I am incredibly grateful for the guidance and support I received through the Next Level Contract-Readiness Mentorship Program. Coach Gilbert helped me build a solid, organized back office and gave me the structure, tools, and confidence to move from “thinking about contracts” to being truly contract-ready. Because of this mentorship, my business is now prepared to pursue government and corporate opportunities, and I have earned my certifications as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB), Minority Business Enterprise (MBE), and Women’s Business Enterprise (WBE). I highly recommend this program and Coach Gilbert to any small business owner who is serious about getting ready for real contract opportunities.
