eVA is Virginia’s online, electronic procurement system - a web-based vendor registration and purchasing system that allows state agencies, colleges, universities and many local governments to conduct all purchasing and sourcing activities for goods and services. Learn how eVA is used to identify the right business opportunities & government buyers.
This advanced workshop focuses on lead generation. This hands-on session explores the public transparency tools available on the eVA website, including the Report & Resource Center and the new “power” search. You’ll learn how to:
Identify buyers who are buying what you sell
Determine prices being paid for goods/services
Identify who’s getting business (is it you or your competition)
We'll also walk through the Virginia Business Opportunities public posting page – featuring collaboration tools like B2B Connect & VIBE – as we discuss how & when eVA builds a lead list for you and why rating your leads is important.
