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.
