Financing
Multisport Concepts has forged a relationship with “Aussie” mortgage brokers. Aussie has an number of financiers that understand the product range we offer and are prepared to assess clients who may wish to finance their court or those little extras. Multisport Concepts offers this as a free service and does not receive any compensation from Aussie.
Grants – a science
Multisport Concepts has a close working relationship with an outstanding grant writer. This company has been extremely successful in gaining grants for sporting clubs etc. Each and every year we see very worthy clubs and other organisations disappointed when their applications for grants fail. Grants are complex and ever changing in their structure – why risk failure? Talk with us first and allow us design the project with the objective of maximising your possibility of gaining one of the limited number of grants available.
We would urge clubs etc to imagine themselves in the position of having to choose a handful of grants from the hundreds of applications that are lodged. How do you separate the best few grants? How can your club become one of those best few? It is that level of detail and refinement that a professional grant writer can impart.
Grant writers either work on a fee for service basis or on a contingency basis. Call us and we will guide you through the benefits of each option.
Importance of Planning
The following wise words come from our expert grant writer and are critically important for all non-profit organisations.
I know I harp on and on about the need for planning when it comes to a non profit organisation or business chasing funding or tender opportunities. Indeed planning is vital, not just in effectively running the organisation or business but it is vital when it comes to grants and tenders. However I still don’t feel many of our readers are really placing much of an emphasis on planning and I continue to be amazed at the LACK of planning when it comes to significant projects.
This has been reinforced recently when two funding programs which had substantial funding available were advertised and we were swamped with requests for help. One program was a school funding program while the other program was sport and rec based but both programs could provide hundreds of thousands of dollars for each project which succeeded in winning funding, hence significant school and sport and rec infrastructure projects could be funded through these programs.
As mentioned in both cases we were swamped with requests for assistance. However the sad reality in most cases was that the school or sporting club, while they had a fantastic project in mind – it was just that – an idea in their mind!
They had not progressed the idea at all and had not undertaken any real planning, nor had they undertaken community consultation, completed any significant research required to support and prove the case, started any required planning approvals with the local council etc etc.
The harsh facts are that without planning most submissions for any significant amounts of money will simply fail.
With all our clients including the schools we work with, non profit organisations and sporting clubs planning is the key to our success. In many instances when we believe significant funding programs will open in future we start work on the planning, research and indeed the preparation of the submission months in advance – sometimes we start work on projects some 6 to 9 months PRIOR to when we believe the funding program will open. This is why we are so successful in winning our clients funding or preparing winning tenders – preparation is the key. I again can’t stress strongly enough – if your organisation, business, school or sporting club is serious about chasing funding or tenders start NOW. The massive successes we have with our clients clearly demonstrates that planning realises success the failure to plan realises just that – failure. Contact us now if your organisation needs any funding at all – we can get you the funding you so desperately need!
Please call Multisport Concepts and allow us and our grant expert to tailor your proposal for the best possible chances of success – don’t wait until the last minute. We see far too many well deserving groups fail to secure grants year after year because of poor quality submissions, get expert help and stand the best possible chance.
