The direct answer is you submit an acceptable GSA contract proposal in response to one of GSA's Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) Solicitations. You can find the solicitations by going to gsaelibrary.gsa.gov and searching for the schedule that fits your business. There is also some good training provided by GSA at their Vendor Support Center. You can get to the Vendor Support Center by going to vsc.gsa.gov. Click on the Vendor Training tab and check out the Pathway to Success training.
Preparing an acceptable proposal can be a difficult undertaking for those companies which have not responded to many federal proposals in the past. There are many components to the proposal and sometimes the instructions provided in the solicitation are not concise nor located in one place.
There are some books which can help you at Amazon.com and lulu.com; however, many of those books provide more GSA contracting theory than proposal preparation assistance. We know of at least one which provides six direct steps to a gsa proposal, but suggest you review all the possibilities.
Additionally, there are a multitude of companies which help businesses prepare acceptable GSA proposals. The pricing for a completely written proposal ranges from a couple of thousand dollars to well over ten thousand dollars. You can also find consulting, webinars and training modules which are offered by some of these companies.
The proposal writing process can take up to 100-200 man hours, and GSA takes an average 120-150 days or more to process proposals.

What is GSA approved?
It probably means you've been awarded a GSA MAS (Multiple Award Schedule) contract. GSA "approves" contractors for different GSA "Schedules" and having a contract number gives you the ability to sell direct to any USG buyer (for transactions above $3000). Here is some technical information from GSA's web site: "Orders placed against GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS) contracts, using the procedures in Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 8.4, are considered to be issued using full and open competition (see FAR 6.102(d)(3)). In addition, ordering activities are not required to make a separate determination of fair and reasonable pricing, except for the price evaluation required by FAR 8.405-2(d) when ordering services requiring a statement of work. By placing an order against a GSA Schedule contract, the ordering activity has concluded that the order represents the best value and results in the lowest overall cost alternative to meet the government's needs."
