In this timely episode of The Eric Coffey Show, Eric sits down with Danielle and Amy to unpack what small businesses should be doing right now as the shutdown slows federal acquisition. They break down the practical moves contractors can execute today—strategic partnerships, diversifying into state and commercial markets, staying visible online, and tightening your brand and capability positioning. The panel also stresses the importance of joining (or creating) think tanks, keeping LinkedIn current, tracking regulatory changes, and sharpening your understanding of your customer as agencies prepare for major reorganizations once the government reopens.
Key Takeaways
