 What Are People Saying About the TargetGov Experience?

 The entire experience was first-rate!  G. Zelitzky

The best part is having the ease of taking part in the teleconference no matter where I had to be that day.  A. Tsakanikas

The teleconference was absolutely "outstanding"
The tool kit as well as yours and Beth's comments were excellent !
Teleconferencing is far more efficient and much less expensive than the alternative.
Thank you, 
 J. Whitworth
 
I think the teleconference format is very convenient...in fact, I actually listened to one of the conferences while driving back from a meeting with Army representative.  Registering and attending is always super easy. R. Alexander

Was impressed with the registration process. Getting the toolkit link was easy. Download was easy.  Dialing in was flawless. Very easy process.  Name withheld as requested

Registration was easy, conference was valuable.  I'll definitely attend other ones.

Greetings!

 
This is a "power of referrals" newsletter. I have two referrals for you.
 
Summertime and the living in government contracting land is heating up just like the temperature. One of the hottest topics is "insourcing" and what it will do to the contractors, large and small alike. Ann Sullivan is a great resource, when you hear her insider take on the topic, you will be much better informed! Check out the event noted below and tell them you are coming as my guest.
 
I love the idea of a virtual DC office-there when you need it and no overhead when you don't. It's smart business to control costs, no matter how much money you are making, right? See below; tell Mark I sent you, and give him the code of EVOP for a great deal.
 
Speaking of great deals, we just announced a new "stimulus" for your business: All Targetgov teleconferences are reduced to $49.95 for the rest of the federal fiscal year. The better informed you are, the more business you can close between now and September 30, the clock is ticking!
 
And if you can help someone else by giving or being a referral, pay it forward, let's power-up the economic engine this country needs
.
 
Here's to your success!

HOT TOPIC: Insourcing in the Current Climate and What it Means to Small Business
 
Everyone's talking about it - the Federal Government is Insourcing.  How is a small business to handle itself in this environment?  How can the Federal Government hire the right people for the right jobs? How will small businesses be affected?

June 23rd's Small Business SIG meeting will focus on the truths, myths and strategies around the current insourcing environment as it relates to Small Business Federal Government Contractors.  Ms Ann Sullivan of Madison Services Group, Inc (MSGI) is a confirmed speaker.  

 
Attend the Small Business (SB) Shared Interest Group (SIG) June Program to learn how to work successfully within the new Government strategy while winning and executing business-- this is a NO-COST event! Tell them Gloria Larkin sent you.

Image is key in making a positive business impression - a task not easily accomplished in an economically challenging climate. While economic turmoil is affecting companies worldwide, there are many resources available to help reduce overhead expenses while preserving your company's professionalism.
 
A virtual address may provide a cost effective and flexible way to do business.   Firms such as Intelligent Office can serve as a professional office base, answering phones, offering fax and mail services, as well as providing corporate facilities with private offices and conference rooms on an as-needed basis.  For details, call Mark McMahon at 202-587-5600 or visit www.iowashingtondc.com.
