Are you thinking about a career in grant writing, but don't know where to start?
I have a passion to train and equip grant writers with the skills they need to be successful because I had an amazing mentor who helped me get started. In today's episode of Grant Writing Simplified, I had a blast talking shop with my friend and fellow grant writing mentor, Holly Rustic. After nearly twenty years as a grant writing consultant, Holly has dedicated herself to teaching a tribe of grant writers to drive positive change for nonprofits while having an abundant lifestyle.
In this episode, we talk about the top questions we hear from new grant writers. You'll benefit from our combined forty years of grant writing experience and get answers to your top freelance grant writing questions.
Grab a pen and notepad because you're about to get loads of actionable guidance and practical advice as Holly and I share everything we wish we had known when we started grant writing, such as:
Where do I start?
What kind of experience do I need?
Should I write for free?
How do I negotiate prices and rate increases?
How can I avoid misunderstandings with clients?
How do I present my value as a grant writer to potential clients?
What is a Master Grant Template and how will it help you make the world a better place?
