Identifying and coordinating eligible funding programs beyond the CAS stream, where applicable.
The Grand Falls area, served locally by CBDC Victoria-Madawaska, reflects an economic base rooted in forestry and wood products, seafood processing, tourism and hospitality, advanced manufacturing, and agriculture. Our advisory work accounts for this mix when shaping funding strategy, cash flow planning, and growth recommendations.
Advisory funding for Grand Falls is administered locally through CBDC Victoria-Madawaska, part of the Atlantic Canada CBDC network funded by ACOA.
No. The Consulting Advisory Services program is a fee-reimbursement grant, not a loan. Eligible businesses in Grand Falls are reimbursed up to 75% of approved consultant fees (capped at $5,000, HST excluded) — there is nothing to repay.
The program is funded by the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA) and administered locally through CBDC Victoria-Madawaska. Business Crafters 3.0 is an independent consulting firm; we are not the funding administrator, and final approval rests with CBDC Victoria-Madawaska.
This program is generally limited to existing, operating businesses. Startups are not eligible under the default CAS rules that apply across the Victoria-Madawaska network.
No consulting firm can guarantee funding approval. We help Grand Falls businesses prepare a strong, complete application, but eligibility and final decisions are made by the program administrator.
Eligible engagements typically include business planning, financial advisory, marketing strategy, operational improvement, and digital transformation projects — the type of structured advisory work Business Crafters 3.0 provides.
