This book provides the user with a system for pre-determining the
likelihood of grants success before investing time in proposal
preparation. The exhibits, tables and figures keep new and veteran
grantseekers focused on the process and on obtaining the critical
information they need to decide whether to complete a proposal. The
interactive exhibits that are downloadable provide the worksheets
users needs to win grants This book shows readers how and when to
use the research they gather on prospective grantors to increase
their chances of success. Instruction is provided on why and how to
gather information on past grantees, scoring systems, and
reviewers, and on how to make preproposal contact to dramatically
increase success rates. The deceptively simple techniques outlined
in the exhibits, and the use of the project planner to present an
orderly proposal in a timely manner, are worth the whole investment
in the book. Bauer does not start with how to write a grant, but
rather how proposal development fits the grantseeker's career plan,
and relates to the mission of his or her nonprofit, university,
college, department or program. The emphasis on the book is not on
money, but on creating a winning match between the grantor, the
grantee, and his or her institution/organization. The reader is
provided with strategies and techniques to create strong teams,
build productive consortia, and match grantseeking tasks to group
member skills. This is particularly relevant now given grantors'
growing interest in funding interdisciplinary and multiple site
projects and research that uses grant monies more efficiently.
Those readers that teach or coach grantseeking will also find
strategies in the book that are essential to creating success for
others in the grants process. As the hunt for grants gets more
competitive and hectic, the need for a system that uses time
effectively and provides organizational techniques and other
strategies for increasing grants success rates, is critical. The
step-by step process presented in the book plus the free
downloadable worksheets make the purchase of this book a very
cost-effective investment.
