John Wayne II has spent over 15 years inside the federal contracting world—not as a consultant who studied it from the outside, but as someone who learned it by doing it. He started his career as one of the top procurement specialists at US Federal Contractor Registration, where he helped hundreds of businesses navigate the SAM.gov system, write winning proposals, and understand a procurement process that most business owners find deliberately confusing.
In 2014, he was invited to speak at the National Black Chamber of Commerce Conference in Chicago, where he presented on SUBNET, Past Performance, and the GAO to a room of contractors and procurement officers. That same year, he launched GrowMyBusinessQuick.com—a platform built on one conviction: that any business, in any industry, can win government contracts if they have the right training and someone in their corner who knows how the system actually works.
Since then, he's trained thousands of business owners through daily live sessions, one-on-one coaching, and over 500 published training videos. His clients have won contracts in construction, IT services, food service, staffing, UAV operations, and dozens of other industries. Ninety percent of his clients win at least one contract within their first year. Some win their first in under 30 days.
He doesn't just teach the theory. He works through live solicitations with real clients in real time, every single day at 4pm Eastern. A retired U.S. Marine Corps Colonel called him 'impressive' and 'a gem to work with.' A former NAVFAC Northwest Contracting Officer confirmed his training is 'on par.' Two separate clients independently called him 'the Michael Jordan of government bids.'
That reputation wasn't built through marketing. It was built one contract at a time.
"I must be honest—I am a skeptic of online programs that ask me to pay money. Single-handedly, John Wayne has removed every shred of doubt that he is legit. He is not only knowledgeable—a literal master of the government contract business—but importantly, he is also a good-hearted, kind, professional man of great integrity. If John's a part of my team, I spent my money well and am going to see extraordinary returns on my investment."
"I am a retired Marine Corps Colonel. I am not easily impressed. John Wayne is impressive. He is knowledgeable, patient, and a gem to work with."
"I worked as a Contracting Officer at NAVFAC Northwest. This information you are discussing is on par. Thank you."
