Amy Krigsman shares how she doubled her revenue in 2025, reached her first six-figure year, and began scaling ARK Nonprofit Consulting with the support of the Grant Professional Mentorship.

In this case study episode, she talks candidly about moving through the messy middle of business growth, reinvesting in targeted support, building a trusted team, and creating more space in her business by hiring subcontractors and a business development manager. Amy also reflects on why she wishes she had joined mentorship sooner and how one-on-one coaching, peer support, and better business systems helped her grow with more confidence and less stress.

ABOUT OUR GUEST
Amy Krigsman is the Founder, CEO, and Principal Grant Strategist of ARK Nonprofit Consulting. She is passionate about helping nonprofits raise critical funds from institutional partners to ensure their long-term sustainability. My work focuses on creating effective grants strategies, crafting compelling narratives, and building relationships with funders. I offer full grant lifecycle management from research through reporting, including identifying funding opportunities, developing powerful proposals, developing relationships with funders on your behalf, and submitting follow-up reporting for awarded grants. I have worked with a variety of causes including health equity, the arts, and youth development. Ideal clients are nonprofit organizations anywhere in the U.S. with budgets of between $1M and $15M without a dedicated grants manager.
