ISSUE MANAGEMENT

Preparation and a strong understanding of clients’ issues are both key to properly managing any policy, finance, or appropriation effort. Throughout the entire legislative process, TSG actively engages on behalf of clients – attending committee meetings, reporting new developments, legislative tracking and analysis, and all other related activities. A fruitful approach must be aware of emerging matters that affect your business, and TSG is always seeking new information to anticipate those next steps.

Strategic consulting

Legislative and regulatory processes are very arduous and nearly impossible to navigate without a seasoned guide. The proven ability to find a successful course of action as well as experience with complex issues provides TSG clients with a competitive advantage. Our unique insights and tactical focus are put to work to achieve your objectives and avoid potential landmines. The message must be on-point and targeted to the proper recipients. TSG provides clients with this invaluable direction.

LOBBYING

To effectively engage legislators and other policymakers, it is necessary to have proficient knowledge of organizational structures and processes. It also requires productive relationships with those that control the direction of your issues and/or legislation. Gaining such knowledge and developing these connections does not happen overnight. It takes time in this arena as well as consistent and trusted interaction. TSG has relationships with a wide range of elected and public officials throughout North Carolina. We utilize experience, knowledge, and relationships to provide effective, deliberate action for clients and their goals.
