Debunking the Myths of Successful Government Sales

National Webinars Teach Successful Sales Strategies in 500 Billion Dollar Market

Feb 17, 2010 Washington DC. The Government Contracting: Debunking the Myth of Successful Government Sales national webinar series is designed to teach contractors which sales strategies will best connect them with those key decision makers, how to avoid the common mistakes many businesses make when approaching the government, and how to proactively take advantage of upcoming sales opportunities. Two class levels, Basics and Advanced, will ensure that participants learn what they need to know. Each series includes three one-hour webinars. Contractors may sign up for one or both series or for an individual webinar.

Regardless of economic conditions, the federal government buys over 500 billion dollars in goods and services from large and small businesses. But knowing that the federal government is buying and actually getting it to purchase are two entirely different things. This webinar series will show exactly how businesses can push past the massive government wall and access the key decision makers.

Contractors will be able to download each webinar individually or as an entire series to their own computer. The ability to listen to a webinar and its content on demand (unlimited access--as many times as needed) is vital to a business’ success in this market. The content is then available for reference whenever needed to support a company sales plan or to share with an internal sales team.

Expert Speakers include Gloria Berthold Larkin of TargetGov and Beth Goldstein of Marketing Edge Consulting Group.
