What we do

Patriot Consulting is a full service public affairs and lobbying operation that can custom build a solution for your business, organization, or project. How do we do this? By educating community members about your objectives and mobilizing them to support your goals. Local voices drive policy decisions and win elections, and we’ve got the experience and personnel on the ground to connect your project to a motivated grassroots constituency. Every project is different, so we like to start by offering a free consult to your team. After we get a feel for your project, you can expect a draft action plan and suggested budget within 48 hours.

Capitol Lobbying

Zach has years of experience advocating for a variety of clients under the dome in Augusta and can help build a coalition to put your issue front and center. Concerned about legislation that will negatively impact your business? Let us take a look at the bill and we can discuss a variety of avenues to defeat harmful proposals, or at least negotiate more acceptable language.

sOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT

Love it or hate it, the world now lives on social media, and in Maine, that largely means Facebook. When done well, Facebook provides an efficient avenue to spread your message to households that may have otherwise been out of reach. While traditional outreach models have focused on direct mail and landline telephones, social media provides nearly boundless opportunities to speak with individuals in the exact region where your issue matters.

GRASSROOTS ENGAGEMENT

Consultants don’t win campaigns or move legislation-people do. Patriot Consulting can get Maine people fired up about your project by engaging local opinion leaders and activating grassroots supporters. Politics in Maine are as local as they come, and the easiest way to get decision makers on your side is to make sure they are hearing from their neighbors-we can make that happen.

CAMPAIGN MANAGEMENT

With experience managing statewide ballot initiatives, as well as races for Governor, United States Senate, hundreds of Maine Legislative races, and even local referendums, Zach has consulted on races of every sort, in every corner of Maine. Message development and communications strategies are important elements of any campaign, but the most important consideration is always the voters. We can help you answer the central question in any campaign effort: do the voters care enough about your issue to show up at the polls and remember to vote with you?
