APEX Accelerator: Winning Strategies and Proven Best Practices for Government Prospecting (2026 Update)
Description: Stop Chasing RFPs. Start Creating Opportunities. If your government sales strategy begins when the solicitation drops… you’re already behind. This fast-paced, high-energy session cuts through the noise and shows you where real government sales success actually starts pre-acquisition prospecting. Designed for small businesses operating (or planning to operate) in the federal space, this webinar delivers practical, real-world tactics you can apply immediately. What You’ll Learn:
The Prospecting Shift That Changes Everything
- The difference between acquisition and pre-acquisition
- Where successful contractors spend most of their time
- Why waiting for posted opportunities limits growth
Finding Agencies That Actually Buy What You Sell
- How to identify the right federal agencies and military commands
- How to evaluate whether they’re a real fit
- Where to prospect based on acquisition changes over the last five years

- Core to a winning sales strategy
Overcoming Small Business Roadblocks
- The most common prospecting challenges

Joshua Frank brings decades of hands-on experience advising and training government contractors and delivers it in a direct, engaging, no-nonsense style.
