General Consulting

Hamilton Campaigns, as an integrated decision-making firm, provides general consulting services to its clients. In this role, our job is to make sure the information we receive from polling, research, and electoral targeting is turned into an actionable campaign plan backed up by a working, realistic budget. Polling, opposition research, and a solid turnout model based on an analysis of past election results are the backbone of any written campaign plan and budget. These research services affect resource allocation, paid and earned media plans, field activities, and political outreach and in our role as general consultant we make sure that your resources are being used most effectively.

As general consultant, we can help put your team together by vetting and setting up interviews with other consultants and helping you negotiate their contracts. We help ensure that all paid media (television, mail, and phones) reinforce each other and the other campaign activities. We also work closely with the campaign manager to ensure there is a written campaign plan and a realistic, itemized campaign budget that is strictly followed. And we generally serve as a day-to-day resource for the campaign on all strategic issues.
