  • 02: Stop Asking, Start Aligning: How "Governmentese" Wins BIG Grants
    2026/04/21
    Winning a grant isn't about being the customer at a drive-thru; it's about becoming the person behind the counter. In this episode of Winning the Public Purse, David Kincade dives into the psychology of "governmentese" and explains why your project's success depends on your ability to talk about yourself in a way that aligns with the government's mandate. Today's show is a strategic masterclass on how to get "on the menu" before the next grant cycle even opens. From decoding ministerial annual reports to finding the high-value "subheadings" that make an application irresistible to reviewers, you'll learn how to position your organization as a trusted advisor rather than just another name in the pile. If you want to understand why the same organizations seem to win millions of dollars year after year, this will show you exactly how they align their metrics with the heartbeat of the public purse. Ready to transform grant writing into a predictable pillar of your success? David's students have already won over $61M in funding using the frameworks taught in the Advanced Grant Writing Course.

Highlights From This Episode: How most grant applicants fail by focusing only on their own projects instead of understanding the fundamental concept of "governmentese" [0:35] The way election platforms and mandate letters can serve as a strategic roadmap for exactly what governments are looking to fund [2:28] The critical mindset shift required to stop viewing yourself as a customer and start positioning your business as a trusted solution for government problems [4:58] How to find and utilize specific ministry strategies to discover high-impact subheadings for your next application [6:34] Why 70% of successful applicants are known by agencies before they ever receive funding and how to get your organization "on the menu" [11:51] The simple website and press release audit you can perform to align your key metrics with the specific language government ministers want to see [14:15] Key Quotes: "You don't get it. In this example, in grants, understanding governmentese, the government is the customer, okay? They're the person actually coming. They're not on the menu." [9:56] "You want to be on the menu. In other words, you're thought about, you're trusted, you're liked, and they're going to come and 'buy' from you, [or] give you grants in this case. And you don't want to be that person that shows up and says, 'Give me this. I want a grant.'" [13:37] "Your job is to find the strategies in your area and communicate it in a way that when they put a press release about you, it aligns exactly with what the government is trying to do."

  • 01: Winning a $5,000 Restaurant Grant with Mona Pinder
    2026/04/07
    Every year, billions of dollars in government funding go to the organizations that best understand the process. In this inaugural episode of Winning the Public Purse, David Kincade sits down with Mona Pinder, Executive Director of the Alberta Hospitality Association, to discuss the economic realities of an industry operating on "full tables and paper-thin margins." As a former healthcare administrator turned pastry chef and provincial advocate, Mona provides a unique perspective on the "double whammy" facing the hospitality sector: skyrocketing input costs and shifting consumer demands. We discuss the data from the 2026 ATB report, explore why 44% of operators are currently at a breaking point, and learn how the industry accounts for nearly 40% of the tourism workforce. This conversation moves beyond the high-level stats to focus on the "Pursuing the Public Purse" round, where David and Mona decode the Work Integrated Learning (WIL) Grant. From $5,000 hiring incentives to the "Indeed vs. Handshake" gap in youth employment, this episode reveals what restaurateurs and small business owners need right now to transform student hiring into a predictable pillar of their success.

Highlights From This Episode: A look at the fascinating pivot Mona made in her career and how 20 years in healthcare administration prepared her to lead the Alberta Hospitality Association [2:44] The key reasons why record-breaking sales in 2026 haven't translated to profit for restaurant owners [8:43] Why it takes 11.5 people to make $1M in a restaurant compared to only 3.5 in retail [10:46] What's really happening with youth unemployment hitting 14% while restaurants are desperate for staff [17:41] The "necessary evil" of third-party apps and the simple website trick that saves restaurants thousands in fees [24:11] Why unique, independent businesses, and not large chains, are the true drivers of rural tourism and community vibrancy in Canada [27:53] A step-by-step breakdown of how to access $5,000 in funding to bring students into your business using the WIL Grant [30:05] Mona's philosophy on "collecting people" and how breaking out of professional silos is the true key to successful advocacy [37:32] Key Guest Quotes: "Increased sales does not equate to increased profits. The margins have always been thin in restaurants." [8:56] "Our advocacy is we want governments at all levels to think like a small business owner. So you've got to be good with your money and you've got to consider the trickle-down effects." [14:16] "We are still a human contact world. But I think for a lot of young people, it's more of this online world, and that's just hard when you get this random resume." [20:03] "If you're good with computers, the application [for the WIL Grant] takes three minutes. If you're bad with computers, it takes 8 minutes." [32:24] "I always say I like to collect people. So I like to make connections with people and I always try to keep in touch with them... because they can always help you out."
