Strategic Communication

Our objective is always to make the issues and products our clients care about part of the public conversation. To this end, the array of services we offer includes: strategic communications planning and training, public awareness campaign development, communications evaluation, audience development, and special event planning.

Communications Training

When it comes to effective communication, one size never fits all. LMC works with clients to shape strategies that align with and advance their institutional goals. Sometimes, that involves training their staff and partners to become more adept in a particular aspect of communication. Click the mortarboard icon above for details about the training we offer.

Media Relations

In today’s dynamic media environment, connecting with the right opinion leaders is essential. LMC helps clients connect in a timely manner with the reporters, producers, editors and social media providers best positioned to advance their institutional objectives.

Editorial

LMC’s award-winning editorial unit produces high-quality print and digital products that have impact. Whether you need writing, editing, proofreading, or publication support, we can help.

Message Development

Effective communication involves knowing what to say, how to say it, to whom, and when. Clients often come to LMC because their messaging efforts aren’t getting through. Sometimes the problem is message clarity. Other times it’s that the message being sent isn’t suited to the people our clients are trying to reach. We understand the nuances of audience diversity and collaborate with clients to develop strong, clear messages that connect.

Design

LMC’s diverse network of graphic and multimedia designers produce award-winning products for our clients. Whether you need attention-grabbing banner ads for your website, an identity package for a new program, a dynamic cover for your latest report, or a stylish logo to promote a new product, we’ve got you covered.

Multimedia Production

LMC deploys an array of multimedia tools to help our clients stand out from the crowd. Combining still photography, illustrations, animated graphics, video, audio, and other multimedia elements, we create presentation decks, infographics, and explainer videos that inform and engage.

Social Media and Broadcast

LMC helps clients develop podcasts, social media campaigns, radio shows, e-newsletters, and TV productions that allow them to influence, if not control, the narrative. Click the monitor icon for examples.

“LMC helped the Llano Grande Center train emerging leaders to take back the narrative about life in border communities. Some of those same leaders are now on the front lines of the nation’s fight over immigration policy.”

“Dwight and Cheryl took the time to understand our unique communications challenges and then worked with our staff to devise and implement solutions that are helping us fight back against powerful adversaries.”

“LMC recommended a White House policy briefing as a branding mechanism for our fairly new organization. The event was a huge success and established us as central players in green development. It also lifted the conversation among key stakeholders to a whole new level and strengthened our ability to influence public policy.”

Denise Fairchild Executive Director, Emerald Cities

“LMC’s media relations work was critical to our beginning. They simply hit a home run that put us on the map. Dwight Langhum’s ongoing counsel is helping us re-frame the national discourse about the realities of rural communities.”

“When the Kellogg Foundation needed a communications firm that was experienced at working with diverse communities in rural, suburban and urban America, LMC was the perfect partner.”

Ali Webb Former Deputy Director, W.K. Kellogg Foundation

“LMC taught us how to produce our own talk radio show (Lunch with Labor), which is now entering its third season and has reshaped the local conversation about transit and labor. Lunch with Labor won first place from the International Labor Communications Association for labor talk. Without the hard work and commitment from LMC, we wouldn’t be as successful as we are. Thanks to you, LMC!”

David McClure President, ATU Local 1300

“LMC helped us to clearly define “collective leadership” and then produced the communications tools that helped communities across the country implement the process. It’s been great working with them over the years in this fruitful partnership.”
