Have you ever wondered if there's a more stable revenue stream waiting for your blue collar business? In this eye-opening episode, Eric Knellinger, president of US Federal Contractor Registration, reveals the largely untapped world of federal government contracts and how they can transform small businesses in the trades.

Did you know that 23% of all federal contracts MUST be awarded to small businesses? That's billions of dollars in potential work for companies just like yours. Eric shares the inspiring story of how personal tragedy led him to create USFCR, and how his company has since helped countless contractors navigate the complex world of government procurement.

The conversation dives deep into practical strategies for blue collar businesses to access this market. Eric explains the registration process, how to market effectively to procurement officers, and the game-changing concept of "teaming" with other small businesses to bid on larger contracts. He addresses the common barriers holding contractors back, from lack of capital to fear of complex paperwork, and outlines clear solutions for each.

What sets this episode apart is the actionable advice for businesses at every stage. Whether you're a "Chuck in a truck" just starting out or an established contractor looking to diversify revenue streams, you'll gain insights into how federal contracts can provide stability and growth opportunities. Eric's passion for helping small businesses succeed shines through as he challenges listeners to ask themselves, "What's next?" and consider federal contracting as their answer.
