Why Hire a Political Consultant

Lawyers understand the law and help you get what you need from a system with complicated rules.

Accountants understand tax regulations and help you avoid a run-in with the IRS.

Political consultants understand government affairs and give you access to the political system. Unlike other government affairs consultants, our chief joy at the Art of Politics is teaching you how to access and educate elected officials and governmental agencies. If you understand how a system works and therefore, where the levers are, you are more than half way to your goal.

You should think about hiring a political consultant if you want the following:

1. A staff/board of directors who knows how to interact with elected officials. We don't call our company The Art of Politics for nothing.
2. A development team that understands the federal or state appropriations process. The federal version of this process takes at least two years. Are you planning ahead?
3. Federal or state funding. Seeking an appropriation is like asking for a motion before a judge. Political consultants know what to say and how to say it.
4. Recognition for the important work of your organization as relates to your community, our country or our world. If you are not in the face of your elected official, someone else will happily take your hour of time.
