Grant Proposal Package
Craft winning proposals with expert guidance. Get end-to-end support for a single grant proposal — from sharpening your research question and assessing feasibility to revising your draft and polishing the final submission.
This package is for scholars who want both detailed written feedback and a personal conversation about their proposal, with support while they revise — rather than a standalone proofread or a single coaching session.
For: Scholars preparing a competitive grant application who want developmental feedback, coaching, revision support and a final line edit on one proposal. An application-based access option is available for early-career scholars with limited liquidity.
What’s included
1. Developmental feedback
First round of edits: detailed, in-document feedback on your proposal’s research question, clarity, feasibility, timetable, finances and more.
2. One-to-one coaching call
Discuss your proposal’s progress, address open questions and refine your approach in a tailored session.
3. Email & WhatsApp support
Timely support during the revision stage to tackle challenges and fine-tune your proposal.
4. Line edit
Second round of edits: polish your proposal so it is professional, persuasive and submission-ready.

Included bonuses — at no extra cost
These are not add-ons. They are here to protect your time, your energy and your next steps.
