Our detailed Strategic Incumbency Protection Plan outlines how you will meet fundraising goals and increases your profile in the district. The plan is designed to minimize the threat of potential opponents and sometimes keeping them out of the race altogether. Specific to both your office and district, the plan makes the most of the legislative session by working with the press, enhancing constituent contact and service, implementing strategic scheduling, creating partnerships with other Democratic legislators, and broadening your fundraising base.
Website development and design is the latest addition to the Rice Consulting digital media team. A professional website with user interactivity is the way to stay ahead of the curve, and more importantly your competition. Email Marketing consisting of e-blasts and e-newsletters keep constituents and clients apprised of your public schedule, successful legislative efforts, and activity in the community. Rice Consulting also maintains your social media networks like Facebook and Twitter. We will help you to run ads with google or facebook and accept donations online through your website or social media. Stay connected to the community you represent!
There is no substitute for a clean, well-maintained fundraising database. We cleanse your database of faulty contact information, duplicates, and returned mailing addresses. Our reliable and well organized databases maximize the efficiency of your call time. Rice Consulting systematizes, enhances, and manages each client\'s fundraising database, adding names of proven Democratic contributors and contact information collected during the Session. We have helped clients to build databases from scratch and doubled - sometimes tripled - the number of donor prospects in existing databases.
Rice Consulting polishes your image with custom literature design, photography packages and more. Presentation is everything.
