Research & Issues Management

The building block for any communications effort is solid, professional research. While the Internet has made information more readily available, an increase in material does not translate into solid research. The key to effective research is taking the time to review and analyze mounds of information, and to possess the political savvy to boil it down into effective, game-changing “concepts” that can make the difference in a campaign, whether it is someone running for elected office or a corporation engaged in a highly visible public issue.  This is what sets Richardson Consulting apart from others.

Specifically, Richardson Consulting offers the following research services:

• Opposition and vulnerability studies involving political candidates (electronic and field research).

• Strategic research services for 527s, and political organizations involved in independent expenditures and other political campaign activities.

• Issues monitoring and policy analysis for corporations, trade groups, and political entities.

He has built groups from the ground up, such as former Congressman Steve Largent’s Leadership PAC. He has also served as Executive Director of the American Danish Business Council and the National Recreation and Park Foundation.  Richardson brings a unique blend of political and communications savvy coupled with a practical, inclusive, balanced, and problem solving leadership style that produces results.
