Firehouse Strategies
Firehouse Strategies is a full-service public affairs firm that focuses on delivering targeted persuasion campaigns for a wide variety of corporate clients. Based on lessons learned from decades of political experience, culminating in a 2016 presidential campaign, Firehouse Strategies was created to apply that expertise to corporate public affairs. Firehouse successfully executes public affairs campaigns for Fortune 100 companies, prominent trade associations, business coalitions, and nonprofits. It also has an expanding litigation support, reputation and crisis management practice for high-profile individuals. We put a premium on authentic, organic communication instead of press releases, patch-through calls, and astroturfing. We do this by using data to identify a targeted audience, crafting an authentic message based on what really motivates the audience, and executing a strategy that yields the greatest return on investment. At a time when there is great distrust in institutions and media, the Firehouse team curates authentic content from media sources and influencers trusted by our target audience.
