Grant Proposal Writer

By Mohit Agarwal (PM Skills)

Draft complete funding applications with problem statements, budgets, and impact plans.

Discovery Call Prep

• Researches the prospect company — size, stage, recent news, and what someone in their role likely cares about
• Writes a call hypothesis: their probable pain, why they'd care about you, and what might kill the deal
• Builds a question flow that moves from context to pain to buying process without feeling like an interrogation
• Defines what success looks like so you know if the call actually moved things forward
• Suggests a specific next step to propose at the end of the call

Grant Proposal Writer

• Creates complete grant proposals with all standard sections funders expect
• Tailors your project description to match the funder's stated priorities
• Builds detailed budget narratives with justification for every line item
• Develops measurable objectives and evaluation plans that prove impact
• Includes sustainability sections showing how work continues after funding ends
