Building Your Grant Writing Consulting Business I'm excited about some great new grant writing resources coming up in August! We'll be going through a series on building your grant writing career. This series is a sneak peek into the Fast Track to Grant Writer program where I walk you through these in detail. We talk about which ones would be best for you based on your situation and budget and then map out a custom plan for you. What's Your Biggest Grant Writing Challenge?

As we go through the series this month, I want to answer your questions. What’s your biggest challenge or frustration when it comes to grant writing? Email info@teresahuff.com or message me on LinkedIn. 

Let me know so I can make this series content useful for you!

How Do I Start as a Grant Writer?

One of the questions I hear most is, "Where do I start?" I advise my Fast Track to Grant Writer students to find the shortest distance from Point A to Point B. Take inventory of your skills, start with what you know, and make the gap as small as possible.
