Do your weekend plans include writing an applicati

Do your weekend plans include writing an application for our Round 4 Business Grants?

Here are our top 5 tips to a great grant application

1. Start the application process as early possible and give yourself plenty of time to collate the required information and write a compelling application. Double check that you have provided all of the required documentation before submitting your application.

2. Missed the free grant writing workshop? Contact us at business@banyule.vic.gov.au for a copy of the recorded session.

3. Include market research to demonstrate the need of your project, illustrate your target market and viability of your project.

4. Contact the Economic Development Team via email business@banyule.vic.gov.au if unsure of your eligibility or an application question. Seek guidance on how the grant is acquitted and evaluated.

5. Consider applying for the smaller grant. The application requirements for the Business Coaching and Development grants are less than the Business Support Grant. If you don't have the time to complete a Business Support Grant application, consider whether a Coaching and Development grant can be used by your business instead.
