Community Relations
is the process whereby a company, business or association gets involved in
and relates to a community. Public Affairs, or media relations, is the
process of communicating your message to the public through news releases
and information pieces. Government Affairs is the process of developing
and expanding relationships with elected officials while trying to protect
the company from adverse legislation. Regulatory Affairs is the process of
working with the regulatory agencies on pending regulations and trying to
influence them to change onerous provisions during the drafting and
consideration process. Grassroots Activity is the process of mobilizing a
group of like-minded people to push for some type of resolution to their
perceived problem. Political Action Committees (PACs) are formed by
special interest groups so that they can contribute to legislative
candidates and political parties. Each of the six segments will be
discussed more in depth in the coming pages.
A business or association that
has the foresight to create and develop a public and government affairs
department has determined that outside forces can and do have a
potentially large impact on the bottom line. Over our years of service, we
have seen that having an effective public and government affairs
organization can protect against unforeseen impacts. You may have some
questions. Give us the opportunity to give you some answers. You will find
that The Trammell Group has much to offer you.
