about the one-day virtual event I'm hosting called Prepared For Millions? Check it out here prepared4millions.com See you there!
Hi Felicia, Roger Hickman, how do I find and bid on small contracts so that one day I can be like you and your husband? I need to build a past performance.
Roger, first you need to get setup inside the government systems, apply for certifications for which you qualify, and then market to the agencies that buy what you sell. If you have no past performance, you'll need to start as a subcontractor with someone that has government contracts. That is how you can build past performance. I also did a quick video for you. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/mSZp1bTYGxo/w-d-xo.html
What about biding on GSA contracts under $25,000 to build pass performance?
Yes, you sure could.
Why would a company want to subcontract with a company with no experience ?
Thanks for sharing :-)
No problem. Hope it's inspiring you to take action.
Hi Felicia, I am newly registered with Sam. I have not started any bids, but I have researched my field in my state? There was more than what I offer in some of the opportunities, but it’s something I could fulfill. Do you think I should price the cost plus my labeling fees in the initial bid, or should it be an estimate for bargaining purposes?
I'm not sure what you mean by price the cost plus labeling fees. You should price cost to delivery as well as a profit. If that's not what you're asking, clairfy for me.
But what if you’re not at 6 figures yet? I’m more than halfway there but we’re positioning ourselves to do business with the govt with our certifications. Does that mean we’re not ready yet?
You're definitely ready. It's not based on how much revenue you've generated thus far. Have you attended my webinar? You should if you haven't. Here's the link feliciastreeter.com/training. See you there!
Your amazing!!! I'm going to follow your rules and I'll let you know how I make out
Yes. Come back and share.
You’re*
my husband and I been through that too!
Is it true that 2nd tier subs are protected from being bilked by the prime?
There are a lot of things that could be involved in how the answer to that question would go. So the short answer without specifics is yes and no. But I wouldn't use the word protected either.
Felicia Streeter thank you 🙂 did you ever receive that check? Lol
@@blazayblazay8888 What check?
@@feliciamdupree the one you were waiting for that chistmas.
So the contract was worth $7M or did you profit $7M?
The contract.
I am more in general contracting. Can you help with that as well?
Yes! I've done complete design-build projects in my own company. I'm hosting a free live online workshop on Get Government Contracts starting this Monday. You should join us. Here's the link feliciastreeter.com/contracts.
you are amazing.
Thank you Sebastien!
Hi. If you can choose to do business with one (city, county, state or federal), which would it be and why?
Great question Joseph - It would depend on a couple things. Who's my customer, if I wanted to stay local, what are my long-term goals, what certifications I qualify for and advantages and resources. With that being said I'd go federal. Hey don't forget to subscribe to my channel so you don't miss out on future content and get your questions answered. Have an awesome day.
Can you work with fedbizzops if you are in europe
I’m not sure what you mean by work with fedbiz... but you should be able to access it from anywhere. If you’re talking about performing on projects then that would depend on what you offer and whether it’s a product or service and how you delivery that.
Hi Felicia loved watching your videos i paid fir for your 77$ program which is great but i would like ti have a phone conversation with you as to be guided for my way forward I'm still unclear what direction to take since I'm new to America .

Julian_david Thank you. There’s a video training with everything laid out here on the channel. Keep watching.
Hi Felicia, Please feel free to contact me. I got a few contracts for schedule 75 but those are for office supplies. Now i have a construction company. Need your help !
Hi Bruce. I received your email. I will give you a call today. Looking forward to us working together.
Good day Felicia, My name is Carvell Garrett owner of BVERSE LLC. I love watching your videos. I am new to government contracting. I need your help on trying to figure out the right market to focus on when doing government contracting and how I can get funding in order to successfully take my business to the next level. I have no money, but I am looking to make money in the next month or so. Thanks.
Carvell Garrett congratulations on starting your business. That is definitely something we could work through together as we cover it inside my programs. You should watch the video in my current series Road to Government Contracting the video on finding contracting opportunities.
Where are you located ?
Dallas, Texas
$7MM? How much is your profit? 1/3rd? Give me a percentage please…🤝
There is not a set percentage. What profit margin do you use?
Is there anyway I can email you?

Hello, I am in a different position. I have a vacation rental business and I am trying to connect with construction workers and project managers who have won government bids and are coming into town for long term assignments. I provide furnished housing with all utilities for customers who do not want to spend weeks or months staying in a hotel. I live in West Palm Beach, Florida. Where do I go to find the wining bids for government contracts in my area?
Yan B There are free resources and information at feliciastreeter.com/blog and then I’d suggest you start with the Sequencing Formula which gives you everything you need to do before you can bid contracts. Here’s that link feliciastreeter.com/sequencing. If I can help further let me know. Good Luck!
Hello, I'm a Project Manager who have lead construction projects. Are you still looking for PMs?
My sister wants to start a home, apt. & office/Business cleaning Service. The company isn't formally formed, yet. Could she win a Government Contract straight out of the Gate ?
It depends. It has happened. If she'd like to talk about it have her contact me over at www.askfeliciastreeter.com to schedule a chat.
Thank you, I've e-mailed your info., to my sister and her business partner.
Mel G. I’ve won two contracts without a business at all
@@amonthedon5951 how did u do that
So I need a business first?
Carlos Campuzano Yes. You need to have a business to do work with the government. You don’t have to already have a business to join one of my programs where I help you set up your business too.
Hi Mrs. Streeter, I'm a new start up conpany with no track record. We have everything in place. How do we go about getting a Contracting officer to start our bids? We do need one correct?
Hi Sunshine. I'm not really sure about what you're asking and what you mean by everything in place, and I don't know anything about your business, but I will try to answer. If you're ready to start bidding, you need to find opportunities to bid. You could network, call companies, and watch for when opportunities come out for bid. You could also check out other resources on my website and blog at feliciastreeter.com.
