In the GovClose Certification Program our students learn the government contracting skills to:1. Start their own consulting business that can earn up to $400k as a "solopreneur" advising businesses that sell to the government.2. Land high-paying sales executive jobs with companies selling to the government.3. Build predictable pipelines and win government contracts.In this video, I walk you through the tools, tech, and AI I personally use to win in government contracting — the real stack, not the gimmicks. From traditional tools that haven’t failed me in decades to emerging AI platforms and niche solutions for teaming, subcontracting, and market research, I show you what actually works and how I use it. No sponsorships. No sales pitches. Just the truth.Watch Next: How to land your first $4K a month client: https://youtu.be/ETCClaw-los📑 Chapters00:00 – Why the right tools matter in GovCon01:00 – Reviewing TeamingPro live: first impressions05:15 – GovE: unlocking hidden contract vehicles09:00 – How to actually team and win: the mindset11:45 – WhisperFlow: my unfair advantage for writing faster15:30 – Using ChatGPT properly in government contracting 20:30 – Crafting proposals they actually read (section by section)23:00 – Why CRMs make or break your pipeline25:30 – Canva: yes, Canva — and why it works30:15 – Video tools (Descript & Tradewinds pitches) you need now38:00 – Old standbys: USAspending, SAM.gov, GovWin IQ44:00 – Final thoughts: what tools to invest in nowJOIN the GovClose CommunityRING the bell 🔔 on my LinkedIn profile for real-world GovCon insights👉 https://www.linkedin.com/in/govclose/
