• Political Candidates who want strategic, culturally-sensitive, and psychologically-savvy insight that will help you win
• Current Office Holders who want to serve more effectively, respond to challenge agilely, and bolster personal image and performance
• Lobbyists and Political Action Groups who want to clarify vision and ethically and effectively overcome resistance to implement the dream

"It takes a village"; as part of your team, will work collaboratively with the candidate, other campaign consultants, PR/media experts, and staff and volunteers to bring a unique and essential psychological perspective to your table of advisors.

• We will assist in the development of a comprehensive strategic campaign plan providing a solid road map while fluid enough to respond flexibly to changing conditions. We use focus groups and surveys particularly designed to elicit hidden agendas and abstract emotional motivators to analyze psychological and cultural parameters of your main demographic while micro-targeting 'marginal' constituencies, with sensitivity to subtle motivators and biases. We'll help you effectively recruit, motivate, and utilize community activists and grassroots volunteers.
• We help candidates develop powerful presentation skills to address voters' question of "what's in it for me?" in a culturally aware manner that appeals to both intellect and emotion. This also includes intense debate preparation and techniques to respond positively to attacks. We'll also address emotional factors that maximize fund-raising and endorsement. And our Crisis Management Services are powerful strategies for both the candidate and office-holder faced with negative publicity, economic/political downturn, or national disaster.
• Through our subsidiary, MoonLake CyberSmiths, we can develop or assist on the design of your website, blog, email newsletters, and other tech modalities for getting the word out.
