I don’t have the right people in place

It’s impossible to plan and budget for the classified work

- DoD Security Clearance and Contracts Guidebook-What Defense Contractors Need to Know About Their Need to Know,
After 25 years in the Army and industrial security business, you can say that "He's been there and done that". Jeff wrote this book with you in mind. He specifically addresses the requirements of defense contractors operating under the Department of Defense oversight.
Jeff's first book was a study guide for security certification. He took the test and passed, but did not experience some of the issues other test takers had. His study method helped him sail through the exam and he knew he could help others do the same. He wrote a short study guide and made it available to colleagues and they encouraged him to get it online so others could benefit.

After that, he wrote Get Rich in a Niche to teach others how to build their own businesses.
