Campaigns

Communications is so much more than just putting out a press release or posting to social media. Influence is the goal for any effective communications plan, whether it's for a campaign or corporation. You want your message to resonate with your audience, which means it must be both clear and concise. As they say, "If you're explaining, you're losing."
