<p>I'd love to sell to the government but we are a small company with a small sales staff, we really don't know where to begin."
<p>"I found some bid opportunities I thought were a perfect fit for us, we even struggled through the proposal process, and submitted exactly as requested. We have been through this numerous times. I don't know where we are going wrong."
<p>"So much time and effort went into our last proposal and we lost... again. I'm 99% convinced my company doesn't stand a chance because I'm not a government insider."

<p><b>Federal agencies and congressional officials do not tell the public about the realities
of federal sales because it is not in their best interests to do so. In fact, this type of seminar
can start a company down the wrong path and divert them from the tough work of direct sales. Our
speakers are experienced federal contractors, they have been down the path the right way, and
they will address the realities and expose the truth about doing business with the government.</b>
<p>Spend one-day at the <a href = "http://www.fedmarket.com/seminars/academy-index.shtml">Federal Sales Academy</a> and get the truthful answers you have been looking for. You can make it as a federal contractor, read through our <a href = "http://www.fedmarket.com/seminars/seminar-testimonials.shtml">testimonials</a>, we have helped hundreds of companies succeed, and we can do the same for you. </font><br>

<p>Attend Fedmarket's newest Webinar and invite all of your sales team and partners to attend along with you right in the comfort of your own office.
<p>This popular class is being offered as an outreach for small-to-medium sized businesses that want to learn more about GSA Schedules, but don't want to listen to another government-sponsored "take" on GSA Schedules. One of the largest myths of GSA Schedule pricing is that you must offer "Most Favored Customer Pricing." In this Webinar, we'll explain why you won't have to offer those rock bottom prices. <br>

Fedmarket.com developed the Federal Sales Plan eLab for companies that want answers to the question "Who are the persons we need to call to get federal business?" Our instructors will walk attendees through the process of developing a company-specific sales plan to the extent that attendees should leave the eLab with a completed federal sales plan.<br><br><hr>
