Tips for compiling your Accountability Report
At an hourly rate of $95.00 +GST, it will take seven hours of my time to compile and submit your first application. this includes all the background work of sourcing your potential funders creating documents, obtaining information, and quotes etc. Subsequent applications will not require so much of my time as we use your first application as a template and change the content to relate to what you are now applying for funding for. The second application is usually six hours, the next two are five hours, down to a minimum of three hours. It doesn’t matter how much you are applying for, it is my time and expertise that you are paying for.
My Guarantee:
If your application is unsuccessful ‘due to insufficient funds’, my time to resubmit your application to the same funder, for the same purpose, in the *next funding round, will be FREE of charge.
* Must be within 2 months of submitting your first application. Only one re-submission per
application applies.
Avoid common pitfalls that may mean your application is not even considered
