**How to Win Grants demonstrates a three-stage grant development model distilled
into 101 actionable strategies. **

In stage one, “Prepare,” grantseekers begin by assessing their personal and agency
fundability and improving their positioning for grants, learning shortcuts to planning
successful grant projects and finding out how to locate the most likely sources 
of grant funding. This section also dispels widespread myths about grantseeking 
and identifies unproductive grantseeking behaviors to avoid.

In stage two, “Persuade,” grantseekers learn how to convince private and public 
grant makers that their project deserves funding by adapting their project plan 
to the specific needs of each funder. Grantseekers learn how to engage the funder’s
interest and make the most compelling case for their project.

In stage three, “Perform,” grantseekers learn the most important ways to continue
attracting grant funding for the long-term.
