How To Find Government Small Business Grants

Why Grants?

Federal and State governments are actively giving away billions of dollars each year in grants, many of which are aimed at businesses.


How Do You Get A Grant?

Begin by checking to see what government small business grants are available. Your local government's website is a good place to start. Also, the federal government has websites you will want to check into.

Estimate your needs. (You probably want to get an accountant to help you with this.)

Find an attorney who is familiar with the grant application process to help you.

Read the grant application carefully, and make a list of all of the supplemental materials you will need.

If you do not view yourself as a good writer, hire someone to write the grant for you.

Write a very detailed business plan. Get someone who is familiar with business start ups to review your plan.


Who Is Eligible For A Grant?

Basically, anyone can get a government small business grant. If you are a member of a minority or female, or both, this could certainly be a plus.
