Grant Details
The Freed Fellowship Grant presents a monthly opportunity for passionate business owners in the US to elevate their ventures. Every month, a $500 grant is given to a business owner in the U.S. to enhance their current business operations. With no strings attached and no equity demands, the program is designed to invest in the existing businesses of eligible candidates and contribute to their prosperity.
The 5C Framework serves as the guiding compass in the selection process. The team meticulously examines the context of each business, seeking to understand why the market favors them. They delve into the content of the business, uncovering the compelling core narrative that sets it apart. Community engagement is considered, with a keen interest in whether the business owner has found or created a community. Chemistry involves discovering the unique touch of the business, while Commerce explores the intricacies of how it generates revenue.
Every applicant is provided with insightful feedback through their Freed score, a comprehensive evaluation based on the 5C Framework. The program's focus extends beyond merely giving; it's about guiding. Business owners can expect personalized recommendations crafted for their ventures to ignite growth.
But the journey doesn't conclude there—welcome to the Freed Studio, the virtual sanctuary for the next two months. It transcends a mere community; it's a vibrant space where ambitious business owners unite. Here, the team identifies and implements practices, processes, and systems vital for sustainable growth, serving as a launchpad to that sought-after first (or next) $1 million in revenue.
For grant recipients, the adventure doesn't stop. An enticing opportunity awaits—an additional end-of-year grant of $2,500. The team's commitment to the success of these businesses goes beyond mere delight; it's a pledge. Eligible candidates are encouraged to apply, thrive, and revel in their successes together with the Freed Fellowship Grant.
