Description
Ready for the Fast Track to Grant Writer? www.teresahuff.com/vip Someone the other day asked how to get started with his grant writing career. He's volunteering at a nonprofit already and wants to step up into paid consulting work. I share 6 ways he can learn valuable grant writing skills in his nonprofit volunteer role. This topic is a sneak peek into my mentoring program Fast Track to Grant Writer. We learn plenty of the pro grant writing tips. As one VIP Fast Track student said, "Understanding the writing PRO tips was so good. Grant writing is nuanced and it helps to get some insider tips to help craft our writing.” We also go over exactly how to use those tips. Another Fast Track student said, “I appreciate all the ways you are showing us how we can help non-profits. There are many nuggets we can incorporate into consulting that I hadn't previously considered. Even if they've read the books and taken the courses, new grant writers STILL ask me questions like: How do I find clients and market myself? How much do I charge? Should I work for free? How do I find a job working for a nonprofit without any experience? We cover ALL this and so much more in Fast Track to Grant Writer. Here’s the thing, friends - I'm not going to dump a bunch of cookie cutter grant writing lessons on you and say, “Now go write your grant!” Grants aren’t that way, and I don’t believe mentoring should be either. Sign up for the Fast Track to Grant Writer VIP Program at teresahuff.com/vip. We are having SO much fun! The doors are open until March 25 for the Spring 2021 cohort! Spots are limited though, so the sooner you sign up, the better. My friend, the world needs you out there making a difference. It’s time to get you on the Fast Track.
