Description: You may need to restructure your grant writing business in 2025. Meaning three main things need to be re-evaluated: -Offers -Systems -Team There has been a lot going on with grants in the last month, and it’s clear that there will be changes in 2025. Does that mean all grant funding is gone or your clients will dry up? No. But you may need to get back to the heart of your business. Pivoting is a word you may be bringing back into your vocabulary this year. Knowing what service offers to keep, what to double down on, and what to let go is all vital to growing your revenue and serving your clients. As a grant writing CEO (yes, you’ve graduated from the thought you are ‘only’ a freelancer), you may even have a virtual assistant and/or subcontract grant writer or two on your team. You may be wondering if you need to restructure your team and offers in 2025 with everything that is happening with the new Administration. #1 - Restructure Your Grant Writing Offers If you have federal grant writing service offers (meaning you write federal grants), then you will want to work closely with your clients on how to adjust to all the changes. This might mean re-working your scope of work retainer and taking out a couple of grants and putting in Monthly Updates instead. #2 - Update Your Business Systems You need to create or update SOPs. Even if this year wasn’t full of new grant things, we recommend you do this every quarter! Look over SOPs and update any. See if you can add AI to support any functions. #3 - Examine Your Team and Reset Roles You may need to role reset some team members. Your virtual assistant may need fewer hours this year or you may assign them some hours to attend webinars on federal grant updates and send you notes. Your grant writers may need to be reporting on grant updates or working on doubling foundation grant outputs. But within everything, you need to make sure this aligns with your budget. Students inside the Grant Professional Mentorship have been addressing these needs to see how to adjust in 2025. Some are hiring virtual assistants to help with more admin duties so they can be in front of a lot of issues. Others are streamlining team members and paying for scope of work instead of just hourly. When you join the Grant Professional Mentorship, we will have a LIVE 3-Hour Business Reset Call to dig into your business. Tune in today to listen to this podcast.
