We showed UP yesterday! Here is what happened. 🚀
Hey everyone! Ken here. Yesterday inside the Contract Escape Workshop, Dr. Mel pulled back the curtain and completely delivered. She identified contract lanes for real people, broke down the micro purchase system step by step, and showed exactly how to find buyers without a proposal. If you missed it, we are still on for another live workshop next week. But the next step for people who are truly serious is the Reinvent Yourself with Contracts program. We are so excited to see this community expand, and we are genuinely anticipating your presence inside the program with us as we level up.

I had a conflict yesterday and was unable to join. Excited to learn there is another opportunity! Looking forward to it.
3 types of contracts that do not require proposals.
1. Micro-purchases under $15,000 - buyer decides alone. Simplified acquisitions under $250,000 - limited competition.3. Sole source awards - they come to YOU specifically. Most people only know about #1. But if you position yourself right, #3 is where the real money lives. Which one are you most interested in? Drop a number below.

Number 3, but I see it as the destination, not the starting point. As a newly registered small business, my focus is earning performance history through micro-purchases and simplified acquisitions while intentionally building relationships with buyers. My goal is to become the company they think of when a sole source opportunity makes sense. I'm beginning to see how all the pieces fit together.
🤑Stop pitching your services to people who can't afford them.🤑
I built something for you. It's called Find Your Buyer and it took me 33 years of winning contracts with MARTA, CDC, Hartsfield-Jackson Airport, and DeKalb County Georgia to know that the real problem isn't your service. It's where you're looking for customers. Here's the truth nobody in this community wants to say out loud. 95% of the people in free Facebook groups, free Skool communities, and free Instagram DMs will never buy anything from you. Ever. The research proves it. Free attracts free. Your real buyers are in government agencies, hospital systems, school districts, corporations, and nonprofits with budgets already approved and problems they need you to solve right now. I built a free tool that shows you exactly who they are. You pick your industry. It gives you 20 real buyers with real budgets who are actively looking for what you do. Whether you are in IT, healthcare, cleaning, trucking, hair, makeup, accounting, cybersecurity, consulting, or 30 other industries. Your buyers are in there. Go find yours right now at buyerfinder.lovable.app Drop BUYER below and tell me what industry you are in. I want to see who is in this community and what you do. You don't need a job. You need a contract.

BUYER. 🙋🏽‍♀️ This completely reframed how I'm thinking about business development. I downloaded the buyer lists for Business Consulting, IT & Tech Services, Project Management, and Training & Education, and I immediately started seeing opportunities I hadn't considered before. I'm building Elevate & Automate Consulting, and instead of chasing prospects, I'm shifting my focus toward organizations that already have budgets and real operational problems to solve. Thank you for creating and sharing this resource. Looking forward to learning more in the workshop.
