Grassroots Organization — America — Our Backyard:

About 297 million people live outside the Beltway. It's a place known as America. It's where most of the jobs, businesses and manufacturing are located and it's where most of the living, taxpaying and voting occur. Every elected official owes his or her office to the people that live there. It's a place very familiar to the NFRN.

Through our network of consultants we have our finger on the pulse of every community in every state. Our clients benefit from this relationship because our programs are constructed from the ground up using local knowledge and relationships. When numbers are important the NFRN delivers the constituencies that every elected official must respond to unless they seek a quick trip back to the private sector.

Third Party Advocacy

Anyone can deliver a group of "usual suspects" to help out in an issue advocacy campaign. But with the strength of our field team the NFRN can deliver the voices from left field that make elected officials take notice. NFRN operatives are masters in recruiting and activating coalitions of Third Party advocates to work on our client's behalf.

Who are these advocates? Usually they are individuals that have an interest in an issue but generally no direct tie to a client. They are every day people that we engage for our clients... every day.

RAP INDEX

The RAP Index is a micro-targeting tool that provides you with Actionable Intelligence on your true advocates, the people who have the right relationships and, more importantly, have the attitude, ability and political capital to be effective advocates for you and your issues. With the RAP Index, you can uncover true advocates before you start planning your strategy. It's an intelligence gathering and public affairs assessment program with the power to break through the clutter with this powerful truth. The NFRN partners with the Felkel Group, an industry leader in micro-targeting, in delivering this valuable tool.

Lobbying — State Government

Our reach goes beyond public affairs programs. Sometimes an issue requires hands-on care that a seasoned lobbyist can provide. We understand the value of being selective when searching for lobbyists at the state level. We know that each professional has special strengths that make them valuable and effective in the legislature with state leaders such as governors, attorneys general, regulators and other leaders in state government. We have the most effective professionals for your issue. We manage multi-state legislative lobbying and regulatory efforts, legislative monitoring as well as government relations programs.

Business Development

The NFRN family of consultants is fertile ground for entrepreneurs looking for an opening with government. We can assist developing companies in strategic planning and opening doors with key officials. Our operatives have spent decades cultivating the right relationships than can help a start-up company, or one that's already in place, transition a product or service into the framework of government.
