General Political Consulting

Stutts ran Senator John Thune’s grassroots political efforts in 2002.

In the 2000 Presidential campaign, Stutts worked with former President George H.W. Bush (41) on behalf of the Republican National Committee.

A general consultant provides the candidate and the campaign team guidance on all facets of your campaign including drafting a message and strategy plan, grassroots organizing, paid and earned media, fundraising, polling, scheduling, etc. Unlike other general consultants, Phillip Stutts & Company, Inc. views its role and provides guidance to your campaign in two distinct forms, utilizing both macro and micro consultation approaches.

Consulting a political campaign from a macro viewpoint allows the consultant to see the big picture and focus on creative ideas and solutions to aggressively advance the campaign to victory on Election Day.  A micro political viewpoint takes a hands-on approach to make sure the staff and candidate are executing their daily goals.

Phillip Stutts & Company, Inc. takes a simple approach to consulting political candidates running for office: it’s your campaign and most importantly your reputation on the line, and we will devise a campaign strategy around your beliefs, your ideas, and your convictions.

No campaign should take a one-size-fits-all strategy. A consultant who uses the same old strategies campaign after campaign is neither thinking “outside the box” nor giving that candidate an advantage to win.
