Are You Grant Ready?

At Revenue Creatures, we know that small tourism businesses live and breathe opportunity—and grants are one of the most powerful tools available to help you grow, diversify, and innovate. But here’s the thing: the best grants often come with short lead times.

Whether it’s a state or federal government initiative, it’s not uncommon to have 8-12 weeks to turn around a full grant application. And that’s not a lot of time when you need to:

• Design a clear and compelling project

• Gather quotes and accurate costings

• Secure letters of support from key stakeholders

• Liaise with council or government bodies

While many grants don’t require formal council approval upfront, having a quiet conversation with your local liaison early can help you "test the water" and increase your chances of success.

The Reality: You Need to Be Grant Ready

That means thinking ahead. Right now.

Start dusting off those dream project ideas sitting on your wishlist. Delve deeper into the ones with real potential. Look into community need, regional impact, and tourism benefits—because most successful grant applications demonstrate not just business benefit, but broader economic, environmental, or social impact.

Also keep in mind: sustainability and accessibility are no longer optional checkboxes. Most modern grants will expect your project to support these values.
