What We Offer
Our Comprehensive and Transparent Approach to Representation
Too often, firms capitalize on their client’s ignorance of the government relations practice, encouraging them to simply throw money at the 
problem and hope for favorable outcomes. At Segermark and Associates, we regard our job, prior to the implementation of effective action, to provide analysis of achievable goals and assistance in the development of priorities for clients. For our clients who lack experience in government relations, we concentrate not only on diagnosing the problem, but also on careful, shared analysis. We provide all of our clients with the full panoply of options before them, the expected costs, and likely outcomes from the outset.
- We regard it crucial to obtain, first, a detailed understanding of our client’s practices, interests, concerns, and priorities to determine the efficacy of spending funds on government relations representation.
- Secondly, we provide a sufficient framework of the relevant statutes, political players, and processes with respect to our client’s needs and priorities in order to clearly present the practical means to promote their interests.
- Lastly, working within this framework, we develop clearly outlined and targeted lobbying strategies to implement and achieve success for our clients on Capitol Hill.
Value and Accountability
We believe that the justification by any entity — and particularly publicly held corporations — of government relations expenditures requires very specific documentation which is not offered by most other multi-client government relations firms. We provide documentation and frequent updates to ensure our clients that they are putting their resources to good use.
