Testimonials

Don’t believe we’re as good as we say we are?

Here’s what our clients have to say

Heading into our first virtual fly-in, the team at Advocacy Associates made us feel comfortable and confident that we could pull off a great event for our members. They went above and beyond the call of duty for us, and I was thoroughly impressed by everyone on the team. Our attendees found the fly-in web portal to be a fantastic tool that made attending virtual meetings easy and fun. We would not have been able to pull off such a successful fly-in without Advocacy Associates, and I look forward to many more to come

Margaret Hardin, Grassroots Manager, National Association of Convenience Stores

 

I have worked with Advocacy Associates, previously Prime Advocacy, over the last few years for our Kidney Cancer Advocacy Days both in D.C. and more recently virtually.  All our events have been successful and have grown through the help of Advocacy Associates and their staff.  Noah, Lincoln, Paola and Jennifer are all very knowledgeable with the workings of D.C. and their swift responsiveness to any inquiry from our advocates is much appreciated.  I would highly recommend their services to any organization interested in advocacy events.

Advocacy Associates was a tremendous partner in making FASEB’s first-ever virtual fly-in a resounding success and we would not hesitate to hire them again! The Advocacy Associates web portal was a huge hit with our participants and Board leadership and we’ve already received requests to bring that back next year regardless of whether our fly-in is in person or virtual. Everyone felt like the meetings were great, the Zoom platform was easy to use, and even the phone meetings went well. The entire Advocacy Associates team were true professionals, responded immediately to all of our questions and emails and kept us well informed about the progress they were making in securing meetings. In the month since our fly-in, FASEB has had an increasing number of bipartisan interactions with both House and Senate offices which has led to stronger support for our priority issues and opened up new relationships with key members of Congress.

Advocacy Associates did an exceptional job managing our virtual fly-in.  Our members found their unique platform invaluable, and we are excited to weave it into our future physical events. We certainly recommend Advocacy Associates to our friends and colleagues!

Advocacy Associates were crucial in our ability to have the largest, most engaged National Days of Advocacy in our history.  Our organizations stated how easy it was to navigate through the system, and made their meetings easy to attend and convey the great work that has been done! 

Missy Dugan, Senior VP, Government Relations, Boys and Girls Clubs of America

 

We missed our Hill Day in 2019 due to COVID and did not want to miss out again in 2020. I feel very fortunate to have discovered Advocacy Associates for our first virtual Hill Day. Lincoln, Grace and team were fabulous to work with. They were responsive, professional and prepared for any and all questions. Their platform was easy to use for all. I look forward to working with them again and would recommend their services to anyone looking for a great advocacy experience!

Christine Buckley, Executive Director, Brain Aneurysm Foundation


I have worked with Advocacy Associates, previously Prime Advocacy, over the last two years for the GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer and my experience working with the team continues to be a good and positive experience with both our in person summit in D.C. and more recently virtually. The most recent feedback from our Lung Cancer Voices Summit this past March is that the fly-in web portal was much easier to navigate and made attending virtual meetings effective and easy to do. Thank you Advocacy Associates!

Elridge D. Proctor, MPA, Senior Director, Government Affairs, GO2 Foundation for Lung Cancer


A true partnership has been formed working with Advocacy Associates, and the DDC Public Affairs team couldn’t be more pleased. Working with the Advocacy Associates team to support hundreds of congressional meetings across numerous high-profile clients has truly been a seamless pleasure. Kaytee, Mary Elizabeth, and Bobbie Jo were always at the ready for every request we passed along working in the trenches with us, they were incredibly responsive throughout the entire process, and offered great insights and recommendations for optimizing our events. Their knowledge of the virtual event technology paired with their customer service is unmatched. As virtual events continue to the normal, we look forward to expanding our work with the Advocacy Associates team!

Teresa Stepic, Senior Vice President, Client Relations, DDC Public Affairs


We were very impressed with the structure of the appointment coordination process by the Advocacy Associates staff for our Virtual Hill Day. Even more reassuring, the accessibility and responsiveness of the staff was top notch from the first day of planning through the actual Hill Day. I’d recommend them to anyone in need of Hill Day coordination. 

Ted Burnes, Director of Government Relations, American College of Radiology


Advocacy Associates played a huge role in helping us pull off a successful virtual Fly-in. I can’t thank Kaytee and Lincoln enough for all their help! The communication was top notch and they both were a pleasure to work with. Thanks again!

Chara Bradstreet, Chief of State Relations, National Association of Insurance Commissioners


Our state affiliates REALLY liked the online portal. State captains who have worked on Capitol Hill Day with the Alliance for years told us that the online tool made things so much easier. Having the talking points up on the screen with links to relevant legislation and online reporting saved our affiliates a ton of work. They’ve asked the Alliance to keep partnering with Advocacy Associates in the future, even when we return to our normal in-person visits.

 Jerry Jones, National Field Director, National Alliance to End Homelessness


Advocacy Associates provided professional, responsive services and were able to handle a dynamic situation with a lot of changes and requests to our schedule and participant list. They came through and helped us organize a complex schedule and met our needs, leading to a successful congressional visits day for our organization. They have been easy to work with and I plan to do so again.

Casey Dreier, Chief Advocate & Senior Space Policy Adviser, Planetary Society


The support provided by Advocacy Associates was crucial to the success of our virtual fly-in. We’re truly grateful! Our attendees gave raving reviews and were thoroughly impressed with the ease of the software, the ability to communicate with support personnel when they had questions, and the prompt responsiveness of the scheduling team. It was a job exceptionally well done!

Mickae Lee, Assistant Director, National Coalition for Assistive and Rehab Technology


Advocacy Associates helped my association organize our largest virtual fly-in during one of the busiest weeks on Capitol Hill. My members enjoyed the "user friendly" attendee portal, and I enjoyed working with Advocacy Associates responsive staff who helped the fly-in run smoothly - I could not have managed the transition to virtual advocacy without their assistance!
