In this episode of The Daily Windup, I break down how billions in government contracts go unclaimed every year—and how to make sure your business isn't part of that statistic. We walk through the pitch deck process, TRL levels, and the exact details you need to win over DoD evaluators. You'll also learn why following formatting instructions (yes, down to Times New Roman font) could mean the difference between getting funded or being instantly deleted. Federal contracting success isn't luck—it's precision, presentation, and professionalism.

Key Takeaways:

• Every year, billions in government contracts are left on the table because small businesses don't follow simple instructions.

• Nail your pitch deck by focusing on validation, scalability, and cost savings (save $10M over 5 years, for example).

• Follow DoD formatting rules to the letter—one wrong file or missing item can get your email deleted instantly.
