Tailored Pricing
Nearly all of our projects fall within the 4-5 figure range. The complexity of the work is the primary determinant of price, but your organizational maturity also plays a big role. We strive to be accessible to as many budding initiatives as possible.
Flexible Payment Options
Choose from subscription models, retainers, or one-off projects to suit your needs.

Maximizing Your Budget with Written Progress
At Written Progress, we strive to make exceptional services accessible to organizations at all stages of growth.
To help our clients maximize their budgets and make the most of our expertise, we’ve designed flexible pricing options and initiatives tailored to your needs.
Whether you’re a budding nonprofit, a seasoned institution, or somewhere in between, we have options to make high-quality support more accessible.
Non-Profit Discounts
Mission-driven organizations deserve impactful support without straining their resources. That’s why we offer significant discounts to nonprofits. These rates are designed to empower grassroots initiatives and established nonprofits alike, allowing them to invest more in their missions while benefiting from professional, high-impact grant writing and sustainability consulting services.
Storytelling Opportunities
Organizations willing to share their story on our platforms can access exclusive discounts. This involves a short 15- to 30-minute interview with our team, during which we’ll capture your journey and achievements. From this, we create engaging video clips, quotes, or blog posts for your review and approval before posting. Not only do you benefit from reduced rates, but your story also reaches a broader audience, amplifying your impact.
Sliding Scale Based on Organizational Maturity
We understand that an organization’s ability to invest in services often correlates with its stage of growth. Our sliding scale pricing ensures that smaller or emerging organizations can access the expertise they need, while established institutions receive comprehensive, scalable support. This approach levels the playing field, giving newer initiatives the chance to thrive.
Retainer Options
Our retainer option ensures seamless access to our expertise on your timeline, providing peace of mind and allowing you to secure services without immediate pressure to finalize project details. With this option, you can plan ahead confidently, knowing our team is ready to deliver support when you need it most. Your credit with us is tracked for use as needed. This option may be particularly helpful for clients with rapidly approaching burn rate or funding expiration deadlines.
Cancel-Anytime Monthly Subscriptions
Flexibility is crucial, especially for organizations navigating dynamic funding cycles. Our cancel-anytime monthly subscriptions let you access our expertise without long-term commitments. This option is ideal for those who value adaptability, enabling you to scale services up or down as your needs evolve.
AI-Friendly Opportunities
Leverage the power of AI to maximize deliverables and elevate quality. By integrating advanced tools into our workflows, we streamline processes, accelerate timelines, and ensure polished, impactful results. This means your organization receives high-quality work efficiently, helping you stretch every dollar further.
