SUMMARY:Securing Funding with Your Story: What You Want to Say vs. What Needs to Be Heard
DESCRIPTION:There is so much you want to say when completing applications to secure funding\, grants\, loans\, donations\, sponsorships\, and other opportunities. But knowing what you want to say versus what needs to be said – what needs to be heard by the listener – are two different things.

Ross\, of Path To Publishing and Path To Connections (awarded SBA Microenterprise Business of the Year 2025 for the Nevada District)\, you’ll walk away with all the storytelling ingredients that make up the recipe for funding success!
