## What you are buying

A **client engagement proposal** workflow: discovery questionnaire, scope options, assumptions, timeline blanks, kickoff checklist, and email cover note. Pricing fields are blank for **your** rates.

## What this is not

- Not a guarantee of funding, scores, or "win rates."
- Not a completed grant application for a named funder.
- Not legal, tax, or lobbying advice.
- Not permission to invent past awards or client results.

## Discovery questionnaire (send before drafting fees)

| Question | Client answer |
|---|---|
| Org legal name + EIN (if they share) |  |
| Mission in one sentence |  |
| Programs that need funding this cycle |  |
| Target funders **they** already identified (names only — you research later) |  |
| Deadline(s) they care about |  |
| Who signs off on narrative / budget |  |
| Existing boilerplate (yes/no + where) |  |
| Budget owner for **your** fees |  |
| Prior grant writer? What worked / failed |  |
| Compliance constraints they already know |  |

## Engagement proposal outline

1. **Situation** — their words, not hype  
2. **Proposed work** — what you will deliver  
3. **Scope options** — three blanks for your fees  
4. **Assumptions** — what must be true  
5. **Timeline** — milestones with dates they confirm  
6. **Client responsibilities** — docs, reviews, sign-off  
7. **Out of scope** — explicit  
8. **Fees and payment** — your numbers  
9. **Next step** — signature / kickoff call  

### Scope option table (you fill $)

| Option | Includes | Fee (you) | Timeline |
|---|---|---|---|
| A — Single narrative + budget support | One application package draft | $____ | ____ |
| B — Package + two revisions | A + two revision rounds | $____ | ____ |
| C — Retainer cycle | Up to N applications / quarter | $____ / mo | ____ |

State clearly: **Funding outcomes are not included in any option.**

### Assumptions (edit)

- Client provides financials and program data on time.
- You do not submit without their written approval of final text.
- Funder portals and accounts stay in the client's name.
- No invented metrics or unverified partner letters.

### Out of scope (default)

- Lobbying or political activity advice
- Audit or bookkeeping
- Guaranteeing scores or awards
- Creating fake letters of support

## Cover email

```
Subject: Grant writing engagement proposal — {{org}}

{{name}} — attached is a scoped proposal based on our call / your questionnaire.
Three options with fees and timelines. Important: this engagement covers writing and process support; it does not guarantee any funder will award money.
Reply with questions or which option you want; then we book kickoff.
```

## Kickoff checklist

- [ ] Signed proposal or SOW
- [ ] Deposit received (your policy)
- [ ] Shared drive / folder access
- [ ] Style voice samples
- [ ] Budget owner introduced
- [ ] Funder list from **client** (not scraped cold lists from you)
- [ ] Review SLA agreed (e.g. 3 business days)

## Red flags — pause and clarify

- Client asks you to invent outcomes or inflate numbers
- "We always win" marketing they want you to put in the narrative without evidence
- Deadline already passed for a funder they insist on
- They refuse to review before submit

## Honest limits

Your reputation is the product. This pack helps you scope cleanly; it does not raise award probability by a claimed percentage.

## License

Use with your clients. Do not resell. Do not market this pack as a "funded grant" kit.
