In the noisy political din of Washington, a clear, compelling message speaks volumes. We craft your message so it resonates with policymakers and speaks their language. Our experience informs us that the most effective messaging plans are multi-tiered and span multiple platforms. Direct lobbying, coalition building, sophisticated public relations tactics, and the effective use of social media and blogs: we explore all these options and pick the most effective course of action.
Consistency is key. Through whatever avenues we push your message, it will stay consistent, track closely with your ultimate goal, and most importantly, ring true for the players you are targeting. We extend the reach of your message through media coverage, public relations initiatives, and coalition-building. We also can back up your position through the development of highly effective position papers, draft legislation, report language, testimony, congressional correspondence, or regulatory comments.
Should your organization or any of its representatives appear before Congress or a regulatory agency, our team can work closely with you to develop the core messaging techniques that result in persuasive, on-point communications. In addition, we work with a talented team of graphic designers, copy editors, and printers to produce sophisticated, eye-catching publications, leave-behinds, digital documents, and videos.
