Let me tell you about one of the most intimidating things I ever faced as an entrepreneur.
A grant application.
The blank page. The formal language. The sections asking me to describe
my "organizational capacity" and "measurable outcomes" β
using words that felt like they were written for someone with a PhD
and a full development team.
I am neither of those things.
And I know I am not alone.
There are billions of dollars in grant funding available every year
for small businesses, entrepreneurs, and community organizations.
And a significant portion of it goes unclaimed β
not because the people who need it do not qualify,
but because the application process feels impossible to navigate alone.
That is a resource gap.
And AI can help close it.
Here is where to start:
Open Claude or ChatGPT and paste this prompt:
Read the list it returns.
Pick one that fits.
Then paste this second prompt:
Write in a clear, professional tone that is warm and specific."
That is not cheating.
That is using the tools available to you.
The large organizations have grant writers on staff.
Now you have one too.

I will send you a more detailed prompt sequence to get started. π
