The Hobby That Earns $200M in Government Contracts
Have you ever wondered if you could get paid for something you already enjoy doing?
In this video, I break down real examples of hobbies that the U.S. federal government is actively spending millions of dollars on every year.
Most people think government contracting is only about defense systems, IT, or construction. The reality is very different. The federal government is the single largest buyer of goods and services in the world, and that includes areas most people would never expect.
We’re talking about government contracts tied to yoga instruction and wellness programs, ATV and off-road vehicle training, 3D printing and additive manufacturing, foreign language translation and interpretation, and even professional dog training services.
These are not edge cases. These are recurring federal spending categories that create real opportunities for small businesses, consultants, and professionals who understand how federal procurement works.
Join us at the Live GovClose workshop in Houston, Texas, 25 March 2026.
We’re going to cover the tactics and strategies that have worked for me, my clients and companies that I helped as a government acquisitions officer. Check out the below link to see our agenda, details, and how to register.
See you in Houston!
