Produktbeschreibung

TAKE THE FIVE STEPS TO BECOME A FEARLESS GRANT SEEKER In Demystifying Grant Seeking, authors Larissa Golden Brown and Martin John Brown offer down-to-earth advice on implementing an effective grant-seeking process based on the art of fearless grant seeking. Written for nonprofit professionals and fundraisers--no matter what their level of expertise--this hands-on resource outlines a five-step program that will help to dispel myths, overcome fears, and lead to grant-seeking success. Using the suggestions outlined in Demystifying Grant Seeking fundraisers will: * Learn about their organizations, communities, and funders * Match requests to funders * Invite funders to invest in their organizations * Follow up both internally with funders * Evaluate results, methods, and opportunities "At last! A practical, hands-on--and most importantly, realistic--guide to the entire grantsmanship process. Unlike so many how-to guidebooks which promise what they cannot deliver, while propagating the myth that successful grants require nothing more than a 'winning proposal, ' Demystifying Grant Seeking correctly places the proposal in its proper context alongside the 'other 90 percent of the process' that funders truly consider. As a former foundation program officer, I heartily recommend Demystifying Grant Seeking!" --Marilyn L. Gross, president, Educational Funding Strategies, Ltd., and publisher, THE INTERNET INSIDER--for Grantseekers & Fundraisers
