Tips for Grant Application
-
Eligibility
Define the opportunity and make sure you are eligible and fit the scope for the specific grant. It is easy to spend time applying for grants which are not suitable for your business.
-
Timing
Ensure you are applying at an appropriate stage and have a clear opportunity to take advantage of. New funds open all around the year, so make sure to check Swoop’s grant finder on a regular basis for new grants you may be eligible for.
-
Costing
Outline the costs involved in the project and ensure you justify why they are needed and how much is needed to cover these costs.
-
Alignment
Have a defined project and outline, and highlight the impact it’ll have to align with the scope. Make your application worthy of receiving funding by ensuring you have done all the necessary preparation.
-
Objectives
Share your objectives clearly. Make sure you are clear what success looks like as a result of taking on a small business grant. How will you know when you’ve got there? What economic and social impact will your project have?
-
Accountability
Outline a timeline and projections of progress expected to be achieved as these will be monitored closely if you are successful and mentioned within the scope.
