What is a Government Relations Consultant?
Government Relations (GR) consultants are often referred to as ‘lobbyists’, but their work is more wide ranging. We use our understanding of the political system to offer political and public policy advice to clients. A company normally hires us to provide a skill set, that they don’t have internally, which provides an in-depth understanding of the day-to-day, inner workings of government, policy development and strategic communications.
What can a Government Relations Consultant do for me?
We keep you abreast of political developments to advise you on the best course of action in an often fast-paced environment. We continue to identify key stakeholders in the decision-making process in national, regional, and local governments while working to maintain relationships to support and promote your ideas and interests.
We help you identify and assist in opportunities to present your interests to the government and key decision-makers through Parliamentary Committee briefs, appearances, written submissions, and specialized outreach programs to orient and educate the government about your company.
Whether it’s pointing you in the right direction, opening the door, or holding the pen, we will leverage decades of experience and connections to make sure there are no missed opportunities to share your advice and analysis at the right time, in the right way.
We normally work on a retainer basis to elevate your ideas and your company to ensure it doesn’t miss an opportunity to promote what you’re most passionate about. We work with you and for you to let the decision-makers know of the incredible company you have worked so hard to build.
