THE DOORS ARE OPEN TO THE FREELANCE GRANT WRITER ACADEMY! The Academy is for new and aspiring grant writer so you can Replace Your Full-Time Income, on Part-Time Hours, Writing Grants & Funding Assets from Home. Join before Sunday, June 22nd at 11:59 pm EST. https://grantwritingandfunding.com/academyWelcome back to another episode of Grant Writing & Funding, the podcast designed especially for all you changemakers out there, looking to grow funding and capacity for your causes and communities. In this episode, we'll be discussing strategies that will not only help you grow your grant writing business but also free up time for yourself and stimulate creativity. One of the key points we'll be exploring is how to take a much-needed vacation while still earning income for your business. Yes, it's possible! By implementing effective systems and processes, we can achieve that elusive work-life balance and create space for generating passive income streams, hosting webinars, developing online courses, and fostering higher-level relationships. But before we delve deeper into that, I have an exciting announcement to make. We're opening the doors to our 12-month coaching program, the "Grant Professional Mentorship," designed for grant writers who already have their own companies and are looking to take them to the next level. The doors will remain open until Sunday, October 1st, after which they won't reopen until later in 2024. So, if you're serious about growing your grant writing business, this is your opportunity. During the Grant Professional Mentorship, we'll guide you through a comprehensive curriculum, covering everything from training, hiring, and delegating, to business system resets, creating calendar space, and even taking that much-needed vacation. Our focus is on empowering you to attract ideal nonprofit clients, partners, and financial wealth using an abundant mindset. And that's not all! We have an incredible workshop coming up, the "Business Reset Strategy Workshop," taking place on October 3rd. You will have access to join this workshop, when you join the Grant Professional Mentorship by October 1st. This workshop, held inside our mentorship learning portal, will address topics such as value-based pricing strategies, service offer promise training, setting policies for defining boundaries, and effective marketing strategies to boost your business. I know many of you grant writers find yourselves working every minute, feeling overwhelmed and on the verge of burnout. It's crucial to remind yourself of your "why" and create the necessary systems and standard operating procedures to maintain balance. ------------------------------------------------ ✨💌 Get FREE Grant Writing Resources when You Join the Grant Writing Hub Haven: https://grantwritingandfunding.com/get-started/ 👉💰🖥️ Grant Writing Master Course: https://grantwritingandfunding.com/grant-writing-master-course/ 🖥️🔥 👉 Want to get paid to write grants? https://grantwritingandfunding.com/freelance-grant-writer-course/ 🤗☕👉 Want to increase funding strategies for your https://grantwritingandfunding.com/nonprofit-strategic-planning/ ——————————————————————————— To learn more about this episode AND get the full links for each of these, click here: https://grantwritingandfunding.com/290 Favor, please?
