finance + compliance

The most crucial and critical aspect of any campaign is its compliance with financial reporting and contribution laws. Campaigns that struggle to find an efficient, detail-oriented treasurer often find themselves spending much of their time and resources trying to avoid potential fines and legal challenges from obscure violations.

community engagement

Traditionally a campaign’s strategy, scheduling and messaging for different constituencies in a community is relegated to one individual. We believe that authentic constituency engagement begins with each team member’s investment in an equitable community engagement plan.
