New Book Describes How to Get Free Grants to Start a Small Business or Pursue Other Dreams

Government grants provide free money to start and expand small businesses. According to the federal government’s Small Business Administration (SBA), most small businesses fail within the first five years. One of the most common reasons is a lack of adequate funding.
Despite this fact, federal and state governments award billions of dollars in grant money each year to individuals from all walks of life to start their own business.
The Grant Authority is written to help entrepreneurs and business owners locate and apply for grants from the government and other, non-government sources.
Its author, Ron Wainrib, Esq., is an attorney and writer with decades of experience as a consultant to small businesses. He has taught entrepreneurs who want to start their own business the pros and cons of running and financing a new business, and keys to obtaining small business funding.
His book offers resources, a comprehensive glossary, and an extensive collection of forms and other important documents in its Appendix on a free CD that comes with it.
Unlike many books that just offer lists of the million of dollars of grants available to start or expand your business, The Grant Authority teaches you where to find these grants, how to apply for them with a well-written grant proposal, and what to do after you submit your proposal.
It features real-life success stories of people who launched their businesses with the help of government grants. “You’d be amazed at the businesses that began in someone’s garage or home and grew to important contributors to our national defense, war against terror, and war for energy independence” Wainrib says.
He shows how major companies, including Cobasys, FuelCell, ArmorWorks and Siga, have used government grants to fund their research and development work for energy conservation, military armor and smallpox vaccines, to protect the nation’s safety and security.
The book includes checklists, tips and web site photos to simplify the complex grants process, teach you how to do effective research, and write well-written grant proposals to gain a winning edge in the competitive world of grants.
