How Grants Work

COVID-19 grants provide some valuable insight for entrepreneurs.

You see, grants are about what the government wants – not what you want. As readers of 100 Golden Grant Rules know, the government creates grants to solve their problems, fulfil their promises or solve their problems.

For astute entrepreneurs (and even non-profit executive directors) who educate themselves on how governments work, you can begin to position your story wisely.

In the video below, I show you how grants work using a COVID-19 grant. Please subscribe to my channel if you want more grant tips.

Stay creative!

Free Grant Database Update

We’ve made more “updates” to the grant database. Now you can search “music” or “women” in the search engine – and it works! And here I thought what Google did was super easy.

By the way, I’m building an amazing feature into the database so stay tuned. I know what I’m about to say sounds obnoxious (I had to look up how to spell that word), but I believe this database feature will create the most important business webpage in Alberta. I’m serious. I’m almost there. Keep praying I don’t give up!!!

Special Request

One of the reasons that I’m putting all the grants online for free is that it furthers my mission: to help businesses and governments trust each other more.

To do this, I’m looking to get my grant database to more people.

If your audience looks for grants, you have my permission to link my grant database on your website. For example, Calgary Economic Development has done so. Here is the database URL: https://albertabusinessgrants.ca/finding-grants/

Thanks for spreading the word! The more people that use it, the more motivated I am to keep it going!
