FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: Q: What if I make introductions but no contract signs? A: You get $0. That's contingency. Q: What if contract signs but client doesn't pay? A: You get paid when we get paid. If they don't pay, nobody gets paid. Q: Can I work with other companies? A: Yes, unless there's direct conflict with our opportunities. Q: What support do you provide? A: Proposals, demos, technical answers, compliance docs. No financial support. Q: How long until first commission? A: Typically 4-9 months from first introduction. THE TRUTH: This is NOT for everyone. Most people can't/won't work on pure contingency. The sales cycles are long. The uncertainty is high. But for the right person with the right relationships and financial stability, the upside is enormous. Think:

  • Can you survive 6 months without income?
  • Do you have real government opportunities NOW?
  • Are you willing to bet on yourself?
  • Do you believe in our ability to deliver?
