Washington DC Event Smashes Barriers for Businesses in the Federal Government Marketplace.
Linthicum Heights, MD. — June 6, 2017 – TargetGov announces that its CEO and Founder, Gloria Larkin is presenting “Telling Your Business Story: Building Standout Capability Statements and Pitches” at the American Express OPEN for Government Contracting: Summit for Success on June 15, 2017 at the Marriott Marquis Washington, DC. This one-day event covers topics such as how to market businesses, as well as new rules and regulations that affect businesses in today’s changing business environment.
“We have helped businesses win over $4 billion in federal contracts in the last six years and every one of those contracts started with either a person to person meeting or a targeted capability statement” says Ms. Larkin. “This market has changed and even experienced business people do not know how to present themselves in a way that decision-makers find compelling. This session addresses how to be the perfect match.”
Ms. Larkin is joined by Jared Weiss, a speaker, story-teller and founder of Overture where he works with people and brands in pursuit of the simplest and most inspiring words to describe who they are and what they do. Their joint session will teach businesses how to set themselves apart with powerful capability statements and memorable elevator pitches.
This session is one of four break-out session times each with three presentations. There are also Meet the Mentor roundtables, networking opportunities, contract connections meetings and keynote speakers. This nationally attended event is a must-attend for businesses in growth mode.
