Winning government contracts is not about lowering your price, it is about choosing the right product or service and building a strategy that actually gets you paid.
In this episode, Eric Coffie breaks down the mindset shift that separates contractors who scale from the ones who stay stuck paying every bill and keeping no profit. You will learn how to reverse-engineer a real revenue target, pick the offering with the lowest resources and highest return, and stop letting shiny object syndrome pull you off the work that builds something great.
- Learn the "board of directors at home" mindset that forces you to invest your time and energy for the highest returns to your family and your business
- Master the three big questions (where are you going, what do you want, what are you doing) that keep contractors from drifting off course
- Break down the 2-3-5 yard method to work backward from a revenue goal like $20K in three months into the exact actions that get you there
- Understand the resources, risk, and return framework for choosing which service (concrete, demolition, construction management) actually delivers profitable margins
- See why competing on lower price is a losing government contracting strategy and how to win with strategy instead
