Upcoming Help For The Grantster

The people at RITE solutions have been busy developing new services they plan to offer to the public this July. I can't give detail information at this time, but what I will say is that this new service line will help many new comers to the grant industry.

One of RITE Solutions major objective is to help people in Florida get real information on how to better position themselves for funding to help our communities. What we have found is there is much confusion about the grant industry, especially on getting started. The beginners really don’t know what the process is to get money for themselves or their organizations. That said one of the programs that’s been developed is our G.E.T. seminar.

Our Grant Essentials Training is a seminar designed specifically to help the beginner get started. Many have heard advertisements about FREE Money and how they are missing out on their fair share. What they quickly discover is applying for funding is no small task and that there are many things to be considered. This is where our G.E.T. the money seminar really helps those just starting out and some that had success in understanding the process of getting grant money.

Power 56 is another seminar offered that really streamlines getting into the grant industry. Those who need to get up to speed fast use it. Its bulleted style targets the must do or must have for grant money success. This 56-minute lecture trims the fat and provides away to quickly understand what is needed and where one is in the grant process.

RITE Solutions has also been working on some software to help the beginner get what they need to start and compete for grant money. Rumor has it this software maybe a freebie. We'll keep our fingers cross on that one. Also, I've heard video and audio blogs are being discussed. No one knows how these new services will be rolled out but late July thing should get very exciting.

This Week Comments

We had serveral call about the FREE Money in grants. While there is money for all type of real world concerns, there is NO FREE MONEY. You have to qualify, and you have to have a real verifiable plan for how the money will be used. Go to this site www.grants.gov , it will show you lots of programs that can be funded with grants. Then look at how you qualify to receive grant money.
