How to Offer Easy Ways to Apply for Grants
- 1). Offer grants through recognized organizations that allow for indexing and quick searches either through business directories or online services. Develop a website that provides easy access to the application process, comprehensive information concerning the types of grants you offer and convenient links to additional contact information for people who can handle any further questions.
- 2). Allow people to download the grant application so that it can be completed offline and uploaded at the applicant's convenience. Offer different software modes for documents to be downloaded, such as .pdf or .doc file downloads. Clearly state all grant deadlines for offline applications. Allow applicants to file grant paperwork online through simple but secure processes.
- 3). Create narrative tutorials for applicants. Illustrate which paperwork needs to be filed by the applicant and which will be filed by office personnel. Develop a step-by-step tutorial consisting of both verbal and graphical representations for easy understanding of the application process.
