Movement Building for Organizations
Authentic leadership builds movements.
Infrastructure grows them.
We’re in it for the long haul. We’re movement builders at heart: building the infrastructure that supports change-makers is our love language.
To be successful and sustainable, your organization needs four things:
Money
Time
Strategy
Goals
That’s where we come in. We are an award-winning progressive consulting firm that specializes in fundraising, digital, mail, ads, field, policy, press, and training.
Whether the organization is just an idea in your head, a fledgling project, or a 50-year-old county Democratic Party — doing this work is hard.
And who has the time?
Let’s be honest: your role is thankless. You’re volunteering your time and resources to help the movement — but you’re tired. And, you’re hearing a lot of no.
You may even be getting yelled at or caught up in silly drama started by armchair quarterbacks. Every other day you wonder why you got yourself into this.
But you know why. Your community needs you. Better people need to be elected. Better policies need to be enacted. Better strategy needs to be carried out. And no one else is doing it… so you have to.
We get it.
We know that while attention comes and goes with the election cycles, the needs of the community don’t just disappear because the public forgot. We know it takes year-round multi-cycle funding and strategy to build toward victory. And we know that it takes a LOT from a person to dedicate their time and energy to making positive change in a world of never-ending crisis.
Here’s the thing: We know you’re only human. (Don’t worry, we won’t tell anyone.)
But that’s why we are here — to help real life humans make change and support movements. We live the daily reality of balancing the big work with the little details, and the major stressors with the little wins along the way. We know how to aim for long and short term victories and help you build the infrastructure for both.
As a one-stop-shop for progressive organizations we can help you no matter the goal.
Want to start a PAC or nonprofit? Sounds fun. Want to lobby or advocate for a policy? Love it. Need to fundraise for a cause? Let’s do it.
Don’t know where to start? No problem.
We do.
We are your partner in movement building, increasing political access, tackling systemic problems, and empowering community representation.
We are your insider knowledge. Together, we break barriers and create a future of progress and justice.
With more than 70 years of cumulative experience, we have the expertise to help you succeed.
Clients
Our experienced staff provide comprehensive services tailored to your needs. You only pay for what’s necessary — and can scale up and down as circumstances change. And, our unique in-house model prevents unforeseen or hidden consulting costs, too many cooks in the kitchen, and rivaling strategies and priorities that often derail political projects.
Above all else, we will help you run a non-toxic organization that helps upend the worst parts of politics.
This space doesn’t have to be toxic or mysterious. There doesn’t have to be gatekeeping or pervasive burnout culture. It’s hurting Democrats and the Movement.
So if you’re ready for a partner who knows accessible politics solves problems and no one election cycle is bigger than the issues -- we’re ready to support you, your organization, your community, and your movement.
We are human-centered, and data-informed.
We know how hard politics can be — balancing it all while maintaining your sanity and avoiding burnout is a lot. We’ll help you stay sane by creating efficient strategies that get it done right the first time. Our digital, finance, policy, general consulting strategies are deeply rooted in on-going data and policy analysis.
And, we’ll handle the parts you don’t have the time or expertise for. Your grunt work is our day job.
