• LOBBYING & ADVOCACY
  

  G2G gives you the essentials for effective lobbying and advocacy: perseverance, first-hand knowledge of the legislative and political process, and access.

  G2G steers clients through the maze of federal, state and local government systems. We develop a tailored strategic plan and provide hands-on guidance for every step of implementation:

  • Coaching on how to communicate effectively with elected officials in Washington, D.C.
  • Identifying top issues and how they relate to legislation
  • Drafting policy proposals
  • Developing a lobbying and/or advocacy strategy
  • Writing white papers
  • Meeting key legislative timelines
  • Tracking legislation
  • Planning open houses in the district



• FUNDRAISING
  

  G2G advises clients on how to develop a fundraising plan and maximize opportunities to raise funds through government sources, private foundations and individual donations.

  We research funding opportunities that exist on the federal, state and local level through grants, discretionary funding and earmarks that are funded in the annual appropriations process. By tracking grant RFPs (requests for proposals), G2G determines which opportunities make the most sense to pursue and develops the necessary messages, contacts and campaigns to achieve success.

  Outside of government sources, G2G directs clients - particularly non-profits - on how to raise money by expanding organizational boards of directors, making introductions to corporations and potential collaborative partners, writing grant applications for both government and foundation funding opportunities, and planning fundraising events.



• PUBLIC RELATIONS & EVENTS
  

  G2G manages every strategic and logistical detail to provide clients with comprehensive, sophisticated public relations services.

  Whether you are launching a new product, planning a media event or responding to a crisis, G2G is here to manage your communications challenges and opportunities. Our pro-active approach enhances the image, effectiveness and productivity of an organization through:

  • Creative message development
  • Media relationship-building
  • Valuable strategic alliances
  • Story placement



• GRANT WRITING
  

  G2G provides valuable and timely counsel on grant opportunities, including writing grant applications.

  More than tracking grant announcements, G2G targets opportunities with the highest likelihood for success for clients, maintains strong communications with agencies providing grants, guides clients through the entire process, and writes effective grant applications. This tailored approach maximizes grant opportunities for success and avoids wasting time on grants that clients are unlikely to obtain.



• OHIO THIRD FRONTIER & DEPARTMENT OF DEVELOPMENT
  

  The nexus between product innovation and business success is often early money with no strings attached, and G2G knows how to get it.

  Securing Third Frontier grants can be vital to commercializing innovative technologies and helping businesses succeed in Ohio. G2G works closely with clients and the ODOD to assess the most appropriate RFPs for clients, provides introductions to key officers within the department during the application process, and writes grants that maximize opportunities for success.



• GRASSROOTS ORGANIZING
  

  Depending on the client's needs, G2G can organize a community mobilization effort with public events and letter writing campaigns in the district and/or state of the targeted legislator.

  We determine the most effective types of grassroots activities at the best time to maximize impact and then implement all of the necessary steps for success. A poignant message can be sent to Members of Congress in D.C. or state legislators to influence policy and regulatory decisions through a range of tactics

  • Coordinated letter writing campaigns
  • Letters to the editor
  • On-location press events, demonstrations and other mobilization activities
  • Targeted meetings with key businesses, community leaders and economic development entities
