How Grant Frog Works
Learn how Grant Frog works and the best way to use Grant Frog
Grant Frog brings all of your grant proposals, grant reports, funders, clients, and tasks together in one place.
You may be used to using single or multiple spreadsheets or even a task management system to track your grant proposals, funders, and clients.
With spreadsheets, it can be difficult to jump between all of your information and find what's most important. You're funders aren't all in one place and you can't get a full overview of what you've requested and from whom.
With a task management system, you're only tracking your to-do list, not a holistic view of all Grant Proposals, Funders, and Clients connected together.
With Grant Frog, everything is connected - your grant proposals to funders and clients, your tasks to grant proposals, your grant reports to a grant proposal, and more.
You'll use the Dashboard each day or week to get a quick snapshot of what grant proposals are due soon, tasks that need your attention, and upcoming grant reports.
Everything is Connected
In Grant Frog, everything is connected to one another.
Example: Your Grant Proposals are connected to a Funder. On your Grant Proposal page, you can see the connected or linked Funder.
Grant Proposal record linked to Funder
On the Funder record, you can see all Grant Proposals related to that Funder. This makes it easy to see how many proposals you've sent to the Funder, the amount, and total proposals pending response.
Funder record (edited for clarity)
Each time you create a new Grant Proposal, you will choose a Funder from your Funder list or create a new Funder if you've never sent a proposal to them before.
Once you create a Funder record, you'll only have to do it once! Now, every time you create a Grant Proposal, you'll just choose that Funder.
You won't create a new Funder record each time if that Funder is already in your Funder list. In a spreadsheet, you have to write out the Funder every time.
Adding Your Grant Information
As you start planning your grants calendar, you can start entering it into Grant Frog.
