I tripled my revenue in less than 6 months

 "By joining the Grant Professional Mentorship, I now have systems that helped me triple my income in less than six months! In this time, I even redefined my ideal client and now these ideal clients are MY clients. Plus, I did the $10K challenge and secured $10K in 10 days!"

KIM C., GRANT PROFESSIONAL CEO



"I raised my prices and pitch with confidence"

 "Holly's guidance and mentorship while I was growing my newish grant consulting practice was invaluable! The group format providing feedback and idea-sharing with others in a similar position has helped me pitch new clients with greater confidence, more effectively screen prospective clients, and raise my fees by articulating the value I provide."

ALEX C., NONPROFIT CONSULTANT & GRANT PROFESSIONAL



I don't back down on pricing any longer

 "The Grant Professional Mentorship is where I met Kim and we are now working together to get clients at our top rates! We don't back down on pricing any longer and have each other to support in bids!"

NATASHA M., GRANT & NONPROFIT PROFESSIONAL, CEO & HAPPY MENTEE



Is this you?

You have some revenue coming in, but it’s not increasing at the speed you want. You aren’t sure how to manage a team to have more profit in your business without working more.

You know that hiring a grant writer, a virtual assistant, or someone to help would make all the difference. But you aren’t sure what to charge, how to manage them well, or how to keep a profit

You’re growing a business, but you are burned out.
You started this business for more freedom in your schedule, but now find yourself working more than ever.

You started a grant writing business and have income but getting clients is still a hamster wheel, and you feel like you are living contract to contract. 

Or maybe you are a combination of all 4.

You’re Burned Out.



You’re Stuck.



You’re Anxious.



You're Confused.



Our Streamline System Framework will help your operations so you have more peace and profit while you scale. You will develop clear SOPs, Systems, and Processes to give yourself boundaries.

***If you are only thinking about starting a grant writing business or have NO income yet, then check out our Freelance Grant Writer Academy.


When you apply our Mentorship’s Curriculum and Coaching…

You will finally be able to run your business as an industry leader. You will learn how to run 5-figure workshops, on-demand grant writing courses, and stand out as an industry trainer and coach in the industry with our Scalable Offers Training.


You will get our Part-Time Lean Team Method to get out of the ‘stuck in a rock and a hard place’ with the money to hire. You’ll learn who to hire first, how to manage them, and how much your business can afford to pay.


You can double, triple, or quadruple your revenue in 12 months without writing more grants. 







You will keep client intimacy and quality as you scale with our Business Quality System. We show you how to double your revenue while improving relationships without sacrificing client intimacy & quality.

What is included in our Mentorship

Having CEO Systems means you have the processes to think about your business and stop only writing grants in your business. Without the CEO Systems, you will fall short of scaling your business because every task is in your mind, scattered on separate folders/workspaces, or customized each time you do it. 

This is the magic that will give you the time to focus ON your business and step into the fullness of being a Business Owner. Our Streamline System Framework gives you the processes, philosophies, and templates to create rinse and repeat systems to run your business with ease. Your business is an evolution and when you have systems and SOPs in place, you can easily tweak processes instead of starting from scratch. 

  • Save Time - From your onboarding clients to onboarding grant writers, you have systems that do the work for you.

  • Have Quality Control - when you have SOPs and Systems in your business, you create more time. With this time, you can stop doing constantly and start pausing to have second eyes on that grant, send invoices on time, or give feedback on social media content instead of creating it from scratch.

  • Be Financially Safe - your income is variable, but you do not need to feel unsafe. When you scale your business, you can create safety with finances, allocate for business investments, and savings.

  • Feel Abundant - Get relief as you scale a business that has flow instead of getting stuck in paralysis of indecision.

With the Streamline System Framework, you will:

CEO systems

So many grant professionals feel safe working by themselves and aren’t sure where they can even find the time to think about hiring, and figure it takes longer to train someone rather than doing it themselves.

We help you overcome these worries and give you the tools to:

1) know how much your business can afford,
2) who to hire first,
3) how to delegate with a team member so you act neutrally, and
4) what to focus on in your business with your time. You will learn our Part-Time Lean Team Method - whether that means getting one part-time virtual assistant or managing a larger grant writer agency. You will repeat our method with every new hire as your grant writing business grows.

  • Stop the Grind - Stop doing all the administrative tasks in your business.

  • Shift your business from 24/7 burnout of doing all the things into having CEO confidence and more peace.

  • Have all the resources to learn how to hire, automate systems, eliminate unproductive tasks, and create a streamlined and profitable business.

  • Take Time off in your business! Stop working weekends and evenings and start planning for time off. This is the reason you started a grant writing business. Now start living it.

With the Part-Time Lean Team Method, you will:

Grant Team

Get that excitement back about your business and out of overwhelm. It’s time to take the time to reflect on your grant writing services and prune what’s not working and nurture what is. In our Quality Business System you will go through our Business Reset Workshop and identify what is working and what is not working in your business. 

You will also reflect on your pricing, using our Value-Based Pricing Method, and also evaluate which type of retainer package is best for cash flow in your business. 

  • Get Clarity - You started your business with a ‘why’ and it’s time to return to that ‘why’ and make it real in your business and life.

  • Have More Joy - Enjoy the parts of your business that you love, while learning how to efficiently outsource what you do not love or that is draining your energy.

  • Increase Quality - Keep your clients close, even when narrowing down your offers. You can have better client quality and intimacy, even if you hire a grant writer, because you have time to focus on your business.

With the Quality Business System, you will:

Quality Services

Getting consistent cash flow through client services isn’t your only way to scale offers. Because you are growing your company and your expertise in your community and cause area, you can also build scaling offers such as training, workshops, and courses. 

  • Create 5-Figure Grant Writing Workshops/Trainings - elevate your position as an expert in your grant writing cause area and community and create an additional income. Holly gives you behind the scenes to her consistent 5-figure workshops that have brought in more than 6-figures into her business.

  • Create On-Demand Grant Courses - translate your skills into an online course with a clear framework on how Holly has created multi 6-figures in her business

  • Grant Marketing Plans - learn lead generation, opt-ins, and more on your online presence and a go-to guide for your in-person community to scale your offerings.

  • Legacy - Create a legacy of a business by improving your scaling offers so your business can run without you and even be sold.


With the Scaling Offers System, you will:

I tripled my revenue and doubled my clients

"The Grant Professional Mentorship has helped me triple my revenue and double my clients. I love how it gave me systems to niche down, how it's reflected on my website, and how it reflects in my marketing. This has made it easier to then come up with my plan for the year."

DEBORAH R., PERFORMING ARTS GRANT PROFESSIONAL, CEO & HAPPY MENTEE



I now make more money than my full-time job

"Business is amazing—thanks to YOU! I've kept my full-time salaried job, but I now make more as a consultant. My life has COMPLETELY changed thanks to you, the resources you've provided, and the community you've fostered. I feel like such a rock star and I know the best is yet to come. I am so, so grateful for you, Holly."

KELLY D., GRANT PROFESSIONAL



I tripled my revenue in less than 6 months

"I tripled my revenue in six months and I love my business! Work doesn't dominate everything because I have a scheduled system in place. Those systems enable me to do what I do now. I may update them, but I’m not reinventing the wheel and I have templates for everything."

JILL T., GRANT PROFESSIONAL CEO



Do you want to have thousands of people see your company for hire every single month? You can get listed under our Grant Writer for Hire Directory. Even if you have had your business for awhile, you still might not have a website. It takes time to gain SEO and get traffic to your website, LinkedIn handle, and more. Leveraging our website that gets thousands of views every single month is a fantastic way to leverage traffic that already comes to our website! This has helped many in our Mentorship gain clients and get leads!

    The Grant Professional Mentorship is for grant writers who already have some momentum in their businesses and are looking to scale with systems, a part-time team, and 5-figure+ workshops or an online grant writing course.

    If you are new to grant writing or starting a grant writing business, we recommend you first start with the Freelance Grant Writer Academy.

    Q3




    You have access to the Mentorship for a full 12-months once you enter the program.

    You only have access to the courses and all benefits (including being listed on the GW&F website) if you are enrolled in the Grant Professional Mentorship.

    Q4

    It is important to know that you do need to invest time working ‘on’ your business. But when you do this it will help you eliminate ‘busy work’ and do efficient work that brings in revenue with taking the least amount of time. This is because you will be laser-focused on doing the important work in your business and having accountability that you are actually implementing it!

    We meet weekly for 60 minutes for each call. You do not need to attend every call to get results. If you are not able to attend, you can always watch the replays in our portal or listen to them on your podcast player as a private podcast.

    You are also able to get into Slack every day to ask questions, but do not need to be in there all the time.

    The curriculum is broken down into 10-15 minutes so you can get through smaller sections in a shorter amount of time. Many mentees like to binge-watch over a weekend and then return to when submitting their plans. Others like to schedule it out quarter by quarter. 

    Whether you are working full-time or run a business full-time you will be able to dedicate the time you need to get support in your business.

    Q5

    Once you get up to around $2,500-$3,000 per month in your grant writing business, then it’s a good time to start investing in the Grant Professional Mentorship program. However, that is not a hard number. If you know that you have clients coming in and want to start putting more hiring systems in place, then it’s a good time to join. 

    The Freelance Grant Writer Academy gives you the step-by-step tools and resources to start and grow your business and is a GREAT additional resource.

    However, the Grant Professional Mentorship is different in that it offers a different curriculum and with peers who are at a different level in their businesses. 

    We do not teach grant writing (as we do in the Academy) and instead focus on 
    Teaching SOPs, 
    Hiring a Part-Time Team, 
    Scaling Your Offers, 
    Developing a 5-Figure Grant Workshop, 
    Developing an Online Grant Writing Course, and 
    Online Marketing Plan.
    Business Reviews that focus on the Mentorship Curriculum

    The Freelance Grant Writer Academy is an amazing course to get you kick-started, but the Grant Professional Mentorship keeps you going after the honeymoon phase has ended!

    *There are no discounts to the Mentorship if you already own the Freelance Grant Writer Academy. 

    Q6




    Here at Grant Writing & Funding we have a no refund policy. Holly cares about the success of each and everyone of her students. She also cares about value of respecting one another’s time.

    She encourages you to take the time to read the sales page and email her (holly@grantwritingandfunding.com) if you have any questions.

    We are here to help if you need any assistance before and after joining the program.

    Q7




    You can always choose to leave the program, but you will not get reimbursed, and if you are under a payment plan you will not get future payments voided. You are under contract for the entire 12 months. 

    This is not a membership, but it is a commitment and investment into a 12-month coaching program.

    Q8

    We put a substantial amount of resources, time, energy, and money into our programs and have no discounts or scholarships available at this time.


    Q9




    CAN I CANCEL ANYTIME?

    Do you offer scholarships or discounts?

    DO YOU OFFER REFUNDS?

    IF I AM NEW TO STARTING A FREELANCE GRANT WRITER BUSINESS, SHOULD I JOIN?

    WHAT'S ALL IN THE MENTORSHIP?

    I AM IN THE FREELANCE GRANT WRITER ACADEMY. SHOULD I ALSO GET THE GRANT PROFESSIONAL MENTORSHIP?

    HOW IS THE PROGRAM DELIVERED?

    HOW LONG DO I HAVE ACCESS TO THE GRANT PROFESSIONAL MENTORSHIP PROGRAM?

    HOW MUCH TIME DOES THE PROGRAM TAKE?

    WHAT'S ALL IN THE MENTORSHIP?

    Q3



    You have access to the Mentorship for a full 12-months once you enter the program.

    You only have access to the courses and all benefits (including being listed on the GW&F website) if you are enrolled in the Grant Professional Mentorship.

    HOW LONG DO I HAVE ACCESS TO THE GRANT PROFESSIONAL MENTORSHIP PROGRAM?

    Q4

    It is important to know that you do need to invest time working ‘on’ your business. But when you do this it will help you eliminate ‘busy work’ and do efficient work that brings in revenue with taking the least amount of time. This is because you will be laser-focused on doing the important work in your business and having accountability that you are actually implementing it!

    We meet weekly for 60 minutes for each call. You do not need to attend every call to get results. If you are not able to attend, you can always watch the replays in our portal or listen to them on your podcast player as a private podcast.

    You are also able to get into Slack every day to ask questions, but do not need to be in there all the time.

    The curriculum is broken down into 10-15 minutes so you can get through smaller sections in a shorter amount of time. Many mentees like to binge-watch over a weekend and then return to when submitting their plans. Others like to schedule it out quarter by quarter. 

    Whether you are working full-time or run a business full-time you will be able to dedicate the time you need to get support in your business.

    HOW MUCH TIME DOES THE PROGRAM TAKE?

    Q5



    Once you get up to around $2,500-$3,000 per month in your grant writing business, then it’s a good time to start investing in the Grant Professional Mentorship program. However, that is not a hard number. If you know that you have clients coming in and want to start putting more hiring systems in place, then it’s a good time to join. 

    The Freelance Grant Writer Academy gives you the step-by-step tools and resources to start and grow your business and is a GREAT additional resource.

    However, the Grant Professional Mentorship is different in that it offers a different curriculum and with peers who are at a different level in their businesses. 

    We do not teach grant writing (as we do in the Academy) and instead focus on 
    Teaching SOPs, 
    Hiring a Part-Time Team, 
    Scaling Your Offers, 
    Developing a 5-Figure Grant Workshop, 
    Developing an Online Grant Writing Course, and 
    Online Marketing Plan.

    The Freelance Grant Writer Academy is an amazing course to get you kick-started, but the Grant Professional Mentorship keeps you going after the honeymoon phase has ended!

    *There are no discounts to the Mentorship if you already own the Freelance Grant Writer Academy.

    However, how the Grant Professional Mentorship is different in that it is a long-term accountability and feedback program to keep your momentum going! The Freelance Grant Writer Academy is an amazing course to get you kick-started, but the Grant Professional Mentorship keeps you going after the honeymoon phase has ended!

    *There are no discounts to the Mentorship if you already own the Grant Writing Master Course, the Freelance Grant Writer Academy, or the Nonprofit Strategic Planning Master course. The Mentorship program without these is worth more than $5,000 and these are just additional courses to help you succeed!

    Q6

    I AM IN THE FREELANCE GRANT WRITER ACADEMY. SHOULD I ALSO GET THE GRANT PROFESSIONAL MENTORSHIP?

    Here at Grant Writing & Funding we have a no refund policy. Holly cares about the success of each and everyone of her students. She also cares about value of respecting one another’s time.

    She encourages you to take the time to read the sales page and email her (holly@grantwritingandfunding.com) if you have any questions.

    We are here to help if you need any assistance before and after joining the program.

    DO YOU OFFER REFUNDS?

    Q8



    You can always choose to leave the program, but you will not get reimbursed, and if you are under a payment plan you will not get future payments voided. You are under contract for the entire 12 months. 

    This is not a membership, but it is a commitment and investment into a 12-month coaching program.

    When you consider joining, know that your investment and commitment for 12 months is what will make your business grow in leaps and strides!

    Therefore, we want you to commit to invest in your business and this community for the year.

    Having an option out isn’t real commitment. But putting some ‘skin in the game’ guarantees a higher level of growth in your time, energy and the real impact: your financial growth.

    We offer a 12-month payment plan to assist you with your budget while growing your freelance grant writing business!

    Q9



    Can I cancel at any time?

    We put a substantial amount of resources, time, energy, and money into our programs and have no discounts or scholarships available at this time.

    Do you offer scholarships or discounts?
