What does it mean to you?
For some it’s a statement.
Others a lapel pin.
It’s a symbol of unity.
A morale boost
A blanket of honor.
A way to start the day.
It’s the marker of where we’ve been.
And where we’re going.
It’s an initiation.
The fabric of our country, outside
of government buildings, businesses and homes
across the country.
We the people of the United States are the
strands that make up the fabric.
And we must stick together in the best of
times and the worst.
Between 2008 and 2010 when The Great Recession
brought 170,000 business owners to their knees,
when 2.6 million Americans lost their jobs.
We stuck together.
Businesses expecting the typical 5% increase in consumer spending
Instead experienced a near 5% decrease.
The individual strands were stressed, but,
the fabric did remain strong.
Government spending toward small
business increased by 6.8% during the recession years.
The introduced a stimulus plan to help
the public retain a quality of life and in
turn to help businesses stay strong.
The government contractor became like a hero
to help.
To rebuild infrastructure, maintain our defense,
keep public services strong, recover from
disaster and even to continue to grow and
innovate.
If a business was registered in the government’s
contractor registration system, they could provide.
With programs in place to help small business
compete on equal footing with the biggest of the big
nearly 100 billion dollars was
awarded every year to small businesses owned
by people of all creeds.
Not only did we get through the recession,
but businesses who were set-up to help
as federal contractors…many of them came out stronger.
It is a fact that many businesses closed their
doors during this time too.
And if history is any guide, this is going
to happen again.
Imagine if you knew in 2007 that the government
was going to continue spending while everyone
else cut back.
Imagine if you acted on that fact and your
competitor didn’t.
Do you want to recession-proof your business?
Sell your products and services to a client
who is always buying even in the worst of

Government contracting is the life support
for our country’s strength.
Underappreciated during the good times.
Essential during the bad.

system.
It will not only help the country be stronger.
But, it will help you be stronger.
The government doesn’t require that every
business take this path.
But they do require registration once the
business has made the decision to do so.
Since 2010, US Federal Contractor Registration
processed 100,000 compliant SAM registrations
for businesses, organizations and government
agencies.

and we'll be there when it happens again.
