Lobbying

Advantus Strategies lobbying services enable clients to be more proactive in assuring public policies are favorable to the day-to-day operations of their businesses. Advantus Strategies also provides its clients a resource for managing a more efficient and less costly governmental affairs program by designing public policy and issue management programs to address the specific needs of its clients. Through our affiliations with other professionals and professional organizations, Advantus Strategies can also assemble teams tailored to meet the specific needs and resources of our clients for grassroots programs and public relations initiatives.

When it comes to legislative lobbying and executive branch relations at the state and local levels, there is no one better prepared than the Advantus Strategies team. Due to increasing two-party competition in local and state government, a bipartisan team is vital. Additionally, when it comes to preparation for government relations, nothing can replace service in state and local government. The Advantus Strategies team includes former long-term appointed government officials and employees who have served Governors and legislators of both political parties and everyone on the team has broad experience in dealing with local and state agencies and offices.

The Advantus team can also assist clients with a broad range of state executive branch relations. We have assisted with executive agency procurements, regulatory actions, budget formulation, program and spending initiatives, executive orders, economic development efforts, infrastructure financing, and public-private partnerships. We have expertise in several areas, including policy development and procurement, public/private partnerships, health care, technology, transportation and public safety issues of all kinds.

Through our affiliations with other professionals and professional organizations, Advantus Strategies can combine our lobbying and government representation services with grassroots programs and public relations initiatives that influence the actions of key leaders and government officials. The Advantus Strategies team will utilize various methods to deliver your message to key decision-makers, including issue briefings, personal letters, and one-on-one meetings. Through grassroots campaigns, we can impact decision-makers at all levels of government in Virginia.

In any grassroots initiative, success depends on getting the right message to the right people, and in a way that makes them want to act. The Advantus Strategies public relations team can develop the grassroots message, tailor it to a variety of audiences, and manage the various media needed for effective communication. We utilize opinion research and press coverage to get our message out. Our primary means of opinion research is polling. Polling provides us with information on how private citizens and public officials feel about issues of interest to our clients. Through press releases, op-ed pieces, the distribution of advocacy materials, and getting media to cover our events, Advantus Strategies can help our clients gain the public’s support.

At Advantus Strategies, we make it happen for our clients.
