Strategic Advocacy

Influencing public policy and advancing legislation is a difficult task. Securing funds or passing laws takes considerable effort and requires strategic thinking and persistence.

This experience gives us the skills to design effective campaign strategies that best meet our clients' needs and utilize our clients strengths. We pay close attention to details and tailor our efforts to achieve success. The Strategy Group provides support and advice to help our clients become better advocates for their initiatives for the long run.

Community Relations

Support for a new development in a neighborhood can often be the critical factor that moves a project from the drawing board to a ground-breaking ceremony. The Strategy Group works with developers to build relationships with public officials, abutters, community groups and organizations whose voices can determine whether and how a project goes forward. By reaching out, listening and thoughtfully responding to concerns, The Strategy Group tries to make supporters out of potential opponents. Whether it's engaging neighborhood residents and property owners over the phone, coordinating letters of support during a comment period or running a public hearing, The Strategy Group is prepared to assist our clients in gaining support from decision makers.

The Strategy Group uses this expertise to provide our clients with sensible and effective strategies. We understand the constraints and pressures on the people running today's multimedia news. We understand the modern news cycle and we use our knowledge of that process to communicate and help control your message. We have extensive experience with media outlets throughout the state.
