I'm looking for information on how much grant writers usually charge an institution for their services. For those of you who use outside grant writers, do you include the cost of the grant writer in the grant or do you pay the grant writer up front. I would assume that if you do it the first way, the grant writer would go unpaid if the grant is not funded. Is there an average price that grant writers charge (per hour/per grant/etc.) Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated!
