    Businesses - Leisurely Dining Or Fast Food
    It occurred to me the other day, that so many people today liken their businesses to the way they eat - fast. Think about it. All over the web we are inundated with... make $1000's of dollars a day, make $10,000 a month, make a million by the end of the year. Everyone is looking for the magic formula or the magic

    Grow Wisconsin is a new network of grant writers in WI who exemplify that collaboration begets success while reminding us that no matter how your grant defines profit, all grant proposals should be outline how you will measure results.

    Only a year old, Grow Wisconsin, is a group of 18 grant writers, who have been working with businesses and non-profits to bring in thousands of dollars to the State of Wisconsin. In a field that is saturated with non-profit executives and employees, this group of grant writers is unique because most of them work for business firms and focus on for-profit grants. The majority of the funding opportunities that they pursue are SBIR (small business grants from the federal Small Business Administration) and Wisconsin Department of Commerce support for Wisconsin businesses seeking funding.

    Their for-profit position means that Grow Wisconsin grant writers must include a strong commercialization, or sales, plan in their proposals. They cannot just offer to build a product, they must also prove they can sell it. Non-profit grant writers can relate to this concept, as they try to prove that programs will not only meet an immediate need, but also build a sustainable solution to the larger problem.

    Grow Wisconsin meets at customer facilities around southern Wisconsin and while the networking has been valuable to the members of Grow Wisconsin, it will inevitably trickle down to benefit their clients.

    Brand Boring or Brand Buzz?
