How to Use BidBanter CRM & DealMaker Call Journal to Save Time

One of the biggest reasons small businesses struggle in GovCon isn’t ability — it’s time. Between searching SAM.gov, chasing subcontractors, and keeping up with deadlines, most owners burn out before they ever win a contract.

That’s exactly why I created the BidBanter Template, DealMaker Call Journal, and BidWinner CRM. These tools aren’t just “nice to have” — they’re time savers that make GovCon manageable for real entrepreneurs.

Here’s how each one works together to keep you organized and free up hours in your week.

Small business owner using GovCon tools to stay organized and save time

1. BidBanter Template: Faster Subcontractor Outreach

Reaching out to subcontractors can be awkward. You don’t know what to say, you spend too long writing emails, and sometimes you don’t even get replies.

BidBanter fixes that by giving you ready-to-use outreach templates.

  • Saves time writing custom messages

  • Makes you look professional

  • Gets quicker responses

👉 Instead of spending an hour drafting emails, you copy, paste, send — and move on.

2. DealMaker Call Journal: No More Lost Notes

How many times have you spoken to a contracting officer or sub, scribbled notes on a napkin, and then couldn’t find them later?

The DealMaker Call Journal keeps everything in one place.

  • Tracks who you called, when, and what was said

  • Helps you follow up without missing a beat

  • Cuts down wasted time searching for “that piece of paper”

💡 Pro tip: Following up fast makes you look like the business that has it together — and that matters in GovCon.

3. BidWinner CRM: Keep Bids Organized

If you’re managing multiple opportunities, you need a system. The BidWinner CRM was designed for GovCon, not generic sales.

  • Stores bids, documents, and deadlines in one dashboard

  • Automates reminders so nothing slips through the cracks

  • Saves you from juggling messy spreadsheets

👉 Organization isn’t just about being neat — it saves you hours and helps you actually submit on time.

Your Next Step

Individually, these tools save you minutes. Together, they save you hours every week — and that’s the difference between chasing opportunities and actually winning them.
