Issue Management
Our primary goal is to move agendas and achieve results in governmental, political, and business arenas.

In order to serve as a successful advocate for our clients, we perform complete analyses of our clients’ goals, build coalitions, monitor legislation, and organize grassroots involvement in support of client interests.
Strategy Development
We understand the hidden agendas and personalities in both public and government support, even for the most worthy ideas. Our depth of knowledge and keen understanding of Michigan politics is interwoven into the strategy of each individual client. Once we have worked with a client to develop strategies, we work with the client to form a working partnership and execute our course of action.
Public Relations & Grassroots
Scofes & Associates partners with various public relations firms in Michigan when media relation, image management, and crisis communication expertise is needed. To further meet our clients’ needs, we retain the services of top polling firms in the area of message test polling, ballot initiatives, and database development. Through specific and reliable survey research and interpretation, these polling firms can help our clients accurately determine, influence, and communicate public opinion on their issue concerns.
