Episode notes
Right now, a contract is being awarded in your state.
Not to the most qualified vendor. Not to the biggest company. To the one who showed up.
Episode 8 is about that gap between vendors who are ready and vendors who are actually winning. Abby breaks down five live opportunities, what the buyers are signaling, and exactly who needs to be in the room (that means you).
If you've been watching contracts go to someone else and wondering how this episode is your answer.
Dear Abby is back with the questions you're too afraid to ask in a LinkedIn comment.
The money is moving. The only question is whether it's moving toward you.
This Week in Procurement™ drops every week with five real opportunities, zero gatekeeping, and the strategy to back it up.
