Hot Take: You're Prematurely Disqualifying Yourself
No more talking yourself out of funding meant for you.
Learn how to look at any grant, fellowship, residency, or pitch competition, and know within minutes whether it's worth your time. Includes replay and handouts.
Not every funder is going to say ‘podcaster’ or ‘journalist’ or ‘musician’ in their guidelines. But that doesn’t mean you should make assumptions and move on.
Funders aren’t always looking for a specific title. But they know the kind of impact and specific gap they’re trying to fill.
Part of picking the right grants to pursue is knowing how to read between the lines, and opting in, even if a funder doesn’t mention your role or craft by name.
That’s exactly what I’m teaching in a live workshop this week.
Here’s what we’ll cover in 1 hour:
Where to look beyond the grant announcement to understand what funders prioritize
How to find past and present public applications so you can see what winning looks like
How to position yourself when your craft isn’t explicitly named in the guidelines
Why creators who apply strategically win more often than you’d think
Who’s this class for?
This 1-hour virtual workshop is for creatives, artists, and small business owners who are ready to build a real methodology for choosing the right grants to pursue every time.
There are (2) dates to choose from. Replay and handouts included.
