Structure That Strengthens Mission
We provide strategic support that meets your nonprofit where it is and helps you move forward with clarity. Our services are designed for small to mid-sized organizations navigating growth, limited capacity, or times of transition. Every offering is built to free up your time, strengthen your systems, and align your mission with your day-to-day operations.
How We Price Our Work
We know that no two nonprofits are the same and neither are their needs. That’s why our pricing is flexible and tailored to the scope of work and support level that makes sense for you.
Here’s how it works:
Tiered Packages for organizations ready for clear deliverables with the option to choose the depth of support that fits your stage of growth
Custom Engagements tailored to your unique goals, timelines, and internal capacity
Hourly or Project-Based Support for teams that need focused help with specific tasks or short-term priorities
This structure allows you to start where you are and build toward the level of partnership that makes sense for your team.
Funding Systems That Last
Grant Writing and Compliance
We see grant writing as more than chasing deadlines. It is about building systems, stories, and structures that strengthen your organization long after the submission is sent.
We help you move beyond the scramble with services that meet you where you are, whether you are preparing your first application or managing a full pipeline.
Our Approach
We combine strategy, structure, and storytelling to create proposals that are funder-ready and mission-aligned.
Our work focuses on clarity, clear data, clear outcomes, clear communication. Because clarity is what builds trust, both internally and with funders.
Every engagement centers three outcomes:
Confidence: Your team understands what is being submitted and why.
Capacity: Each project leaves you stronger, not more dependent.
Compliance: Systems are in place to keep funder expectations on track.
Service Models
Hourly Support
Best for organizations building grant capacity
If you are newer to grants or still establishing a strong track record, hourly support offers flexibility. We help you refine your materials, assess fit, and prepare to compete for funding.
What we do:
Proposal editing and compliance checks
Attachment preparation (budgets, board lists, logic models)
Strategic guidance on readiness
Light research to confirm eligibility
Capacity-building for emerging programs
Why it works: You pay only for the time you need while building a strong foundation for future success.
Per-Grant Packages
Best for ready-to-go opportunities
When you already have an opportunity in hand, per-grant pricing gives you a clear scope, timeline, and deliverable.
What we do:
Full proposal writing from start to finish
Funder vetting and alignment confirmation
Coordination and clarifying questions
One round of revisions based on feedback
Submission-ready deliverable
Why it works: You receive a polished, submission-ready proposal with predictable cost and process clarity.
Grant Prospecting
For organizations that need a stronger pipeline
If you know you want to pursue grants but are unsure where to start, or if your funding base needs diversification, this package gives you focus and direction.
What we do:
Identify 8–10 aligned funding opportunities
Summarize requirements and deadlines
Provide fit notes explaining why each funder is a good match
Deliver everything in an organized, easy-to-use reference format
Why it works: You save time and energy while knowing your team is targeting the right funders for the right reasons.
Retainer Partnership
Best for managing a full grant pipeline
For organizations with ongoing opportunities, a retainer provides continuous partnership across research, writing, and reporting.
What we do:
Proactive grant research and tracking
Multiple submissions each month (as scoped)
Funder communication and relationship management
Reporting and compliance support
Grant calendar setup and portfolio planning
Why it works: You gain full coverage of your grant pipeline with no missed deadlines, no lost opportunities, and no last-minute stress.
Choosing the Right Option
Start with Hourly if: you are new to grants, testing the strategy, or need expert review on specific pieces.
Move to Per-Grant when: you have identified opportunities and want clear deliverables with budget certainty.
Add Grant Prospecting when: you are building or expanding your funder network and need a strong pipeline.
Consider a Retainer if: grants are a key funding stream and you need proactive, full-cycle support.
We build funding systems that last.
Whether you need help with one proposal or long-term strategy, EmpowerTactics helps you build clarity, capacity, and confidence across every part of your grant process.
Operational Clarity & Alignment
Systems & Operations
We help you turn your values into systems that work, from policies and manuals to how decisions are made each day. When processes are clear, collaboration feels lighter, accountability grows, and burnout becomes less likely.
Our work meets you where you are. Whether you need a defined project to strengthen your foundation or embedded partnership to stabilize operations, we help teams move from reacting to leading with intention.
For organizations stretched thin or facing time-sensitive needs, our Express Services offer flat-rate, done-for-you options such as grant reviews, policy refreshes, and manual organization. They create quick wins that free capacity and rebuild confidence.
Clarity is not extra. It is what allows your mission, your people, and your systems to thrive.
-
Whether you need a one-time roadmap or a full organizational strategy, we facilitate planning processes that prioritize clarity, collaboration, and alignment. We host retreats, conduct SWOT analyses, define priorities, and co-create plans that are actionable and measurable. Follow-up support ensures your plan doesn’t sit on a shelf, it guides your work.
-
Leadership transitions are inevitable. We help organizations prepare before it becomes urgent. Our approach includes identifying mission-critical roles, creating knowledge preservation systems, mapping out governance responsibilities, and building contingency plans for the unexpected. We provide implementation support and review progress six months out.
-
Great programming depends on operational strength. We assess existing systems and workflows to identify inefficiencies, then help you implement tools, policies, and frameworks that support long-term effectiveness. We specialize in supporting teams where program staff wear multiple hats and need systems that work for real-life capacity.
Express Services
Grant Proposal Review
Before you hit submit, let’s make sure your proposal is clear, focused, and funder-ready. This service includes a full edit with tracked changes, a written feedback memo with actionable recommendations, and a thirty-minute consultation to talk through any questions.
Policy Refresh
Unclear or outdated policies can slow your team down and create risk. This service helps you clean up internal documents with updated formatting, policy edits, and a clear recommendation memo. No legal jargon, just clarity and consistency that works.
Manual Builder
If your operations manual, employee handbook, or SOPs are scattered across folders or still living in your head, this service brings them together into one clean and usable document. We turn your existing materials into a practical tool your team can rely on.
Leadership Continuity & Strategy
Fractional and Interim Leadership
Leadership transitions and capacity gaps are part of every organization’s growth. The challenge is keeping operations, programs, and people aligned while navigating the change. EmpowerTactics provides interim and fractional leadership that supports both stability and progress, ensuring momentum never gets lost in transition.
Our approach combines hands-on support with strategic clarity. We embed into your existing structure, assess what’s needed most, and strengthen internal systems so the organization can move forward with confidence.
We offer fractional and interim roles across key areas of leadership:
Executive Director (Interim): Maintains strategic oversight, team cohesion, and stakeholder trust during leadership transitions.
Director of Operations: Brings structure to daily workflows, financial systems, and organizational processes.
Director of Programs: Aligns program strategy with impact goals and strengthens internal coordination.
Strategy Advisor: Supports executive leaders and boards through decision-making, strategic alignment, and systems-level problem-solving.
Each role is designed to meet the specific moment your organization is in, whether you need temporary stability, ongoing guidance, or targeted structure to strengthen internal leadership capacity.
Let’s strengthen what keeps your mission running.
