The Intangibles.

Partnering with us is about more than the tangible services we’ll provide. It’s about the intangibles you need that inform and give value to our work.

• Mission alignment – When we decide to work together, it’s because we believe in what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. We’re going to be in the trenches with you. This isn’t just professional for us, it’s personal. 
• Big-picture thinking – One of our favorite places to be is with you in front of a white board bringing clarity to your goals, processes, and structures. Whether you’re launching a ballot initiative or taking your advocacy organization to the next level, we know how to bring cohesion out of chaos.
• Political and policy instincts – We’ve been in our share of political battles and we have the scars to prove it. We know the landscape and we can identify the political pitfalls and opportunities so they don’t catch you off guard. We also know how policy interacts with politics, who to bring to the table, and the implications you can expect.
• Data immersion – We sit in data pretty much all the time; focus groups and live surveys on dozens of issues, from a variety of states, both high-level and nitty-gritty. Our recommendations are rooted in this awareness.  
• Messaging savvy – We know how to write messages that work. Plus, we find it really satisfying to bring messaging clarity to the thorniest issues and messiest situations. Side bonus – we can teach you to communicate better too!
• Design eye – Your stuff should look great! We think it’s time the best ideas were represented by the best visuals. We stay up to date on the latest design trends while remaining anchored in what works.
