@daveydeals2 Another 2x6 guy. I saw one other dude using them for parking lines and thought that was the better way than taping. You experience any bleed under the board?
@josh_inya Have you booked your first job yet? I am curious as to how much the “business” has to be set up before cold approaching places. For example, business cards, llc, insurance, website, etc.
Fixing this old girl up now. Never laid a single stripe, but hope to book a job by July
Meet Natalie. She makes six figures a year working one to two hours a week.
She has no experience in hazardous waste disposal. No experience in landscaping. No experience in catering.
But she won contracts in all three industries.
Her first deal netted her $800 profit per pickup over five years.
That's $10,000 net profit every year for making a few phone calls and submitting one proposal.
Her second contract paid her $11,000 profit in two weeks.
Her largest contract was $962,000 over five years. Her subcontractor charged her $700,000. She pocketed $262,000 for work she doesn't even do.
What is it?
Government contracting.
She bids on jobs on sam . gov, finds subcontractors to do the actual work, and captures the spread between what the government pays her and what she pays her subs.
The government is legally required to spend money with small businesses.
You don't need experience. You don't even need money.
You just need an LLC and an internet connection.
In this episode Natalie:
- Breaks down how she won her first contract bidding on something she'd never heard of
- Shows me the exact AI prompts she uses to analyze 20-page government solicitations
- Tells me why contracts under $350K don't require any past performance
- Gives me the playbook for finding hungry subcontractors who actually deliver
Why aren't more people doing this?

@HSchenewark Idk anything about sealing, but that seems very reasonable. Especially with a sprayer. I appreciate your content man. Inspires me to keep working towards starting my own business.
@quelimbrick@Bitcoin_Teej Did you start at a lower level and work your way up? Knew someone to get you in? Or is it pretty easy to start? I know surface level, but I would dive deep if a career is possible
@SupplyGuy33@Bitcoin_Teej How much experience do you have? I am learning about this via personal business with Amazon, but I wouldn’t mind a steady career about it. Are we talking a degree?
