What we do
Alliance Development
Identify potential allies and champions, who can act as third-party validators. Champions will have a disproportionate amount of political influence in their communities and can help to amplify the effort.
Content Development
Creative concepts provide the framework for additional supportive content including but not limited to: website design, infographics, videos, blog posts, social media posts, digital/broadcast ads, direct mail pieces, whitepapers, etc.
Crisis Communications
It’s important to be prepared for any situation. Whether it’s advance planning or crisis response, our team will assist you with developing messaging, identifying key targets, responding to media inquiries and executing internal communications.
Digital Strategy/Implementation
A strong digital presence is critical. Our team can develop a full-scale digital strategy through the following tactics: website copy/keyword updates, social media channels, digital content creation, online programming (testimonials, videos, etc.). We can also audit existing digital/social media sentiment, which can provide a perspective on the messages and efforts.
Media Relations
The media can be an excellent conduit of distributing key messages to target audiences. Our team maintains relationships with reporters, editors and producers from across the Commonwealth. We can assist with press events, media kit development, online newsroom creation, proactive pitching angles, opinion piece development, etc.
Narrative/Message Development
The establishment of a messaging strategy is pivotal to developing an influential and politically viable campaign – inside and outside of the capitol building. Pillars will be developed to define specific messages to each target audience. Our team also uses storytelling principles, which may include finding personal stories to offer influential arguments.
Research/Polling
Data collection through research provides a baseline of support and provides a deeper understanding of sentiments. Our team utilizes a customized approach to research using qualitative and quantitative options.
