At GrantHelper, we follow a
proven 3-step process:

Discovery, Compose, Submit.

We call this our Winning Grants Process.

So, how do we do it?

Though each grant program is different, the keys to success stay the same. It all starts with having a strategy—and a reliable process.

GrantHelper’s Winning Grants Process has three steps: Discovery, Compose, Submit.

Ever spent time applying for a grant, only to find out that your business isn’t eligible? With our proven application process, you won’t have to worry about wasting time and resources. At GrantHelper, we only suggest grants that your business has a real chance of winning.

Our process ensures that nothing gets missed, and that your business case presents a compelling cause for investment. Here’s how each step works.

Step 1: Discovery

Whether you already have a grant in mind, or you’re totally new to the whole thing, the discovery step is where we get to know your business and determine our plan of action.

  • Finding and reviewing the most relevant grant opportunities for your business
  • Understanding your requirements and getting to know your business
  • Cost vs. benefit discussion of each grant opportunity
    Developing your business case
  • Ensuring your business meets all the eligibility criteria
  • Confirming your business has the resources to deliver the project

Step 2: Compose

Next, we gather all the important information we need and we get to work on writing your application responses. In this step, we’ll work with you to ensure that all the mandatory information is supplied, then use our writing skills to craft a clear, compelling application.

  • Compiling all necessary information including business & staff information
  • Writing detailed responses that meet all assessment criteria and include correct level of technical information
  • Compiling additional information, including business strategy, financial information, staff and supplier information
  • Developing your project plan, including a detailed budget
  • Determining your project timeline including all important milestones
  • Ensuring all questions are addressed fully, concisely, and clearly

Step 3: Submit

The final step is a thorough review of all your submission content. Missed details or poorly thought out responses can sink an application. We use this final step to ensure the necessary documentation is in place and all criteria have been met.

  • Identifying and fixing any areas of weakness in your application, e.g. unclear or irrelevant information
  • Question-by-question review to ensure the best possible responses have been written
  • Confirming all supporting documentation is in order
  • Conducting final checks and adding finishing touches to ensure your submission makes a compelling case and meets all criteria
  • Making your submission as early as possible—always before the deadline


Our Winning Grants Process is designed to take all the hard work and effort off your plate and place it in our expert hands.

What we need from you

As each grant submission requires an amount of mandatory information and supporting documentation, we will work with you to ensure all the necessary financial, technical and personnel information is provided. We will also check in with you to ensure we have the right direction when presenting your business case.

As we develop your grant application, we may request that you check over the submission content to ensure all details are correct and up-to-date.
