Your external bid-writing desk
Outsourced bid writing for teams that cannot keep absorbing it.
Move recurring application work out of overloaded inboxes and into one managed, confidential workspace with Matt.
£1,195 per month · no VAT · rolling monthly
Unlimited suitable requests in one queue. One active request at a time. Personally delivered by Matt Simmonds.
The funding work is rarely one neat bid
When bid writing belongs to everybody, it often belongs to nobody until the deadline becomes urgent. Information arrives in fragments and senior time is lost stitching it together.
One person, one queue and one monthly price
Each request gets a tailored route: questions, evidence check, draft, consolidated feedback and up to two reasonable revision rounds. Everyone can see what is active and what is waiting.
Requests you can put in the queue
- Create a new application from scratch
- Rewrite a rough internal draft
- Adapt an existing case for a new funder
- Prepare final answers after feedback
You explain what you need in ordinary language. Matt reviews it, sends only the relevant questions and confirms when the request is ready. Your chosen ready priority becomes active; after review and up to two reasonable revision rounds, the next ready request begins.
Who this is for
Small teams with regular applications, usable project information and an internal person who can approve the work.
All applications, budgets, strategy, documents and conversations are confidential. Funding outcomes are never guaranteed and there is no success fee.
£1,195 rolling monthly
- Pay one month upfront
- Continue automatically month to month
- Cancel before the next payment
- Required onboarding included with no setup fee
- One 30-minute planning call each month
Questions about this monthly service
What if we only need one urgent bid?
A one-off bid-writing service is usually clearer. Unlimited is designed for an ongoing list, not a single emergency application.
What does unlimited mean?
You can add as many suitable fundraising requests as you need to one queue. Matt works on one ready priority at a time. It does not mean unlimited simultaneous work, unlimited hours or a guaranteed number of completed applications.
Who does the work?
Matt Simmonds personally reviews, researches, writes and delivers the work. The founding service is not handed to an anonymous pool of writers.
How does the monthly agreement work?
The service costs £1,195, paid upfront for one month at a time. It renews monthly and you can cancel before the next payment. There is no setup fee and no refund once a paid month has started.
