Praise for SELLING to the government "This is the perfect book to understand how to do business with the government.

Mark provides tremendous insight into the federal market." —Karen EvansPartner, National Director for the U.S. Cyber Challenge, and former administrator, E-Government and Information Technology, Executive Office of the President, Office of Management and Budget "I've witnessed Mark Amtower in action on his home turf in Washington, D.C.—he's acertified genius about marketing and selling to government. In this book, he shares his secrets. Mark shows you that making money (lots of it) selling to the government doesn't need to be mysterious, and you'll learn exactly what you need to do to succeed." —David Meerman Scottbestselling author of The New Rules of Marketing and PR and coauthor ofMarketing Lessons from the Grateful Dead "Mark Amtower has been the go-to guy for marketing to the federal government for more years than I can remember.

It's the bargain of the century!" —Bob Blycopywriter "What Zig Ziglar is to selling, Mark Amtower is to government marketing.
