Increase YOUR sales by selling to the “Government”

Increase YOUR sales by selling to the “Government”.

If you provide U.S. Government Agencies and/or their Prime Contractors with excellent products and/or services at reasonable prices and deliver them on time - they’ll come back to you again and again.

By expanding their market to include selling to the government:

M.S. Hi-Tech, Inc. (a Long Island small business) initially increased their sales by about 30%.

And they have had the “Government” as a customer for about 20 years (per Mike Montenes, President).

Whatever the product and/or service your company sells - the U.S. Government and/or their Prime Contractors probably buys it and a LOT of it.

Two basic reasons to sell to the U.S. Government and their Prime Contractors are:

1. They probably buy what you sell, because they are the largest customer in the world. They buy everything from pins to tanks.

2. They pay on time (maximum 30 days). And you can get paid even faster, if you offer a prompt-pay discount.

Start selling to various U.S. Government Agencies and/or their Prime Contractors, by:

- Contacting your local (free to low cost) Procurement Technical Assistance Center (PTAC) at LaGuardia Community College:


and

- Contacting your local (free to low cost) Small Business Development Center (SBDC) at Stony Brook University:


In summary, if you provide the U.S. Government Agencies and/or their Prime Contractors with excellent products and/or services, at a reasonable prices and deliver them on time - they’ll come back to you again and again, just like they did with M.S. Hi-Tech, Inc.
