"The Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint program is a fan favorite for New Jersey nonprofits! Organizations love this opportunity to learn grant proposal writing from a veteran grantmaker, Maryn Boess. They also tell us it's such an added bonus to train three on their team for one low price and that Maryn is so generous with her expertise and her time."

Susan Merrill O’Connor

Director of Communications 

Center for Nonprofits (NJ)

Hi, this is Maryn Boess - founder and chief magic-maker at GrantsMagic U! I've been in the grants world for over 35 years - including since 2006 as a grantmaker myself. Since 2001 my passion has been to translate what I know about successful grantseeking into trainings that are both actionable and inspiring. 

In October 2015, we launched GrantsMagic U, an online virtual "academy" that makes these trainings accessible - and affordable! - for anyone, anywhere, any time.  The GrantsMagic U student body now includes well over 6,000 people representing nonprofits of all shapes and sizes from all 50 states, DC, Puerto Rico, Guam, and - at last count - at least 28 other countries. Whew!

You can visit GrantsMagic U's website and see our current curriculum here.   

Our affiliate program is designed with one goal in mind: To make it easy for nonprofit membership associations like yours to deliver the great grants training your nonprofits want and need - and to support your member service goals.

Please get in touch! I'd love to talk with you about your members' training needs and how GrantsMagic U can help you meet them.

Most of our courses are short-form video-based trainings that people can sign up for and take any time.

Our signature course is different. This on-demand course is called The Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint: Your Step-by-Step Roadmap for Crafting an A+ Proposal - Every Time. This course runs about 20 hours total video-viewing time and is released in 8 video-based modules. Beginning in 2022, we have moved to an evergreen open-enrollment model, in which students enroll any time, start whenever they want to, and move through the pre-recorded materials entirely at their own pace. 

• Because of our open-enrollment model, our nonprofit membership association partners (Affiliates) are free to develop and launch their own promotions and campaigns around the Blueprint at any time, on their own schedule - whenever it best fits their own calendar.

• As an Affiliate, your role is to get the word out to the nonprofits you serve. 
  

• GrantsMagic U's job is to take care of absolutely everything else.  That includes developing the curriculum, creating and managing the registration process, producing the materials, managing and maintaining the online course delivery site, and all instructional and administrative contact with the students.
  

• In exchange for your outreach and marketing, you receive 40% of the registration fees related to the nonprofits in your community.

Our affiliate program is designed with one goal in mind: To make it easy for nonprofit membership associations like yours to deliver the great grants training your nonprofits want and need - and support your member service goals.

• You receive a generous 40% share of all revenues from affiliate registrations - which can range from hundreds to thousands of dollars in unrestricted funds for your association!

The Affiliate's primary role is to take the lead in marketing/outreach to nonprofits in its service territory (both members and non-members).

Affiliate Agreement and Account Setup. 

• On signing our Affiliate Agreement, GrantsMagic U will set up an Affiliate Account for you, through the GrantsMagic U online course delivery platform. 

• You will receive instructions for accessing this account and will be free to access it at any time. 

• You can view a Sample Affiliate Agreement here. 

Unique Tracking Link. 

• As an Affiliate, your organization will be assigned a unique URL to use in all marketing communications about the course. 

• This is the URL that all of your contacts will use to register for the course.  

• When one of your contacts uses the unique URL to register and pay for the course, their payment is entered automatically on your Affiliate Account and the agreed-upon Affiliate fee is calculated and recorded.

Branded Information Pages.

• As an Affiliate, you will have customized information and registration web pages that are uniquely co-branded with your nonprofit association. 

• This means that, right up until they enroll in the paid course, your nonprofit contacts will associate your organization with the great training they are receiving. 

• Here's an example of a branded information page for the current"Blueprint" program.
  

Member Discount Codes. 

• You will also receive a special discount code to be shared with your members, which automatically gives them a $50 discount on their registration fee. 

• We will create a customized "how-to" page that tells your nonprofit contacts exactly how to get and use this special members-only code. (We also build in an upsell to encourage people to become members if they aren't already!)

• Here's a customized "how-to" page - using the honor system.

• Here's a "how-to" page that puts the discount code behind your website's members-only wall.
  

Customized Marketing / Promotional Messages.

• We do it all for you! For each public webinar and the Blueprint program, you'll receive a set of messages customized to your organization that you'll use to build your event promotion calendar. 

• You'll have options suitable for social media posts, e-newsletter bulletins, stand-alone e-blasts, your online calendar listings, etc.

• Each message will be customized with your organization's name and the unique links your nonprofits will use to connect with and enroll in the GrantsMagic U event. 

• You can simply use the messaging exactly as it is - or further customize it to fit your own needs, style, and personality!

Affiliate Activity Reports. 

• Every six months, we'll send you a detailed report of all the activity in your "affiliate account." 

• This includes a list of names, emails, and organizations of all enrollees in the course that came in through your association; whether they were paid or free team members; and whether they used the members-only discount code to enroll.

• (We can also run special reports on request at any time!)

We love to support your membership growth! That's why we've created a simple "members-only discount" process that affirms the value of membership in your association - and encourages enrollees to become members if they aren't already!

As an Affiliate, you'll be assigned a unique "members-only" coupon code that your members can enter when they sign up, to save $50 off their enrollment. 

• $197 Affiliate price, non-member. This is the price an enrollee pays who is using an Affiliate link to register but who is not registering as a member of the Affiliate.

• $147 Affiliate price, members only. This is the price someone pays who is a member of the Affiliate, uses the Affiliate link to register, and enters a custom "member coupon” code on registration.
  

We help you promote this members-only $50 discount as a great value for your members. 

We also work with you to set up access to the members-only discount code in the way that best fits your own member-benefit goals and practices. 

Finally, the language we use encourages people who aren't already members to become members before enrolling - so they can take advantage of the $50 saving!

Whatever the price paid, as an Affiliate your organization receives an industry-leading 40% of all revenues from registrations made through the Affiliate link. Payment is processed and sent every six months based on enrollments during the preceding six months.

Revenue share is unrestricted income to your association - and it really adds up. For our Summer-Fall 2020 series, the total shared out to our affiliate partners came to almost $7,000 - including one affiliate who earned $2,673. 

And the good news is, the amount you receive as your affiliate revenue share is directly correlated with the effort, energy, and enthusiasm your organization invests in getting the word out to your community about GrantsMagic U's "Ultimate Grant Proposal Blueprint" course!
