OUR STATE

While we work with clients across the country, there’s a special place in our hearts for our home state of Kentucky. Some of us were born and raised here, some have gone and come back and some are cross-country transplants but we all know there’s something special about this place.

We pride ourselves on understanding the heart of Kentucky’s people, politics and media. Whether you’re here to do business, to get the word out or to explore something new we’re here to help.

GOVERNMENT

“Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment, nothing can fail. Without it, nothing can succeed.” –Abraham Lincoln

Consistently at the top of the public’s list of issues, the need for good, well-paying jobs dominate many Kentucky government discussions, as does finding well-trained, dependable employees. Other key issues are healthcare, education, and keeping commitments to government retirees with a pension system that is under-funded.

LOCAL COLOR

We know Kentucky well, and want to share some of our favorite places. Some are well known, others not so much. We add to this list frequently, so be sure to check back to see the latest reasons we think Kentucky is so special.
