PRLog (Press Release) - May 22, 2008 -
James De Havilland, author of The Key to the Secret, The Temple of the 42 Steps, and the soon to be released Under the Blood Red Sun, is a veteran Winning Grant Proposal Writer, and former administrator, supervisor, and curriculum writer  of Educational and Occupational Training Programs.  
So, right off the bat, he tells you the bottom line.  The "Secret" is not in the grant proposal.  The "SECRET" is the "PROPOSAL INTENT"!   To make the point more clear, you need money for yourself or to do your job. Chances are that if you had a little more money, you'd be able to help more people and do your work better. That's where Federal grants come into play. If you run an organization to help those in need, you may be eligible to get Federal money through grant programs. However, in order to get the funding your organization needs, you must go to the right person or agency that can give you what you want. Thus, the right approach—how to get there serves as the premise, root, idea, concept, focus, driving force, strategy, game plan, or theme that will best lead you to your objective. James De Havilland stresses you must know what you want, know who can give it to you, and know how to get there. Remember the three K's. Katch 'em, Keep 'em, Konvince 'em. How do you katch 'em? You must allure, entice, tempt, tantalize, fascinate, captivate, attract, and make them remember. The subject must contain the famous formula: what, who, where, when, why, and how!

Over use of words like "assessing" "reviewing" prioritizing" "planning" "strategizing" trap all people and organizations and companies into a false set of accomplishment. If you need money for your organization, you must have fast, frequent, filter-less communication targeting priorities because it implements and fuels action and mobilizes qualified people. Your Organization must provide a clear cut, simple, direct, and innovative implementation approach toward achieving objectives to accomplish goals ensuring program success. Then, you ask for it...".the government funding"!

That's it! The call to arms, the request, the command, the prescription, the contract, the bottom line, the close, they all add up to "ask for it"! He who don't ask, don't get! Don't foreclose opportunity! A truly effective Grant Proposal is more than words and a close ..."Your words must paint a picture the funding agency will remember"!
Imagery, clarity, personalizing, and emotional appeal make the funding agency more receptive to your grant proposal! Your Grant Proposal puts the "Spotlight on You"! The first impression of your organization is the most lasting, if it's not a good impression, you may have lost an opportunity that may never happen again. The same goes if you want money for yourself.  The "Spotlight" is on you!  Remember, the "SECRET" is not in the GRANT PROPOSAL", its' in the "PROPOSAL  INTENT".  WHY?  Because the proposal intent is the 60 second message that allures, entices, tempts, tantalizes, fascinates', captivates', attracts', and makes' them remember.  The "Right Proposal Intent" unlocks and swings open the gateway to the world of "success"   The "Proposal Intent" gives you the go-ahead to send the Grant Proposal!   FREE INFO!
