Navigating the road of freelance grant writing can feel lonely and overwhelming at times.
That’s why I was so excited when Tawanda Ellis reached out to me via a mutual friend, Dr. Beverly Browning. I was inspired to hear about Tawanda’s roadmap and success as a freelancer. Honestly, the people who follow a roadmap normally do end up in the same place of success as Tawanda. But the type of person who commits to this is few and far between.
That’s why I get so excited when talking to other freelance grant writers who have built a business out of their house and from their talents.
This lady has done precisely that, and I know you will be just as encouraged and inspired as I was!
Plus, you can download Tawanda’s downloadable, the “Write it Out Method.”
In this podcast and YouTube episode, we discuss:
- How Tawanda got 25+ clients in less than 3 years with only word-of-mouth advertising
- How she secured $2.8 million in grant funding
- How she helps nonprofits come up with strategies
- Why she started an additional business: MirrorMom360
- The reasoning behind her business names
- The reflection time
- The ‘Write It Out’ Method
