INSIDE the Federal Help Center: How Members Actually WIN Contracts
Description
In this episode of the Federal Help Center Podcast, Eric Coffie breaks down how contractors can leverage the Federal Help Center community to access opportunities, education, and strategic connections—without relying heavily on cold outreach. He explains the difference between Starter and Pro memberships, how webinars and trainings are structured, and why many successful contractors grow through referrals, partnerships, and relationship-based deal flow. The conversation also highlights how to reverse-engineer opportunities at the local, state, and federal levels by identifying incumbents, understanding contract ownership, and asking the right questions early—reinforcing that no contractor wins alone.
