Edit Right AdvisorsHow we work
Every Edit Right Advisors engagement follows six steps: first call, scoping, proposal, delivery, review, and handover. A senior lead signs off on every deliverable, a reviewer who did not write the draft checks it, and you approve everything before it goes out. We work remotely, with one point of contact on each side.
The engagement steps
- First call: a free call to understand your need and tell you honestly whether we fit.
- Scoping: we review your documents and the funder's requirements, and agree the decision or deliverable.
- Proposal: you receive a written quote with scope, milestones, dates, and price.
- Delivery: we build each deliverable alongside your team, sharing drafts early.
- Review: a reviewer who did not write the draft checks it, and you review it in agreed rounds.
- Handover: you receive editable files, reusable content, and the reasoning behind them.
Behind these steps sits The 3D Journey: Discovery, Design, and Delivery.
The 3D Journey: Discovery to Delivery
Behind these steps sits The 3D Journey: Discovery, Design, and Delivery.
In Discovery, we work through needs navigation, fact finding, and scope and schedule, so the work starts from what you actually need. In Design, we plan and prepare, run review rounds, and ask for your clearance before anything is final. In Delivery, the handover hub gives you the finished files and the reasoning behind them, and lessons learned carry into your next opportunity.
Our standards
- Quality Quotient: a reviewer checks every deliverable at five levels: compliant, accurate, aligned, insightful, and useful. It reaches you only when it passes all five.
- Compliance Checked: every eligibility rule, format, word limit, and attachment is checked against a compliance matrix before submission.
- Evidence Excellence: every figure and claim has a named source on file. Gaps come back to you as questions, not guesses.
- Privacy Protected: your information is used only for your work and seen only by the project team.
Our commitments
- Crystal Clarity: we write for a busy reviewer, in plain language.
- Compliance Confidence: we flag any eligibility, format, or submission risk before the agreed deadline.
- Realistic Results: we promise strong, honest, and complete work on the agreed dates, never a funding decision.
- Lasting Legacy: your team is better prepared for the next opportunity.
Ways of working
- Clear Communication: one point of contact on each side and a short update at each milestone.
- Client Contributions: you provide documents, data, decisions, and access to people on the agreed dates.
- Collaborative Creation: we build with your team, so the work sounds like you.
- Change Control: any change to scope, deadline, or deliverables is agreed in writing first.
- Early Escalation: concerns go to the engagement lead and are settled promptly.

How we charge
We charge a fixed fee agreed in a written scope, or by the hour for smaller tasks. Payments come in three steps: 40% to start, 30% at the midpoint, and 30% on final delivery. We never charge a percentage of a grant, in line with the Grant Professionals Association (GPA) Code of Ethics.
Questions clients ask
Do you guarantee funding?
No. We commit to what we control: the quality, accuracy, and timeliness of our work. Funding decisions rest with funders.
Do you support organizations outside the United States?
Yes. We advise clients remotely around the world.
What do you need from us?
One point of contact, plus your documents, data, decisions, and access to people on the agreed dates. Our timeline depends on these, and we say early if a delay will move a deadline.
How long does an engagement take?
It depends on the scope and the funder deadline. After a free call, you receive a written quote with milestones and dates.
Who submits the proposal?
You do, unless the agreed scope names us to submit on your behalf. Nothing goes out before you approve the final version in writing.
