In honor of International Small Business Week, Google is giving out $10K grants to businesses. Here's how many they're giving out, how to nominate yourself, and how to get a nomination from us to increase your chances of winning. Plus, we have walkthrough screenshots and a video for you below to make it even easier for you to enter and have a shot at winning.
Here's How to Enter Google's $10K Grants This Week
On Monday June 27, Google opened their $10,000 grants contest as part of International Small Business Week. They're giving out 10 $10,000 grants. You need to nominate yourself or have someone nominate you. You can be nominated until July 5, 2022 at 11:59pm EST. Winners will be selected randomly on or around July 7th.
We recommend nominating your own business then asking others to nominate your business. Pro-tip: The Skip team can nominate you — see below.
1. Nominate A Business or Multiple Businesses
You can nominate a business here. According to Google's rules, one person can nominate as many businesses as they want, but you can't nominate the same business more than once.
2. Get An Extra Nomination from Skip
According to the contest rules, Google will randomly choose based on entrants and they say you can be nominated multiple times, therefore more entries = better odds of winning. Google has strict rules around preventing any automation or spam or fake entries (they'll be checking).
But, since you're part of the Skip community we'd love to add a nomination for you. You can do it easily in these 3 steps:
- If you don't have a free Skip account, go here to create one.
- Once you create a free account, click Go to Dashboard or go directly to helloskip.com/dashboard
3. Add your business details (required) as pictured below. It takes 30 seconds.
4. Lastly, click "Add Funding" and then enter "Google $10K Grant" and "Awaiting Decision" then click "Save". That's it! Our team will get an alert and we'll nominate you ourselves to increase your odds of winning a $10,000 grant.
3. Get An Extra Nomination from Friends
Feel free to share on social media or ask friends and fellow business owners to nominate you as well. You can follow and tag us on social media; we'll re-share some posts. Here's an Instagram post you can tag someone in as well.
