What clients say about us
“Your hands were doing the work instead of telling us what to do. We didn’t just get through the hump of needing communications capacity right now. [With DTC,] we got permanent infrastructure, with training materials for the new hire and our whole current team. We have templates for social media kits, press releases. And at the end of the day, we got the person we wanted, feeling supported with room to grow.”
“Outcomes were terrific. The project management was very valuable. People knew what was happening. I fielded way fewer angry phone calls. Before, every day on the campaign was jumping off the cliff, but once DTC started running the meetings, they became a safety net. I didn’t have to know everything. I just had to do my job. And that was a huge relief.”
“DTC helped our members focus their attention on issues and bills despite working in a time-constraint setting like session. When there are only so many moving parts people can pay attention to, and for only so long, you need to create something uniquely impactful. And DTC did that.”
“You totally can and should plan for legislative session. From an organizing perspective; it’s time constrained, deadlines at every single point, you know who your targets arein ways other campaigns don’t. Because leg session is so formulaic, it lends itself to being well prepared so you can hit those beats. DTC understood this and showed up to help us not only hit those moments, but account for the inevitable unexpected moments we had to MacGyver.”
“The project management tools [DTC] gave our team have provided me with the strongest system of team accountability I have experienced in my career. Their ability to bring clear, accessible, and easy to implement project management tools to the work of non-profit political advocacy is groundbreaking and I am hopeful for the change they can create across the field.”
