THE PEACEFUL SCALE SYSTEM
S: SYSTEMS AND SOPS
- Systems and SOPs will allow you to create efficiencies in your business AND also help when you hire a Virtual Assistant, Online Business Manager, Content Developer, etc. Without these, you will hire and then get frustrated.
- 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 smooth business.
C: Calendar Space
- Clearing your Calendar Space is essential to become a CEO of your grant writing business
- Stop working evenings, weekends, and holidays being stuck in everything in your business.
- Learn how to take a real vacation while still having income for your grant writing company (even while you are away).
- Free up time to think about creating those passive income streams, webinars, lead generators, and online courses!
A: Abundance Mindset
- Step into a wealthy mindset which will lead to an affluence/abundance of ideal nonprofit clients, partners, and financial wealth.
- Create payroll relief as you understand techniques of how to grow your business peacefully without a ton of consultants or employees.
- Get relief as you start creating a business that has flow instead of getting stuck in paralysis of indecision.
L: Level Up Your Legacy
- Create a legacy of a business by improving your systems so your business can run without you and even be sold.
- Be a leader in the grant writing space with your unique industry concept that you are passionate about.
- Create massive change in areas that you are passionate about by streamlining your services and creating more time in your schedule to have meaningful thought work on how you can enhance the cause area that you are passionate about. Yes, your business can do that!
E: Enjoy Your Business & Life
- 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.
- 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.
- Get that excitement back about your business and out of overwhelm. It’s time to take the time to reflect and put some processes in place so you don’t burn your business to the ground, but prune what’s not working and nurture what is.

Our Group Coaching Includes:
- Accountability Calls – Every quarter we have a dedicated Accountability Call to reflect on your goals, wins, challenges, and epiphanies on the past quarter. These calls are integral to understand how to evaluate your business on a consistent frequency so you can course correct for your annual goal.

This will also give you an opportunity to connect with other members, share your business wins, and more so you can get over decision paralysis.
Business & Grant Reviews
Do you want a proposal reviewed before you submit it to a client or even a grant proposal reviewed before you send to a client? We got your back! You can get personalized feedback on anything you are developing in your business or grant. Mentees have increased their grant writing success dramatically just by tapping into the review channel!
Be Featured on the Grant Writing & Funding Website
Do you want to have thousands of people see your company for hire every single month? You can get listed under our ‘Hire a Grant Writer’ page. 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!

#1: It’s Relevant
There are a lot of business memberships and masterminds out there, but there are no mentorships that focus on grant writers to grow their businesses from someone who has done it! You get all of Holly’s strategies in how she built up and grew a successful grant writing agency AND who now has developed a multi-6 figure online grant coaching business. She knows how to get you from burnout and overwhelm and via systems to a place of more calendar space while growing revenue.
#2: It’s Simple
If you have hundreds of hours of content, weekly long sessions, and lots of homework you are not going to do it.
We need simple tools and methods that do just enough to: a) free up some of our time and b) make sure we get the strategies done!
Plus, you get SOPs, hiring systems, and templates to adjust to YOUR business.
It is simple, but loaded with the vital steps to move forward.
#3: It’s 12 Months
We focus on our goals every single quarter and how they feed into your annual plan. If you are not evaluating your business, you will be stuck in a tailspin of burnout. You will be hopping between website, pricing, social media, and checking your email (sometimes all in the same hour). No more. When you join the Grant Professional Mentorship, you will be focused and have a supportive group to keep you accountable as you implement systems in your business throughout a full 12 months.
What’s next for you?
Now is the time to make the decision about what’s next for you.
You can keep on doing what you’ve been doing, and keep getting the same results. You can keep running your business like a charity by offering deep discounts to nonprofit clients who ask for pro bono work.
Or you can learn from my experience of working with grant writers growing their businesses — and save yourself years of frustration and spinning your wheels.
To reach your goals of growing your revenue without increasing burnout for your grant writing business, you have to make a change.
I’ve spent thousands and thousands of dollars and years of work to get the level of success I’m offering you with this program.
This is what you’ve been looking for: a proven system used by grant writers that will allow you to grow your business with intention and joy.
Let’s triple your revenue in 12 months and get you to working 4 days a week.
