SUMMARY:Federal Certifications Available to Veteran-Owned Small Businesses
DESCRIPTION:>>>RSVP here \nBefore you can start to conduct business with the federal government your business must obtain the proper certifications so you make maximum use of regulatory preferences under the Federal Acquisition Regulation.  \nSmall business certifications are like professional certifications; they document a special capability or status that will help you compete in the marketplace. Unlike permits and licenses\, you do not need to obtain certifications to legally operate. \nHowever\, in order to take advantage of business opportunities at the federal level\, such as government contracts\, you may need to obtain some certifications. Federal\, state and local governments offer businesses opportunities to sell billions of dollars’ worth of products and services. \nMany government agencies require that some percentage of the procurements be set aside for small businesses. Certifying your business can definitely help you successfully compete for government contracts. We will discuss the eligibility and places to register as well as free assistance available to help you complete the process. \nPresenter: Ed Ramos is a Senior Area Manager with the U.S. Small Business Administration assigned to Central Florida. \n>>>RSVP here

SUMMARY:SBDC Government Contracting Fundamentals
DESCRIPTION:>>>RSVP \nFederal\, State\, and Local Government procurement is the largest target market in the world. The question is usually not\, “Does the government buy what you are selling?”…It is more like\, “Can you be competitive enough and relentless enough to position your business to win government contracts?” \nIf you think you can be competitive\, then government contracting may be a good growth opportunity for your business. \nThe “Government Contracting Fundamentals” workshop\, presented by Steve South\, is designed for established small business owners with some commercial momentum that are curious about government contracting\, as well as business owners that may already be involved in government contracting. \nThis workshop will present government contracting in three components: \n\nPositioning for Government Contracting\nDeveloping Reactive Business Development Strategies\nDeveloping Proactive Business Development Strategies\n\nPresenter: Steve South\, SBDC \n>>RSVP<<

DESCRIPTION:Ignite Your Business With Storytelling: 2 Day Experience\nWe are thrilled to announce this two day retreat opportunity for qualified Veteran-led companies: Ignite Your Business With Storytelling on November 3 and 4\, 2022 at the National Entrepreneur Center in Orlando\, FL. \nApply Today \nhttps://vei.center/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/VEI_Wide.m4v\n  \nStorytelling is a powerful business tool and a skill that every entrepreneur should seek to master. Unfortunately\, most of us struggle to communicate our business ideas\, visions\, and values when it comes to telling our stories.

You’ll shape your experiences and ideas into engaging narratives and learn to deliver them with absolute clarity. \nBy attending our retreat\, you’ll learn how to: \n\nCraft stories that connect with others\nImplement a repeatable storytelling framework in your business\nCommunicate with other entrepreneurs about your ideas and experiences\nGain the confidence needed to share stories effectively\nApply your stories in real-world business scenarios\n\nYour story can make or break the relationships you build with your clients. Register now for a chance to tell your story the right way. Open to qualified veteran-led companies. Seats are very limited\, apply today: \nApply Today \nPresented By: Stan Miller\, Founder of Storicate \nWho: CEO or C-Suite Executive of a Veteran-Led Company \nWhen: November 3 and 4\, 2022 \nWhere: National Entrepreneur Center in Orlando\, FL \nCost: Complementary for qualified Veteran-Led Companies\, thanks to our great partners \nNote: Continental Breakfast & Lunch Provided \n2 Day Agenda: \n\nNovember 3th\n\n9am-4pm – Day 1\n4pm-5:30pm – Networking Event\n\n\nNovember 4th\n\n9am-12pm – Day 2\n\n\n\nAbout the presenter: Stan Miller \nI (Stan Miller) haven’t had a textbook career journey. When I started down the sales path working for a telecommunications giant\, I was coming in with no college education and no credentials. But humbling early life experiences have taught me the importance of an exceptional work ethic and instilled in me a strong desire to win\, bringing me to my current role as Founder of Storicate. (https://www.storicate.com/) \nCombining my background with what I’ve learned in my sales-centered experiences\, I’ve discovered a consistent\, critical piece of the process: storytelling. Whether you’re part of a company selling a service or figuring out the next step in your career timeline\, our stories are at the heart of everything we do; they’re who we are\, and how we communicate our value to others. \nDeveloping a framework to help people explain their career stories has become my passion. Why? Because I spent most of my life focused on experience\, education\, and accomplishments and none of it mattered if I couldn’t articulate it. I’ve provided support and guidance for over 3000 people – from recent college grads to C-Level executives – in my workshops and one-on-one coaching sessions. I’ve found a niche in helping people recognize their potential so that they can achieve greatness in their careers. \nFrom not knowing if college was ever going to be an option to graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Media Communications from Full Sail University in 2018\, from no experience to leadership positions\, it’s been rewarding to see my own narrative take shape. I’d love to hear your story and help you communicate it\, so let’s connect! \nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stanmiller/ \nInsta/Facebook @careerstoryteller \nApply Today

SUMMARY:Scaling Your Veteran Led Business
DESCRIPTION:Scaling Your Veteran Led Business \nJoin us virtually for a panel discussion on the key elements for laying the foundation to scale your business. Hear from industry experts as they highlight key aspects of growing a successful business including the areas of finance\, marketing & legal. \nBusiness owners\, especially solo-preneurs often lack the expertise to take their business to the next level and get stuck in a perpetual cycle of “working in the business and not on the business.” The other common challenge is “growing without knowing.” Growth can be captivating keeping your attention as you enjoy success. However\, business owners are often blindsided by not knowing what they don’t know. Blindside events can be painful at best and at worse can derail growth opportunities or even force the closure of a business. Join those who have “been there\, done that” as they share their experiences\, lessons learned and advice on how to successfully scale up your business. Brought to you in collaboration by FAVOB & VEI through the financial support of Veterans Florida. \nAbout FAVOB \nFAVOB provides opportunities for veteran owned businesses to THRIVE through business networking\, creating growth through supplier diversity and commercial business opportunities and advocating for policy change that enables veteran owned businesses to compete on a level playing field. \nTo learn more\, please visit www.FAVOB.net. \nAbout VEI \nVEI’s mission is to empower and support veteran entrepreneurs through business guidance\, education & mentorship through entrepreneurial cohort based training\, workshops\, coaching/mentoring and special programming. VEI is a Veteran-led 501(c)3 Nonprofit Organization. To learn more\, please visit www.TheVEI.org \nRegister Here \n
