In this episode of The Eric Coffie Show, Eric breaks down how small business owners can stay proactive and profitable—even during a government shutdown. He exposes the dangerous mindset of self-doubt that keeps entrepreneurs from acting and shows why focusing on funded agencies, tracking real contract data, and calling award winners are game-changing moves. Eric shares real examples from his own experience proving that contracts are still being awarded every day — and how persistence separates those who win from those who watch others win.

Key Takeaways:

• Focus where the money flows: Target agencies that are still funded and awarding contracts despite shutdowns.

• Call award winners: Don’t assume doors are closed — real outreach creates new opportunities.

• Fix your mindset: Stop telling yourself “they already have someone.” Winners stay hungry, persistent, and visible.
