I have been trying to get with a prime for a few years. I have not been successful to find a good prime, who does not take advantange of the small subs. Any advice?

I have a question for alvitta and I have a question for jan

thank you Candance

exactly and look at the contracts that you have now

Question: As a sub contractor on the state level. Is it best to start with marketing your business to all the major prime contractors.

If anyone is interested here is a copy of my updated Capabilities Statement. I just completed it a few weeks back for a client.https://sdagency.net/public/download_file/98/0

Tough love!

Jan, you are correct to be added to the list. I received many calls the first year, then nothing after. Am I missing anything here?

Is there still time for questions?

That was great insight!!

Thank you both. You both are amazing!

Great info.
