Hi Shane

 

FYI, I got the job.

 

Thanks for your help in getting through the front door in the first place.

 

Job well done. Thanks so much.

 

Greg

 


 

I have read through the addressed SC and like what I have read.


Actually that is an understatement, I am absolutely blown away, whilst it is all true your way of piecing the information together is astronomical.

My application came No.1 out of 76 applications.

 

I have also been interviewed and just found out on Friday I was successful in the process.

 

I’d like to greatly thank you for your assistance in helping me craft a top application.

 

The guidance and direction you provided was very much appreciated.

Amy's work was excellent - very quick to reply to emails and she wrote well - very positive research and she knew the school context - thank you.

Principal

Everton Park State High School

 


 

It's hard to portray enthusiasm over email but trust me, I am very happy with what you have written and could not have done something even half as good. I have made the right choice by choosing you and trust me, if any time in the future I need another application, I will be utilising your skills so THANK YOU! I love it! :)

Testimonial – Shane Bowering

 

I would like to personally thank you for your fantastic efforts in assisting the team from UnitingCare Health in preparing the recent submission to the Health and Hospitals Fund Regional Priority Round.  As you are no doubt aware our submission for funding for the development and implementation of our eHealth project which will support the redevelopment of the St Stephen’s Hervey Bay Hospital was successful!  This project is an exciting and innovative project and is vital in delivering cutting edge health services to our clients across the Fraser Coast.  Through this submission we were successful in winning $21.2 million to fund this project which is a wonderful result.

 

Your personal contribution in assisting the team as well as drafting, reviewing and critiquing the submission as it progressed was greatly appreciated.  While this certainly was a team effort with many contributors, your knowledge and experience of grant funding and in preparing complex high quality submissions was invaluable.

 

The team at UnitingCare again thank you for your efforts and we have no hesitation in providing the highest recommendation regarding your knowledge, skill and experience. 

 

Good luck in the future.

 

Regards

 

Kathy Campbell

Chief Information Officer

UnitingCare Health

 

 

Melissa does a wonderful job, she’s great to work with and we are always happy with the end result.

I would like to thank Shane Bowering from Red Tape Busters in regards to his expertise in putting together my resume for Queensland Health.

 

Having never worked in a Government department, it was so daunting to think of putting the appropriate resume together – Shane, with his knowledge, was able to translate my experience into the suitable language needed to answer the criteria for the particular role I was interested in.

 

Without Shane’s assistance I would never have had the confidence to persue this new role.

 

Red Tape Busters does just that – helps you jump over the red tape!

 

 

Regards

Rhonda from Kallangur

 


 

I was very impressed with the service that you (Shane) & Beth have provided in completing the grant submission for Oakey A., P. & R. Society Inc. & would be pleased to recommend your service to anyone.


Beth provided a clear action plan with due dates for completion. It was quite evident that she had undertaken extensive research, and was very accommodating with any questions that I had.


I felt confident that we had a good working relationship, and her attitude was very professional.
 
Many thanks

Our company would like to express our deepest thanks and appreciation to the staff at Red Tape Busters.  They have been writing our tender applications for the past 3 months and I am delighted to say that we have won two tenders that Red Tape Busters completed for us.  We are very pleased with the personal attention they have given us and we consider them to be part of our team.  We can honestly say that their personal attention to detail, ability to listen and translate our business has been fulfilling.  Once again, we express our gratitude.  We will be continuing to use Red Tape Busters for each tender we need to submit.

My overall impression was one of satisfaction. Despite the fact that Amy and I were only able to work together via phone and email it was an easy process. The application completed by Amy was very good and I’m sure will give us every chance of being successful. Also, I appreciated the work completed given the very short timeframe.

 

I look forward to working with you in the future, and given Amy has knowledge about us I would be happy to work with her again.

 

Regards

Evan Munroe

State Services Manager

I recently had cause to deal with Shane at Red Tape Busters.  I was impressed with Shane’s collected demeanour and positive attitude during what was a pretty stressful situation at times.  A very professional organisation that I would be happy to recommend highly to friends, family and colleagues.  Irrespective of whether or not the application is successful, we are very appreciative of Shane’s efforts and look forward to dealing with him again in the near future. 

 

Thanks again

Linda Whitworth

 


 

Shane - I just want to thank you and Theresa for the wonderful job in having our kitchen/cold room refurbishment project receive funding in the amount of $32k. I know this is your job and maybe some people just believe this is the outcome they should get but I realise how difficult this is and how hard funding is to access. These funds will help us to feed the homeless and disadvantaged people in the Redcliffe area.

 

Without this funding we could not have continued with assisting these disadvantaged people. I am looking at more projects in the new year so I will make contact with you then.

 

Regards and blessings

It is such a great service that you offer, especially me being so time poor with full time work and mum to a toilet training 18 month old!

 

Thank you, I sincerely appreciate all your help, you have made my life easier, so for that I thank you!

 

Arlene Wagner

 

 

I wish to take this opportunity to thank both you (Bob) and Shane (Red Tape Busters) for your assistance, support and commitment during this entire process. Regardless of the outcome, I firmly believe our exposure to Red Tape Busters and the knowledge we have obtained in preparing this Tender will make our organisation better and stronger for the experience.  When the next opportunity arises for VVA to participate in a tendering process, it will be our intention to utilise Red Tape Busters’ excellent services once again.

 

Without reservation, I would highly recommend Red Tape Busters to any organisation requiring assistance with the preparation and submission of tender response documents.

We have worked with Red Tape Busters for the last 12 months and have been delighted with the quality of work and the service that Lisa English provides.

 

Her knowledge of Grants that are available and familiarity with expectations and processes particularly for the three tiers of government have enabled us to receive grants of $2 million so far.

 

Paul Bancroft

Principal, Cleveland District State High School

 

 

On behalf of myself and the members of the SCDMBA I express our deepest thanks for your efforts in us obtaining this funding. Without your assistance we feel applications made by ourselves would NOT have been successful. Red Tape Busters Pty Ltd in our opinion are a FIRST CLASS FIRM WHO POSE THE NECESSARY ACUMEN TO SUCCESSFULLY LODGE FUNDING APPLICATIONS.

 

Once again our deepest thanks…

I could not have been happier. She (Melissa) was so helpful and understanding and very easy to talk to and I look forward to working with her and your company in the future. Again thank you all very much and I will let you know when I hear anything from them.

 

Andrew McCormack

Director, Chelmway Security

 


 

Thank you so much! Will highly recommend you!

I initially approached Shane seeking advice regarding accessing Government Funding to support the expansion of my meat processing facility. Shane was unsure of the possibilities but agreed to look into it. He identified an opportunity through the Federal Government Dairy Regional Assistance Program. Shane prepared our application for funding and some months later we were successful in receiving $220,000. This was a huge boost to the business. Shane has since prepared reports detailing the expenditure of the funds and our project is now complete with the facility entirely operational. I have found Shane to be relaxed, easy to deal with and he gets results!!!

Red Tape Busters have been working with us for over four years. We are a disability support organisation at Nambour on the Sunshine Coast and provide accommodation support for those in need. We initially engaged Red Tape Busters to identify various Government Funding opportunities to help us renovate our Centre. We have also used the expertise of staff from Red Tape Busters to prepare our Strategic and Operational Plans and to prepare similar documents for our State Wide Disability Services Group. We have already been successful in receiving funding of $30,000 for a disability ramp and also were successful with a submission for $4.9million to construct disability specific accommodation at our Nambour facility. The submissions and documents prepared by Red Tape Busters were first class. Even the staff from Disability Services Queensland who read one submission prepared by Red Tape Busters have said that it was one of the best submissions they had seen. I recommend these guys to anyone seeking funding or in need of business or strategic plans.

I have some great news (thanks to you). I have been offered two Transport Inspector’s jobs with Queensland Transport subject to criminal & medical check. I have gone from having a lot of interviews over the years without being successful to (after one session with you) being offered two jobs at once. I would just like to say thank you very much for all your help. I found it to be the best money I have spent for a long time. I would highly recommend you anytime. Once again, thank you - you do a fantastic job!!!

Shane - as you know I have been given the run around for years by Brisbane City Council over the removal of a tree in front of my property. I had always thought that the tree was dangerous but Council refused to remove it. I contacted Red Tape Busters to help me and within a matter of days Council had removed the tree. Thank you so much - I really appreciate your quick service. I have no idea how you resolved a problem in a few days when Council refused to do anything for years but you are wonderful.
