How We Make Money (Yes, Really)

We Don't Get Paid Unless You Get Paid

Granta finds the grants, writes the applications, and files them for you — for free. If nothing is awarded, we've earned nothing and you owe nothing. If a grant comes through, we take 10% of that award. No subscription, no separate fee.

Why We'd Only Chase Grants You Can Actually Win

Most grant consultants get paid whether or not you win — a flat fee upfront, a monthly subscription, a per-application charge. That means their incentive is to get you to apply, not to get you funded.

Granta doesn't have that option. We make 10% of an award — and only an award. If we spend our time filing applications you're unlikely to win, we make nothing for the effort. So the incentive runs the other way: we're motivated to be selective, to file where you have a real shot, and to stay on top of deadlines and follow-ups — because a stalled application is money we don't get either.

A lead-gen scam gets paid the moment you sign up. We get paid the moment you do.

We Know Where the Money Is

Most small business owners don't have time to sort through hundreds of grant programs. We already have.

Federal Programs

SBA grants, USDA rural development funds, HUD community programs, DOE efficiency incentives — most owners have never heard of them. We have.

State & Local Funding

Every state runs programs that go untouched every year. We match your business to what's available in your area, not just what's nationally publicized.

Private & Industry Grants

Home Depot Foundation, trade association funds, minority business development grants — these rarely get advertised. We monitor them continuously.

You Don't Touch a Single Application

What Granta handles

Finding programs you're eligible for
Verifying eligibility requirements
Writing the application narrative

The Only Thing We're Asking For Is 3 Minutes

You've probably been burned by a consultant, a franchise, an "agency" before. This one's different in one specific way: we don't invoice until you've already been paid. Between jobs, you don't have hours to spend chasing grant paperwork — so spend three minutes telling us about your business, and we'll tell you what's actually there. If we don't find anything, you'll hear that too — for free.

Common Questions

We take 10% of the total amount in the grant award letter. If you're approved for $10,000, we invoice you for $1,000 after funds arrive. If you don't get a grant you owe us nothing — not a dollar.

Grant timelines vary by program. Most applications take 4–8 weeks to receive a decision. Some state programs move faster. We'll update you as we hear back — you won't be left wondering.

Almost nothing. We handle the research, the writing, and the filing. The one thing we can't do for you: send us records only you have — financials, a W-9, business licensing. If a program needs those, we'll ask you to upload them. That's the most you'll ever have to do.

It happens. If we can't find programs that match your business, we'll tell you — and you owe nothing. No surprises, no runaround.

Yes. The report costs nothing. Filing costs nothing. You only pay if we win you a grant, and only then — 10% of the award. That's the entire business model.

Federal small business programs (SBA, USDA, HUD), state economic development funds, private foundation grants, and certification-based funding (WOSB, VOSB, HUBZone, MBE). Home service businesses in particular have access to programs that go completely untouched every year.
