Areas of Practice
Lobbying
KMCStrategies provides a full array of government relations services to meet the needs of our clients. We serve as advocates for clients before the State Legislature, the Governor’s Office, state agencies and departments.
Effective lobbying requires knowledge of the process, the policy, and the players. KMCStrategies possess the experience and knowledge to connect all three. It's more than just showing up and advocating. We believe it’s critical to develop an intimate understanding of the issues we work on and the impact public policy has on our clients. We also realize that politics shapes every issue and we work to become keenly aware of the background, the dynamics, and the objectives of each elected official.
KMCStrategies works year-round to build relationships that are critical to shaping public policy. That ensures we are positioned to connect with the right people at the right time, no matter the issue or the policymaker.
Coalition Building
Whether pro-actively advocating for legislation or trying to defeat a bad bill, building a broad-based coalition helps to increase our client’s success. KMCStrategies believes that politics is a process of addition. That’s why we focus intensely on building the right support network for the most effective lobbying effort.
We work with a broad array of advocates — from business leaders, trade associations, grassroots organizers and local elected officials. It is our long-term relationships with these allies that help to bring advocacy partners to a coalition and strengthen our legislative efforts.
Whether leading or working with a coalition, we understand the importance of identifying the right messenger to deliver the most effective message to a policy maker.
Strategic Planning
At KMCStrategies, we work with our clients to anticipate issues. That’s why we work with clients to develop strategic plans that anticipate threats and identify opportunities.
We constantly gauge, and work to proactively identify public policy issues are most likely to be at the forefront of each legislative session. This enables KMCStrategies to educate our clients on potential threats, anticipating issues, and prepare for a legislative opportunity.
We view ourselves as thought partners with our clients, sharing their focus on meeting strategic objectives, protecting their brand from onerous legislation and securing public policy results that add value to their bottom line.
