One of the biggest reasons people don’t win grants isn’t because funding isn’t available —it’s because they aren’t positioned correctly when the opportunity shows up. From what I’ve seen, people usually lose out on grants because: ❌ They don’t have their business structured properly ❌ Their documents aren’t ready when deadlines hit ❌ They don’t clearly understand what the funder is looking for ❌ They apply without a real plan for how the funds will be used ❌ Or they wait until the last minute and rush everything Winning grants is less about luck and more about preparation + strategy. I’m curious what’s been your biggest struggle with grants so far? Finding them? Applying? Getting approved? Or just knowing where to start? Let’s talk. The right information could change everything. 💬
