FAQ
Can for-profit companies and small businesses apply for grants, or are they only for non-profits?
Yes, absolutely! For-profits can secure funding through specialized programs like federal SBIR/STTR and various local economic grants. My service handles research and writing for both non-profit and for-profit opportunities.
How much does professional grant writing cost for a comprehensive proposal?
Costs vary based on grant complexity (e.g., federal vs. foundation) and scope (research, writing, submission). My prices are tiered for flexibility, typically starting from $50 to $350 for a single, expertly written grant proposal.
Do you guarantee funding success if I hire you to write my grant?
No ethical writer guarantees funding, as decisions are made solely by the funder. However, professional writing significantly maximizes your chances of success by ensuring the proposal is compliant, strategic, and compellingly presented.
What is the average success rate for grants written by a professional grant writer?
Success rates vary greatly, but well-researched and expertly written proposals for new funders often achieve success rates of 50% to 65%. I focus on strategic fit to significantly increase your organization's probability of being selected.
What key information or documents do I need to provide to start the grant writing process?
I need your mission/history, a clear project plan (goals, activities), the preliminary budget, legal documents (Tax ID), and any relevant data. This forms the foundation for a successful proposal.
Can you help us find new grant opportunities, or do we have to provide the RFPs?
Yes, I offer specialized Grant Research & Identification using professional databases. I strategically identify the best-fit funding opportunities that align perfectly with your mission and project needs.
Is it ethical for a grant writer to be paid a percentage of the awarded grant amount (contingency fee)?
No. Charging a commission or percentage is widely considered unethical by professional organizations (GPA, AFP). I charge a flat fee or project rate, ensuring compensation is based on the quality of the work, not the funder's decision.
How long does the entire grant writing and submission process take?
Simple proposals take about 7-14 days once all information is ready. Complex federal grants may take 3-4 weeks. I recommend starting the process well in advance of the deadline for the highest quality submission.
