GRASSROOTS ADVOCACY

Orion Strategies assists our clients in making key decisions based on a comparison of the socioeconomic benefits against the political and public relations risks. Orion builds working coalitions that gain momentum until a critical mass is reached and a feeling of inevitability becomes conventional wisdom.

FEDERAL & STATE OUTREACH

In addition to state and local government officials, Orion Strategies is often deployed to help influence federally elected representatives of both parties and their staffs on multiple issues and on advocacy campaigns directed at them.  Additionally, opportunities arise for public comment at both state and federal levels in which Orion Strategies can push to deliver numerous communications in support or opposition to specific rules or projects.

COALITION MANAGEMENT & GRASSTOPS ORGANIZATION

The Orion team develops individual meetings with both active and potential coalition members. The approach for these targets includes networking, presentations and relationship building. Each coalition member is evaluated for likelihood of collaboration and then approached, if and when the timing is appropriate.

ONLINE & SOCIAL MEDIA SUPPORT

Orion Strategies works with clients to develop or enhance websites and social media through engaging content to support issues and causes for developing third-party advocates and stakeholders. Then, that organization can be mobilized to reach elected officials, policymakers and the public.
