Guided support

This programme is designed for organisations and proposal teams that already have a working draft and do not want generic advice, fragmented feedback, or superficial editing. Instead, they want close expert partnership, criteria-driven refinement, and a final proposal that communicates with far greater precision, credibility, and scoring strength.

The Experience

How the programme works

1
Initial Fit & Confidential Assessment

The process begins with a short intake and a complimentary 30-minute discovery call. You share your current draft, funding programme, call context, and submission timeline. We assess the maturity of the application, identify the most likely pressure points, and determine which mentorship tier is the right fit.

2
Criteria-Led Strategic Review

In the first session, the proposal is examined through the lens of evaluator logic and award criteria. We identify where the application is underperforming, where score potential is being lost, and where stronger framing, structure, and articulation will create the greatest lift.

3
Private Revision Cycle

Each session focuses on a defined block of the application. After each meeting, you receive written expert notes to guide revision. Your team updates the draft between sessions, and each subsequent session builds on a stronger version of the proposal.

4
Locked Final Closure (Enterprise)

Within the highest tier, the application moves into a final-stage evaluator-style close-out. This includes simulation scoring, final pressure-testing, a structured Revision Backlog, and Locked Final guidance to support a more confident submission decision.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you write the proposal for us?
No. This is a private mentorship and advisory service, not ghostwriting. We work closely with your team to elevate the proposal, strengthen evaluator confidence, and improve scoring potential — while your organisation remains fully involved in the drafting process.
Which tier is best for a mature draft?
If the proposal already exists and now requires criterion-by-criterion strengthening, PRO is typically the strongest fit. If the application is approaching submission and requires simulation scoring plus final-stage closure, ENTERPRISE is the preferred route.
Can we begin with BASIC and continue later?
Yes. BASIC often serves as an expert diagnostic stage. If deeper restructuring or final evaluator-style review is needed, the programme can continue into PRO or ENTERPRISE. Upgrades are possible by paying the package difference, with no loss of continuity.
Which EU programmes does this cover?
The programme is suitable for Erasmus+, CERV, Creative Europe, Horizon Europe, Interreg, and other competitive EU calls — provided a real draft already exists and the work primarily concerns quality improvement, evaluator alignment, and proposal closure.
How near to the deadline can we begin?
Shorter timelines can still be workable at BASIC level. PRO and ENTERPRISE create the greatest value when there is adequate time for revision between sessions. Earlier engagement allows for deeper improvement.
What is meant by Locked Final?
Locked Final refers to the point at which the proposal has passed through advanced revision, simulation-based scrutiny, and final-stage advisory checks, and is considered ready for submission with a high level of confidence.
Do you guarantee success?
No serious expert should guarantee funding success. What we provide is a rigorous, experienced, evaluator-oriented process that strengthens proposal quality, improves score potential, and reduces avoidable weaknesses before submission.
🎯

Begin with a confidential discovery call.

If your team already has a draft and wants to refine it with greater precision, stronger judgement, and more strategic confidence — this programme offers a private route to that outcome. Choose the tier that matches your stage, or begin with a discovery call.
