In this brutally honest episode, Eric tears down the myths that keep small businesses broke and frustrated in government contracting. He breaks down why the system was never designed with small businesses in mind, how weighted goals inflate the government's success numbers, and why relying on SAM.gov or SBA programs alone will keep you invisible. Eric exposes how top primes and politically connected companies dominate the market—and shares what small businesses must do right now to compete despite the odds. If you're ready to stop complaining and start winning, this episode is the wake-up call.
