Why is it so difficult to get free money for my business from a government grant?

First, you need to be aware that no government grant money is free, as all such programs are conditional in some way. However, to get small business grant money from the Australian government, one must be considered eligible and then go through an approval process. This process can be taxing for some, depending on the people involved, what they are seeking the money for, and the qualifying conditions of the government grant program in question. As such, the right circumstances can make it easy for one to get government grant money while other circumstances may make it extremely difficult or even impossible.
